You had great characters as the face of the league before Lebron. Magic and Bird had great character. Jordan was the gold standard, classy guy. Shaq and Charles, great sense of humor and great characters to carry the game. Then Kobe had great character, you never caught Kobe acting like a jack-ass. He was a really mature guy, spoke two languages, had solid parenting in his life, came from a good family. The guy not only spoke to the hip-hop culture by dating Brandy and all that, but the guy could actually rap, but wasn't trying to pretend to be hard or any bullshit like that, he was just who he was, and on the court he was as "hard" and solid as anyone in the game, without pretense. He did it with class and character. And all the guys I mentioned were all articulate in interviews and press conferences and didn't speak in sports cliche' or need notes to speak to media.
Then you got woke ass Lebron trying to get political and be Muhammad Ali, but he doesn't have half the character of Ali.

created inorganic superteams that he could pad his stats on to create a fake goat narrative

DMX was on point in this clip on all the rappers that were brought up. 8)
I guessed he would have said that because you never really heard him try to change his sound or style away from the type of shit that he came up doing. He's a bit like me, and Suge Knight, and other type of cats---trapped in 96!

in an effort to make the NBA a worldwide league to which they have succeeded they in turn alienated some American fans
I cant blame them though the NBA is a business and they are making tons of money in part due to their global merchandising

yeah.. and I get annoyed by the political cheer-leading.
Like the Republican side I will see all these posts and claims on Social Media like, "NBA ratings crash, blah blah blah"
And I'm always thinking to myself... then why are player salaries going up? And what about the foreign markets?
