i know that nba is not popular at all and its fanbase gets smaller and smaller each year, but i was just wondering if any nba fans out there watch inside the nba. ive been watching it for years and i really think that it is an incredible show. their chemistry is fantastic.

    haha yah thats great. i love when they take charles' face and put it on someone else's body, usually really out of place like a skinny white person. also in the playoffs, the fishing pictures are funny, idk if u remember that.

    not popular? it's neck-in-neck with baseball
    when it comes to international viewership.
    Chuck, Ernie and Kenny are the most enjoyable analysts.
    PTI is second. The rest are crappy, especially Screaming A & Hippie Walton on ESPN. They are terrible to watch.
    C, E & K needs to on TBS. I don't get TNT. :mad:

    TNT is by far the best in NBA telecasts, although ESPN does have the enjoyable announcing team of Breen, Jackson and Van Gundy. It sure would be interesting if the Knicks ever got good enough to have this announcing team do a game on ABC or ESPN.

    Even with all the shit baseball is going through right now it's dominating the NBA in both viewers and ticket sales. Unless you meant that it only dominated international viewers.. well than I might give you that, and only because there isn't as many TV's down Latin America :P But overall, I might have to say that only second to Soccer (FOOTBALL!), Baseball has the most fans world-wide.

    yah, internationally because there are so many great international players. but i dont hear too many people talking about the nba and it has definitely become less popular than it used to be. and this pisses me off because it is so exciting now with all the great teams in the west.

    JVG is probably the best coach
    turned play-by-play commentator out there right now. He's funny.
    Hubby Brown is boring as hell.
    can't think of any other ones.

    exactly. and earlier in the season when he said that his goal was still a championship. he is fucking idiot and i cant wait for him to leave and someone to undo all of the damage he's done to such a great franchise...if thats possible.

    Baseball has Latin America/Asia, not much interest elsewhere.
    but basketball is getting bigger in Europe, Asia(mainly China), and South America.
    Even Australia has a few big names in the pros: Andrew Bogut and the sexy Lauren Jackson in WNBA. that will give them some interest.

    hubie brown is the john madden of basketball. he knows so much about the game and i love listening to him. he also knows exactly what he is talking about. the man breathes basketball.

    I agree with you on Hubie Brown, he's great on the Xs and 0s and his energy for those games is great.

    by the way, Barkley is on Letterman now and said the following when he discussed the Knicks:


    "It's not good and said it's going to be a while and there's no hope."

    all of this as the studio audience laughs.

    haha he is right, unfortunatly. its kind of sucks to be a knicks fan. i mean, think of how many championships we would have had in the 90s if not for jordan. now isiah comes and digs a hole that is going to take such a long time to get out of...the need someone besides isiah! rick carlisle?

    he makes me want to stab a fucking pencil through my eye. god i hate boston sports, even though i do respect the old celtics teams that red auerbach coached. i consider him one of my role models.
