The NBA’s media rights aren’t up for another three seasons, but that hasn’t stopped league Commissioner Adam Silver and Warner Bros. Discovery President and CEO David Zaslav from discussing them publicly. Andrew Marchand and John Ourand give their perspective on how the media landscape is shaping up and what you should expect as negotiations start to heat up.

Marchand and Ourand ask for Kimes’ opinions on Saturday, Dan Orlovsky and, of course, Sunday Ticket.
