Colin Cowherd blasted the National Basketball Association’s ratings collapse because the league has failed to give the fans what they want and compared that epic collapse to what has happened with the Democrat Party.

In a recent broadcast of his The Herd show, Cowherd noted that NBA commissioner Adam Silver has done a good job addressing CTE problems and has “navigated a multitude of cultural changes.” But Silver’s “tinkering” has strayed so far from what the fans want that TV ratings have collapsed.

Cowherd said, “He tinkers, he evolves.” Meanwhile, the NBA ratings are down 48% in the last 12 years, and they have fallen off a cliff this year. Adam Silver’s solution is, “Let’s make the courts brighter.”

Yet he went on to call the NBA “embarrassing.”

“And I like the NBA, but the All-Star game is now embarrassing, and I think load management is a shame on the league. It is a really bad look for a family of four to go to a game, and Giannis doesn’t play, or Embiid doesn’t play,” he continued.

“I’m sorry. Go ask the Democrats. Be warned. Once you detach from regular people in America, you will pay a price. And it is not easy to run these leagues,” Cowherd warned.
