The NBA is making their money on the collective power of the NBA brand. Just having huge playoff/finals numbers and continually diminishing regular game numbers and attendance is not good for the overall business. If a few hundred or so games having great viewership/attendance means little if the other 2,000+ games are continually dropping in viewership and attendance.

And the NBA brand is built off what, 10 marquee players? Whose very free agency has become a spectacle and part of keeping the NBA in the headlines well into July. NBA free agency has become an event in and of itself wth the way it's set up

I'm just not sure viewership and attendance are as important to the bottom line as you think. Tv deals and season tickets are carrying that financial burden

For the NBA no, by for those other 27 team owners yes. When they aren't making the money they want are left with bad TV deals and low attendance you don't think they will complain. I'm sure those other 27 markets don't want to be turned into the Washington generals that is what the problem is.
