Lakers being relevant is good financially for NBA.


The lucrative local TV deal they have is in about year 4-5 of 20. The NBA's new deal with TNT/ESPN is in year 1 of 9. I'm sure a good Lakers team is better for ratings, but with the renewal of the current deals so far out I doubt the league feels any pressure to help them. LeBron vs. the Warriors is a great story line for now and the Playoff Ratings have been doing pretty well.

With a 5.4 rating in metered market results, the Celtics vs. Wizards series-clincher scored a five-year high for TNT in the metric. Monday night’s match-up was the best NBA non-Conference Finals results ratings that TNT has had since March 21, 2012 when the LA Lakers played the Oklahoma City Thunder.
