And on top of that, they're on the road so the spread probably won't even be single digits lol.

No wants to watch the Lakers? You're joking right? That is precisely why they are the opener.

1. Lebron is the most popular and recognizable player in the world.
2. Lakers is the most prestigious brand in the NBA.
3. Los Angeles is a massive market.
Hardcore fans know this lakers team isn't good. Casuals don't. And casuals drive tv ratings.

A Celtics/Nets game is way too risky for opening night. Every chance Durant & Kyrie don’t end up getting traded & decide to sit out until they do. Couple that with no Simmons yet & you’re potentially left with a team that just went to the finals against a team led by Seth Curry & TJ Warren lol

The league will never learn. Showcasing only certain teams is not the way to expand your reach, and showcasing the Champs against a bad Lakers team even worse.
Could have been against a myriad of other teams.
