Case in point, TNT, ESPN and ABC had their most watched NBA seasons in history (tied with last year), the playoffs were the 2nd highest rated since ’03 (2nd only to last year) and NBA playoffs games are the top rated programs on cable tv for the entire month of May. Oh and lets not forget that the league is much, much better than it was 10 years ago or so. There’s a whole new generation of good players who entered the league in the past few years and nearly every team has at least a few players worth watching.
As far as LeBron, I agree with Oakley.
