Dominance! The defending champion defeated the Warriors and Lakers. The league was unhappy and the ratings dropped sharply.

NBA regular season, the Thunder faced the Lakers back-to-back. The Lakers are in good shape. Except for James, the rest of the main players are there. I thought they would cause some trouble for the defending champions. Unexpectedly, the situation is similar to the Warriors, or even worse. They were beaten in the first half, vulnerable and disappointing. Do you still want to win the championship?

It has to be said that the Thunder is worthy of being the league's number one team. Without the second leader and defensive pioneer Dortmund, it is still dominant. The Warriors and Lakers are not bad, and their background is there, but the result is that they still can't resist them for two quarters, which is terrifying. If they can stay healthy, they have a high probability of defending the title.

But for the league, it is not happy. They beat their opponents every game, especially when they play against big traffic teams. This will undoubtedly affect the ratings and the interests of sponsors, because fans will leave early, there is nothing to see, and there is no suspense at all. Isn’t it a waste of time? Basketball commentator Wang Meng commented: The Thunder are so not fun! Why spend it again? I really want to watch a good game! Isn't this too unfriendly to the ratings?

I hope there is a team that can create some threats to the Thunder. At present, the Nuggets and the complete Rockets have some hope, especially the former. Jokic, as the league's number one player, has a stronger influence on the game than Alexander. If Murray can break out, there will be no problem. If the Rockets don't have a qualified number one position, it will still be difficult to beat the Thunder.
