It was annoying watching highlights of the Lakers Knicks game and they would zoom in on Lavar Balls reaction after every Laker point. Lakers didn’t even win the fricking game and espn did a Lavar interview after the game. No wonder they’re losing viewers in droves. They need to cater to more demographics other than black people ages 14 to 25.

NBA's not losing viewers.

They're up something like 34% in viewers this season.

I have no doubt Lonzo/Lavar Ball has something to do with that.

Sorry, but this is not the only crowd that likes Lavar.

It's ridiculous that they don't know restraint and moderation. Their highlights stop being informative and even representative, but instead they just create the narrative that is best for them and not their audience.

Like when Tiger Woods was popular. Their highlights would be 18 Tiger Woods shots followed by "he's in 17th place, 6 strokes behind (unnamed leader)." They are shameless but they are never going to change.
