So sad about Sager, don't even feel right without him.

Hope he recovers well.

*turns on Spanish audio*

Why do people hate Reggie so much as an announcer?

This man Shaq has on jeans.

Can't be easy to find clothes his size. Gotta give him a break

He could have worn some of his old clothes

They just decided to do this last night at the production meeting. The guys fly in to Atlanta in the morning except for Ernie who lives here. Shaq shot up to Gwinnett and did the best he could. Sheesh you guys are intense. It was just a last second idea one of the producers had.

Just caught that Teague stepback on Turner.

I'm starting to hear this talk about "not crowning the heat to early" "its hard to go 4 times in a row" "statistics say 4 times lessen your chance" 

all these comparisons to past teams going down on 4th runs to finals etc..

Where is all this coming from all of a sudden? Max Kellerman of Sports Nation or something?
  

Or maybe some of us have been following the NBA for a while & have a good understanding of its history.

I agree, he's not as bad as people make him out to be but he did just say Tony Parker was on a 4-2 run.

lol

It always confuses me.  I figured it was just because people hated him as a player or w/e

Reggie and Webber have their moments both good and bad. Overall I approve. Same with Kerr actually

Pops over the years with Sager

 @ that Pop and Sager bit.

It's so awesome that we can watch a Spurs vs. Mavs playoff series w/ Duncan, Dirk, Parker, Ginobili in 2014.

This will be gone soon.

Damn ESPN does it again, tells people how to talk basketball

It's not ESPN.. it's just looking at history. 4 straight Finals is hard to pull off in the first place.. winning 3 in a row is even harder. Especially when Miami has clearly been coasting.. most of us are expecting them to turn it on for the playoffs, but there's also the chance they're just not as good as they were last year. We'll see where they're at in the opening round.

I still have them making it to the Finals, but I'm less confident in their chances once they get there.

Oh I get the numbers and also agree they aren't as good as last year.
Just found humor in hearing the "4 times" talk as of late, but only after hearing Max Kellerman make that case on an ESPN tele show.

Heat do go down though to Spurs on my bracket

Thz for uploading. I F with it.

 

[pmatic]

Tony Parker is ridiculous.

 

[antidope]

So much paint scoring

 

[awwsome]

Webber is way better than Reggie and Kerr.

Better analysis, more knowledgeable, just genuinely more excited about the game.

He gets into a bit of hyperbole but who doesn't.

I wouldn't say Webber is more analytical nor knowledgable than Kerr. I enjoy Webber and Kerr more than Miller though

oh cmon dirk

What! but that's why I like him on NBATV

 

[nicelikechrist]

my god

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Kerr has more knowledge of the game in his pinky than C Webb

 

[big j 33]

Reggie's voice annoys me.

And his face.

And his bald head.

And everything he's about.
