Whoever wins this championship everyone will discredit because of all the injuries. Then they’ll be called frauds. Then if they lose the next year people will say see they weren’t REAL champions. Goalposts are always moved
Mind you this guy is a Knicks-Nuggets fan, but I never thought about the NBA being like the MLB too.

@ you keep saying everything is good. Nobody saying the league is in danger. But outta that group you just named who would say stands out from a marketing standpoint?

Ya'll like a new random champion every year or do you prefer that one dominant/dynasty team (Spurs/Lakers/Heat/Warriors) winning 2+ chips in a span of 5 years or so

lakers when they lost to celtics had an injured bynum
warriors when they lost a couple times had injuries to durant and klay
lebron lost in the finals when kyrie was injured
idk why ppl acting like playing basketball alot is bad for NBA players
there are more injuries, and more injures to stars than ever. sa

The whole NBA needing a face thing is more for the casuals tho.
Basketball fans will watch regardless.
Guess we can hang our hats on that.

He had to issue public apologies in 2022 and 2023.
One for the homophobic video he posted on IG, and the other for when the messages of him be mean to the chick he wanted to get an abortion
He is being marketed heavy because people have short memories.
But I am sure Silver doesn't want him to cause anymore negative PR for the league in that way while he is getting a marketing push.
A couple time people will right it off as just a you g guy doing dumb ****. But if it becomes a regular thing then a bad reputation might stick to him.

Tatum. He’s got the most endorsements deals and has had the most success. But he hasn’t won yet. It’s going to be hard to push one guy with the way parity has been recently
But outta that group you just named who would say stands out from a marketing standpoint?

Remember he posted a video to IG mocking watch he thought were gay men on the street
And had to issue a public apology

Personally I think we can look past both of those things considering NBA fans looked past Kobe's actions in Denver.
Ant's actions were low brow, but not crimes.

Ants dodging those homophobic jokes and begging that chick for an abortion.
But yes, Adam will definitely do all he can to keep Ant in check going forward.

Regardless of how you feel about him as a basketball player, he’s been the most marketed player under 30 in the league next to Giannis. And it’s like not even close

Tatum barely gets MVP talk.
He got the most deals cuz he been in the league longer but he's not more marketable than Ant. Ant's game and personality flashes more.
Let Minnesota win 64 games next year, Ant is winning MVP.

Honestly who cares who the face of the league is
All these dudes are marketable both in the states and globally.
Regardless of their level of immaturity, kids will still be buying their kicks/jerseys

Sidenote
Tatum's Sofi ad is low-key one of the nastiest things out
Fambs telling black people go build generational wealth by doing business with a corporate bank. What kind of Reconstruction Era marketing is that
The same bank that wanted to sue the Biden Administration over student loan pause and later forgiveness because it would cost him millions as a result of less people taking out refinancing loans with them.
Not even touching the way it kinda erases his dad from his upbringing.
I rather hear Shai and Chet do another duet

Only thing possibly stopping Ant from being the face of the league is Minnesota. The IG girl stuff nobody cared about that, the gay joke went away after like 2 weeks.
He primed for that spot and the best thing is he's the only one that wants it. I think Ja wanted but he blew it. Zion ate himself out that spot. Luka is a dawg too but he's not relatable enough.
