In this episode I break down why we’re about to see such a massive shift in the NBA rights deals. I discuss:
— What went wrong with the formation of TNT’s parent Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD)
— Why WBD’s recent financials have been disastrous
— The highly negative impact of WBD signing a new NBA deal at double the cost of the previous one
— Why the deal makes much more sense for NBC and Amazon
— Why the NBA prefers NBC and Amazon over WBD
