}~~~> Official 2024/2025 NBA Thread<~~~{ the finals are here West OKC vs East Pacers)

Why the fuck isn't there some NBA content on right now? Remember back in the day when championship sports rolled around, the networks would place priority on the sport and the regular shit would get moved.

Or better yet, since the NBA buys TV time in bulk now, why not air something if the East & West CF series don't make it to games 5,6, or 7. Have the Inside crew do a season wrap-up show or something. Does anyone even remember who won the IST?

They should be airing something. The NBA is doing themselves no favors with this extra wait. They don't have the power of LeBron v Warriors or Lakers v Boston to keep the attention of the casuals. Some of them probably moved on already, started watching new shows, and completely forgot playoff basketball was happening.

I'm a firm believer in idea that good basketball is good basketball no matter where it's being played but at the sametime with no big market or highly touted stars in this match up, the NBA should be running packages that air on ABC (not ESPN) that give recaps of the season the Thunder and Pacers had, as well as interviews with the players. You can even throw Caitlin Clark's ass in there too. This way you can introduce the teams to the casuals and keep the finals on people's minds.
 
This looks like a really clean A.I. edit ngl
