I don't follow NBA, but there is !nba@lemmy.world with 300 posts, 1200 comments, and 3200 subscribers. I can see a lot of posts have <20 comments, but it's off-season. And as the mod of !usmlr@lemmy.ml I can say that currently Lemmy's federation is making cross-instance live match threads problematic. So I imagine that by next season enough people will be more actively posting and the federation issues will have improved.

Yea, that's the hope. I'm subscribed, but a lot of the value is knowing I'm catching the latest news. If news broke in the last 5 minutes then it's on r/NBA. If I can't count on that then the value diminishes significantly. Hopefully the community will grow as will the activity.
