The Portland Trail Blazer star Damian Lillard is the youngest NBA player to express concern about the way the game is being treated in the media.

Lillard did not reveal any names , but the five-time All-Star criticized some of those who analyzed Sunday night’s game for a living on Twitter.

« As someone who watches MANY NBA games … not just highlights and boxing scores .. . it’s obvious that so many people talking about the game aren’t actually watching, « Lillard tweeted.

As someone who watches MANY NBA games … not just highlights and boxing scores … It is obvious that so many people talking about the game are not actually watching.

It seems Lillard is implying that many experts and personalities are not watching enough of the league and focusing on clichés or “hot Takes ”to capture your analysis. When this happens, many narratives emerge that may not always be true.

At this point in time, there are more ways to consume the NBA than ever before. There are a lot of intelligent dissections of the game available on a variety of platforms, but there are also a lot of « loud » and low hanging analysis.

We’d envision Lillard seeing more of the former than of the future the latter of NBA media members hopes.
