    I’d say the NBA is the fourth most popular sport in North America. Most people don’t give a shit until halfway through the playoffs.

    1 & 4, maybe. 2 & 4 no way. Are there NBA teams that draw 2-3M fans? Only dopes and rappers wear NBA jerseys.

    You can't look at attendance as an aggregate as MLB plays 162 games and in larger venues. But as percentage of available tix sold NBA trumps MLB handily (there are no Tampa Bay Devil Ray franchises in the NBA that draw only 69 folks to every game).

    This “dunk the halls” thing on espn 2 (spurs/knicks) is pretty interesting. Kinda like a Nintendo Wii game. Also it’s like a few minutes behind. Guess they have to have time to get everything together with the animation and all.
