No Lebron James No problem? NBA playoff ratings sees its highest viewership in a decade

[Trojan 24]

Most of the players did not want to be at The Bubble.

Under real playoff conditions Lebron got bounced out in the first round in The West.

Don't try and blame the squad he had or "AD going down" because y'all Legroupies swear Lebron is still a Top 5 NBA player and better than KD

Reggie Jackson and Ty Lue dragged the Clips to the play in game without Kawhi and PG. Meanwhile Bron was the Black Minny Kevin Love, all stats no impact

 

[MostReal]

People have been SICK of the Lebron James narrative in the NBA. It's a breath of fresh air

 

[MostReal]

This thing that Lebron pushes ratings is one of the biggest lies of all time. Steph pushes ratings not Lebron. Lebron only pushes ratings when he's paired with Curry

Facts Lebron only pushes NBA talk off the court, not the actual game

 

[Easy-E]

Lebron's been old since he got to LA.

This is not gonna be like post-Jordan. Respectfully.

A supposed top 5 player in the league couldn't lead his squad to a damn play in spot and more than 34 wins?

To be 37 and folks finding nourishment in a failure that regularly happens to 37 year old players.

It's also the first season during normal schedule in a couple years

That’s why basically all of the highest rated finals since 2005 involve LeBron right? Because he’s not a ratings draw…and yes I’m including the non Warriors series. The 2011, and 2012 seasons were the most watched regular seasons since the Jordan era. That was Brons first 2 years on the Heat. They were so successful in fact that it helped the NBA get that ridiculously lucrative TV contract.

You fat ass OGs could do a quick Google search before you talk out your ass.

Oh now him being 37 matters?


But you Legroupies claim that he's a still a Top 5 player


Or has been surpassed and lapped by the likes of KD and his peers (Kawhi, Steph, Giannis etc) or not?


If The Lakers won the chip this year you shameless Legroupies would have attributed it all to him as opposed to younger Anthony Davis

 

[Spliff]

You’re kidding yourself if you don’t think PHX - LAL would add to the ratings.

 

[Karume]

You going out bad.

Seems like you lost your killer instinct

 

[DlAMONDZ]

nikkas acting like Bron is some bonafied draw. The 2007 and 2020 finals were the lowest rated ever

The facts are all there. Curry is by far the biggest draw in basketball. I’m sure Silver is praying he and the Warriors make the finals

 

[FAH1223]

That’s without the Knicks and Lakers being in it. That’s why I never pay attention to people that say shyt like “the league is better when so and so is good” narratives. People just want to see competitive games more than anything

ABC needs to have games on all weekend

 

[bigde09]

league is wide open

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

ABC needs to have games on all weekend

they need to figure out a way to not have the 3 games nightly on during the week thing…it should just be 2 ..so they can be focused on and promoted easier

they’d probably have to have like 3 games on Saturday or Sunday though instead of 4 to make that happen though
