NBC Sports is prepared to make an aggressive offer to win back NBA rights after more than 20 years without them.

Comcast’s NBCUniversal is preparing to make a strong bid to win back National Basketball Association broadcast rights more than 20 years after the company lost them to Disney
and Turner Sports, according to people familiar with the matter.

NBCUniversal executives have informed the NBA of their interest, said the people, who asked not to be named because the discussions are private. NBC Sports wants a package that would include playoff games to air on NBC’s broadcast network, two of the people said. Some regular season games could be exclusive to NBCUniversal’s streaming service, Peacock. The NBA could also decide to force media companies to simulcast all games on streaming to increase reach, the people said.

NBC is the place I go if I want in-depth NFL discussion on youtube. Chris Simms kills it.

I'm sure they will find similar talent if they do get the NBA back.

That theme song is legendary

[Patrick Chewing]

Just look at this production from NBC back in 1993. Just spectacular. A little Metallica and a little John Tesh in the intro. EPIC

Maybe it's time to go back to NBC and somewhere they've never been, Fox.

[Lakers Legend#32]

ESPN/ABC/Disney treats the NBA as an afterthought.

And can there be a more boring announcer than Mike Breen?

And a bigger homophobe than Mark Jackson?

Get NBC and Bob Costas back if you can.

FS1 has been using that john tesh music as the lead in for their college hoops the last couple seasons... wonder which network would have the rights in your scenario :lol

[eliteballer]

NBC's coverage was so far superior to ESPN/ABC's it's ridiculous.
