In some ways I prefer watching the NBL than the NBA. The quality of the NBL is very high, but there is basically no promotion. Something does need to be done to attract more supporters.

It's going to be tough, but even the NBA was a relatively small operation to begin with. Exposure and sustained interest; the two things any professional sports league needs to survive.
