Haliburton and Edwards trying to add some life to this. Bless them for trying but it's inherently boring television.
From a fundamental standpoint it is better for a man to have nothing but be under the protection of Jesus Christ than for him to have everything he could ever want yet be completely without.

Indy is taking this easily and Reggie Miller is going to be insufferable.

What is the point of having a passing section if you make the pass impossible to miss.

I agree that we should scrap this and just do a horse game from now on. Honestly the horse game might be more exciting than recent dunk contests.

Announcing crew is not helping this at all. Where is the added excitement to add ( even though it's hard to be excited w what we just saw).

Would love to have Kevin Harlan (edit I was on the alternative broadcasting w Vince Carter etc)

Heck, there are a lot of people in the SF Bay Area rooting for both (I went to the same high school as Sabrina). I hope they both get hot and just put on a great show. I'll be happy for whoever wins! I think it'll be the highlight of the night.

I don’t understand how such major companies can be satisfied with such terrible products under their name



It is very bad indeed. On my IPad, half of the time when I log on, I can’t even see which teams are playing but I can see the time left in the game. I have to click on the game to see which teams are actually playing. Other times, I hear the audio of the live feed but the video shows the pregame or the crowd, but if I minimize, the small video shows the actual game. And sometimes when I click on a game, I’m given a random feed in a different language.

Living in Australia, I’m at the mercy of League Pass if I want to watch Portland, but the decrease in quality of the app has made me feel like I’ve wasted my money.

It's sucked the past 20 years. It's amazing they've left this component in

Don’t know if anyone else has the in arena stream? But they’re showing a bunch of creepy af face filters on people in the crowd. Allegedly peak entertainment.

In my head cannon everything NBA is called by Kevin.
