ABC playoff coverage unappreciation thread

[Originalman]

its been damn near 20 years, and the ABC/ESPN presentation is still

Hot at that.

 

[beenz]

I think they have it for 10 more years or something crazy like that its going to be awhile.

TNT should acquire the rights to the john tesh music .

I think nbc still likes to use it for olympic coverage so I doubt it.

 

[H@LLOW]

nbc was that piff.

They still do first time they brought it back I believe was 2008 and I was like that's my shyt team USA gonna murder everyone the GOAT theme is back

 

[El Poyo Loco]

The one thing I took away from NBA on NBC was how good there 1,2,3 announcing teams where with Albert,Costas and Greg Gumble

 

[The M.I.C.]

Damn these intros were piff, I actually remember watching this series as a kid.

The Bulls Theme.

 

[FakeNews]

Man y'all can't let this shyt go

No we cant

 

[distinguishedNOW]

Ask everyone who watches SNF what they think of Costas now.

The same people they watch on ESPN and would maybe be on NBC (and some people like Marv suck now, and do we have to relive Al Michaels calling another Finals?)

Could you imagine Bob Costas trying to make Grizzlies /Spurs life or death like he did every Jordan series?

"Grizzlies.
Spurs.
Game 2.

You know what? I got nothing. fukk it. Play the song already"

*Flo Rida's My House comes on instead of Roundball Rock*

Yup basically.

Yall and this nostalgia shyt always cracks me up. nikkas all of sudden pining for the days of Bob Costas...and in a few months will be shytting on him when he's delivering some dusty take about celebrations during halftime of SNF.

In the 90s, NBC would show playoff tripleheaders on Saturday and Sunday. All day long basketball on free TV, then the nightcap on TNT.

Dr J, Ahmad Rashad, Bob Costas, Doug Collins. Piff pre and postgame coverage, dope intros and the GOAT theme. shyt was a1.

Now we gotta deal w ABC only showing 1 playoff game per day on the weekends, with boring fakkits on pre and post, boring Brad Nessler or whichever cac they got now, lame AF theme song, struggle intro packages. Just lame all around.

It's not even close how much better NBC was. Marv Albert w his "Yes! And it counts!". They made an enjoyable league even more so. ABC brings it down a notch, I'd rather the whole postseason be covered by TNT.

Those Bob Costa's pre warmups had you fekr like you watching Ali foreman

You'd get inside stuff then 3 straight games

Actually a interesting half time show with interviews setting up the next game instead you get corny bedwenches sage Steele, Jalen rose n Collins, where is the sitdown with curry or lebron, where is the emotional story to make me feel for a nikka

Don't remind me bruh

 

[concise]

It's a west coast game, it ain't supposed to be catered to the east. who the fukk on the west coast can watch these games that start at 3:30/4pm our time? of all the complaints, this time shyt is if you care about the game that much, going to bed at 1 a couple nights a week won't kill you. Us on the other hand, your boss ain't trying to hear you need to leave early to watch the playoffs

10:30 pm start on a Sunday tho.

I cant stand Costas but he was that dude back in the day

 

[ISO]

Who the fukk cares flip the channel to the next game...

Breen is as good as Marv Albert, Jalen Rose, Doug Collins, and Sage Steele at halftime with the hip hop themes nothing wrong with that, you nikkas complaining about some god-damn theme songs and corny ass intros. Foh.

Those were the days----when the players seemed like grown men

Even if NBA On NBC did come back it wouldnt be the same since im grown now and the player mentality has changed with the times. The game was better when it seemed like players/teams actually hated each other instead of this buddy buddy shyt today

This bullshyt old nikka rhetoric how cliche...

 

[trollol]

someone needs to call out jalen rose on his awkward ass singing and cracking jokes

dude is not funny or entertaining.. nikka is straight cringe-worthy and corny

 

[The American]

Millenials lost. They didn't enjoy MJ in his prime, nor Tyson or Hogan, or Michael Jackson or Prince, or the NBA on NBC. Kill yourselves, fakkits

bruh and the dude who made this thread the same cat who made the sign in if you're watching every game thread. nikka the 1st one to complain

Bruh, I ain't seen the nba in a minute, so I was ready to dive in headfirst and watch erry game until I dealt with ABC and I was like wtf is this gay shyt.

10:30 pm start on a Sunday tho.

They need to schedule quadrupleheaders on the weekend and they get more ratings with a late night game than a morning jawn.
