Anyone else notice that the pregame show and the halftime show have been almost identical throughout this season? A lot of the same content, same quotes, same videoclips, etc.

They should at least try to be original and steal ideas.

That's why you always need to check the batteries on the remote control.

It probably costs a good amount of money to put those pieces together - equipment, writing, editing, production, salaries, etc - so they want to make sure everyone sees it - as not everyone is watches the pre-game show.

We have Matty and Steele before the game and during half time as well. Plus we have a rotating 3rd member of the broadcast as well - Dante, Whatson and others.

What do the other teams that is different?

btw im not complaining im just saying what i noticed, usually the teams i have watched for example, bucks, twolves, lakers. and clippers off the top of my head, have a studio of analysts or something similar to tnt or espn and that's where the pregame and halftime are usually held then they send it out to the braodcasters and sideline reporters (ie whit watson, paul kennedy, guokas, and steele for us) so it just makes it feel like the game is a bigger event with more coverage....
