NBA on ABC/ESPN Halftime = Terrible!

[Paper Boi]

I mean ESPN has better announcers than TNT as a whole right now so pick your posion.

I’ll take Reggie Miller if it gets Jay Williams off my screen. but honestly they both have their flaws. like i said before pay SAS all that money to do what he is good at and that’s talk about basketball. stop working that man to death to talk about the NFL

Jalen is fine he offers both entertainment and analysis. They then need a former superstar to anchor it (which ESPN doesnt have under contract, it’s not t-mac let him keep playing with rachel nichols far away from NBA games)

then they need a better main host

Been this way. I always wished TNT could subcontract with Disney/ABC for the TNT crew to run the finals. Never made sense the GOAT sports show doesn’t get to finish the season with us

I know CBS and Turner got a thing together for March Madness. Maybe expanding the TNT deal to include CBS might be the work around here.

Hubie brown is my favorite. I'm gonna be sad when he dies

Agree and at the same time

 

[Big Boss]

Ssshhhiiiiddd, 5 minutes is a stretch. More like they get 2 minutes to say something ("they need to play better Defense", " I want to see *insert star player here* to insert himself and get buckets"),

And then finish off with a Jalen rap reference and they go to 8 minutes of commericals

 

[1thouwow]

ESPN don’t even give a fukk either

 

[MikelArteta]

Legler gets 5 mins at 1 am, gotta keep the real commentary in the back

and those 5 mins are excellent

hubie brown is 87 and is still one of the best out there.

well Marv is a bout to retire so TNT lead announcers will be Harlan & Ian Eagle

then Reggie (who I don't mind), Haywood, Hill, & Jackson are shytting on what ESPN got

TNT is getting ready to put a stranglehold on being the better spot for NBA coverage

 

[AVXL]

3 constants in life:

Death, taxes & the Coli complaining about ESPN’s coverage of the NBA

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Co-sign. Legler is really good and has been for many years, yet they use him as a fringe part timer. Idiotic shyt really.

I didn’t even know he was still an analyst. Haven’t seen him in so long.

That's one thing I don't understand.

He's the best at breaking down the game at ESPN yet he's buried late night

Why is he not on count down?

Maybe he's

never understood it..

seen his role decrease year after yeaaar ..but he isnreally 1 of the best they got



espn needs to get it together ..breeh 2 qualified for this minamilist role they got him in

Jalen Rose hip hop references are so forced

 

[tremonthustler1]

Nobody wants to hear his magical trade machine talk

Them Ringer pod numbers say otherwise.

ESPN is convinced that basketball viewers don’t want to talk about basketball, so a lot of the meat and potatoes hoops discussions get relegated to podcasts. They’re more focused on the personalities (which is futile if they’re trying to be on TNT’s level).

Disney is spreading the talent too thin.
