Not gonna lie, I used to watch some of those shows like First Take with SAS and Max Kellerman, Undisputed with Skip and Shannon, The Herd with Collin Coweherd (or however the hell you spell his name) and Chris Broussard (who puts an unnecessary emphasis on everything), NBA on ESPN with former pros who can never seem to hide their bias like Paul Pierce, Ryan Hollins, Chauncey Billups and Jalen Rose, the one with Cris Carter and Nick Wright (who should really be called Nick Wrong), etc, etc.
I stopped watching all of that these past playoffs since all they talk about while 16 teams are competing to win is what LeBron ate for breakfast, how's LeBron spending his off-season and what that means for the NBA and what's gonna happen in free agency which was months away. Also, there is no legit analysis within any of those folks, it's just a bunch of talking heads who just say whatever the heck comes to their minds and out of their mouths. They also contradict themselves every other week. Overall, most of the NBA media is a joke and unless you wanna see some cheap entertainment revolving around a bunch of older men pointlessly yelling and arguing with one another I suggest to go search for some NBA YouTubers for those that want unbias and quality analysis about the league/sport.
Now I've always been aware that these guys are not to be taken seriously and that they're here for entertainment pusposes, but I can't even find this as entertainment anymore when it's just a bunch of dudes spewing random stuff at one another or discussing about topics that amount to nothing.
PS: Shout-out to the NBA on TNT crew, those are the only NBA media guys that I still like watching. Keep it up boys!
