A thread to talk about NBA Podcasts / Personalities / Announcers / Shows / Broadcasters / Commentators

keep in mind i pay for this service

recommend skipping that one tbh

can understand not wanting to be around jalens mid life crisis fashion

It’s time. After 23 years with ESPN, we have mutually decided to move on. I’ve learned everything I know there, met my best friends there, met my wife there, and leave with zero regrets. I can’t wait to share what’s next.

haha

jacobys always been very nondescript to me. offers nothing

hes pretty good at talking like he should be the host of a show where the rest of the guys are ugly sports experts with terrible voices

where else are you gonna find a guy who's friends with jalen rose and bill simmons??

lol.. and yeah a host could work

FINALLY a Lowe Post that covers the Lakers' trade options

BBC airing 9 NBA games this season, starting with Paris last night and including a handful of playoff games

a transparent bid to advertise League Pass to international fans but I support it

smart.

in other news.. tons of layoffs today at sbnation/vox for a lot of nba writers/media peeps

Basketball code reached its apex in conversation during last year’s playoff series. Brooks also clubbed Gary Payton II with a flagrant 2 call, which led to the Warriors role player fracturing his elbow. Then, the physicality – and the debates of the intentions – heightened when Jordan Poole pulled Morant’s knee for a loose ball to deem him out for the playoff series.

omg why can't these writers actually write?

lmao the fuck are those words

that is atrocious but at the same time it's a random sbnation blogger who you probably shouldn't be reading

I know but I remember early when they started that they could make decent sentences (Ziller in particular), now the site is practically unreadable.

Unwatchable

poor legler just wants to break down some xs and os

This is the worst call of Mike Breen's career (according to him) https://t.co/e0Z74LlNsH pic.twitter.com/4tSKFvL9dY

i wonder if his view got blocked or what he saw w/ the refs after the ball went thru the net

had to be something like that

roundball rock >>>

Timberwolves have a new play by play guy for TV this year, Michael Grady, was the Nets sideline reporter, he's been really great this year and I could see him going national eventually

i like the wolves crew

nba on NBC could be cool

lol immediately thought of the song coming back

just in case no one has seen this, the entire thing is good

one of the all time great youtube videos

*boomer dad with sandals+socks combo* now thats what i call classical music

roundball rock bridge highly underrated imo

KOC getting roasted for this

Brandon Miller just had one of the best performances of the college season amid the controversy: 41 points with the game-tying shot at the end of regulation and the game-winning layup in overtime. pic.twitter.com/81kNMM4B5r

geez, read the room dummy

what a loser

controversy huh interesting

it’s truly demented that that kid is still playing

Georges Niang says he has ‘a lot’ to say about Ben Simmons

“Ben Simmons kinda handicapped us”

it was obvious during the game in philly that niang really does not like him

probably tough to respect someone like simmons when you were a 50th pick who made good and you've made like $12 million in your entire career

this fuckin guy celtics are the top rated clutch team in the league and just beat the sixers by running a beautiful play with six seconds left on the clock what a clown

Celtics got the win but their end-game offense remains a concern against great defenses like the Sixers. Strange lineups, bad ATOs, and far too stagnant.

— Kevin O'Connor (@KevinOConnorNBA) February 26, 2023

non-nationally televised knicks-celtics game with mike breen on the call on MSG is a nice bonus of living in nyc

“DID WE JUST SEE WHAT WE THINK WE JUST SAW?!”

Dan Le Batard tells Stephen A. that he HATES what he and @SkipBayless have done to sports television.
