NBA approves new media deals with Disney (ABC/ESPN), Comcast (NBC), and Amazon for 11 years, $77 billion. Update: NBA REJECTS WBD's (TNT Sports) deal

If NBC, and even Amazon, come in and blow ESPN's studio coverage out the water...what an embarrassment that will be.

People are talking about Inside the NBA and all, but what about the game commentators? No more Ian Eagle, Kevin Harlan, Brian Anderson since they are signed to CBS/Turner?

 

[Marlow Stanfield]

Yes no one cares about that dude for real they tune in for Chuck most of all.

So... they could put Mike Tirico in there and it would be same?

I expect Amazon to pick up Eagle and/or Harlan especially since they are gonna want big names to establish their coverage. CBS will be fine with them doing NBA there since they don’t have NBA themselves. I expect Brian Anderson to stay at TNT Sports since he is their baseball announcer.

fukk that racist cac... I remember when that clippers player called Luka a "white boy" . bytch ass cac tried to make it a racial slur and pretended to be offended.

Yep and like someone mentioned he was on the wrong side of the Kap kneeling thing.


Plus he always seems happier when Jokic or Luka wins.

Yes

What part of "they can put any WHITE guy in there to do the job" don't y'all understand?

This white guy would flourish moderating the moolies

It’s crazy how many people are saying it’s no big deal Inside the NBA could be taken away…


Earnie is the godfather and no one can replace what he brings. He is the only one who can reel Shaq’s insecure mush mouth ass as well as Chuck


The B team with J crossover, shaq and c Parker is weak as hell.

And he's never clarified or apologized for his comments

Still shocked Kenny kept his composure

Ernie been hosting that show for over 3 decades and you think anyone off the street can be plugged in. Chemistry cannot be duplicated

Bolded is gospel

Amazon/Google is like the rich good looking brother that lives out of town, who only comes back during holidays, but still be having your girlfriend laughing her ass off.

Yeah, you don't want that guy moving back any time soon.

Amazon/Google letting networks breathe for now... but in 2035?? We'll see

WB losing the NBA shouldn't even just result in Zaslav losing his job...he should never get another one as any companies' CEO and should force the industry to go back to have actual people who know the industry in these jobs.
