It doesn't matter how the ABA "passes themselves off." The first focus should be on actually completing the scheduling they've drawn up, with the teams in generally the same place as when they started the season. No TV network is going to touch this league until then, AND until they show t...

IF (pretend that the font is larger for this "IF") the NBA is profiting from the arena deals that were made with NBDL cities (as I understand it, they have managing rights), they probably don't care how poorly the league is running. I suspect not. If anything, the NBA should drop that leag...

"Compation?"
