NBA on ABC/ESPN Halftime = Terrible!

[Lucky_Lefty]

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.

Problem is his podcast content and personality didn’t translate to on-air conversations or success. Plus, if he was on, he’d whine whenever Nets/Kyrie highlights were on the screen.

I can't even blame Maria, Jaylen, and Jay

ESPN got them on a chokehold to try to make fast points. I'm watching it like, is the half time show only 3 minutes or something?


ESPN has really fallen off

ESPN in trying to make $$$$ off of those NBA broadcast rights they paid for by any means.

unfortunately they have some trash studio and announcing teams

What ?

 

[EarlyEarly]

Jay Williams just had the must struggle breakdown of Rudy Gobert running the floor complete with a malfunctioning screen.

 

[MJ Truth]

I voted no because I’ve never actually seen their halftime show. Is it Rachel Nichols?? Because I’m not willing to watch her gossiping.

She’s sideline reporting during games

Maria Taylor is doing halftime

 

[FAH1223]

I'm gonna keep tweeting at them

ESPN Doesn’t care about the halftime show. They only give them five minutes, while TNT gives like 10-12.

This here

ESPN has overpaid for live game rights and they cut cost every where else

 

[FAH1223]

It's never been good since they got the deal from NBC.

Remember when they used this theme

[Born2BKing]

ESPN needs a new leadership team like a mafukka.

 

[BXKingPin82]

Night and day tonight watching TNT

 

[John Mexico]

Who did Tim Legler piss off? Lmao

I think 15 years went by since I last saw him regularly on TV, and yea he was legit.

Granted I stopped watching ESPN several years ago but they’re unavoidable when watching NBA playoff streams.

Skip Bayless. That clip is still on YouTube, and this was the period I watched ESPN the heaviest and I can tell you that was when I stopped seeing him during the day.

It ain't been the same since. He used to be ALL OVER, but even since he's been at FS1 Legs has been a ghost

 

[2 one 3]

Night and day tonight watching TNT

Bro i turned this chick away from coming over right now because I want to watch the game and smoke in peace and quiet. She got all fussy because I told her I would hit her after the game and inside the NBA.

I can’t stand when bytches know you’re trying to watch the game but want to talk about their day and shyt. I also told her people in general should stop assuming things are about them when they don’t hear the answer if they want.
