Is the NBA obligated to accept the match? I wonder if TNT has burned too many bridges in the NBA office by prolonging this.

Saying no could be grounds for a shareholder lawsuit, should they think it was a bad decision financially (unlikely, though)

I think that’s the right TNT has, to match one of the deals. Only thing I don’t know is if TNT has the robust streaming platform that Amazon does.

Will be interesting to see how this plays out. Dream scenario would be this keeps inside the nba and chuck decides to not retire for a bit.

I think Chuck might postpone it, since TNT will get a much smaller number of games now under the Amazon deal. It might be once a week kind of deal. I think the other networks might offer him more money and he could chance his mind.
