Because the Lakers being bad is the #1 story of the season.
You can't go 3 days without somebody talking about Dwight Howard and Kobe Bryant not being friendly with each other, it's more of a soap opera than pro wrestling.
A personal squabble is the headline of the season.
No, that's why espn sucks.
That's what you get when you let more then half the teams in the playoffs and make the regular season absolutely meaningless![]()
And it's also a product of only having 2-3 teams possibly winning the title.
The reg season is completely meaningless and it's far too long. There is no need for 82 basketball games when only 5 teams are real contenders.

Isn't it the same way with the Cowboys and Jets tho?
Not really, while those 2 teams get attention the NFL was focused on the resurgence of Peyton Manning, the emergence of RG3, Luck and Wilson and who actually is going to be contending for the title.
NBA seems like a cruise control league where we're waiting on Heat vs. Thunder II and since nothing is interesting Dwight Howard and the Lakers become a weekly soap opera.
