ESPN replaces "The Jump" with the "NBA Today"

Good move?

nobody on that core can breakdown a game. Its a shame how much more effort ESPN puts in NFL shows and sportscenter
There’s a reason for that.

Most NFL fans are interested in actual football games, including the majority of the causals. Unfortunately, most NBA fans - even a lot of the diehard ones - are more interested in the gossip and the off-seasons and stats and arguing Bron vs Jordan than they actually care about the actual games. Hell, you could figure that out by just using The Coli as an example.

NFL fans like football talk. NBA fans like stan wars and free agency.

Cannot really compare those 2 who've actually coached in the league vs a career TV guy. Even if they all have the same goals. It's just different levels.

Tbh JVG never getting a gig in the NBA again

If he was going to get another gig, then he would have already gotten it by now. Same as Mark Jackson IMO.

Lineup mid as hell.


Tim Legler be putting in work when he breaks down basketball but yet I never see dude on anything

Legler is regularly on Sportscenter with SVP or at night during the NBA season. But that's at like 11 PM to 1 AM.

IDK plenty of white doofuses have gotten gigs over and over for example Karl, stans bro, etc. But you make a good point

What shows? Outside of live games and the post game highlight show they have no programming


that answers my statement... actual basketball on NBATV, not lackluster hot take shows
you can go anywhere for all that. Twitter, The Coli, Instagram etc

I'd rather watch open court and actual games

Espn is like if I did a weather show as a recap to an actual meteorologist, and then gave hot takes on the weather.
