[StanOfGB]

Lebron James...da dat datda daa...Lebron James!

[shermbri]

Somebody goin in for the slam

HA

[shermbri]

a Six! 0 run

[alantmac]

Reggie Miller's lookin' good.

[EgaoNoGenki]

"...and BOOM Goes The Dynamite!"

[vfgjhj]

he's just naming off all the stars at first.

[HYPHYDUM408]

I actually thought that was pretty professional, someone else woulda walked off set or been staring at the screen goin "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

[physicalgrafiti12345]

Wow he did an excellent as he was just going off the top of his head.

[dublinbetch]

fair play to him for laughing through it and not getting flustered... funny clip!

[Jobrosfan01]

He is an AWESOME reporter and he is so cool for what he did.

[tommyshanahan]

He was great, a real pro. What a recovery. You see he is reading off a script .. someone stuffed up the script

[KASH1208]

:17 TIE THE GAME AT 26 22, LMFAO

[cdylan13]

lololol

[KottonMouthKing13]

LOL "umm...ummm...Lebron James!"

[seether18]

fucking moron

[thelakersforlife]

how can you be a sports caster and not know that was Antonio Mcdyess

[dddoughboyyy]

that was cliff robinson

[wcastro24]

you think he got fired? cuz that'd be bogus

[senatechops]

haha good recovery

[Busbrain1]

It's not his fault just be aware. Whoever wrote the teleprompter did not know how the highlights were done..the anchor gets blamed for everything.

[azbobbybooshay10]

Kudos to the guy for not just freaking out, he managed to recover nicely! At least he admitted that he got off track and was trying to find his place, instead of just making shit up as he went.

[cuttinedge1]

LMAO

"theres someone going in for a dunk"

[BenVonBen]

poor guy, the person running the video started it too soon, and then the person running the teleprompter didn't catch up...oh well, pretty good recovery.

[crossbones2005]

that's what happens when you don't edit your own video and write your own scripts ... you look like an idiot.

There's more to being an anchor than just a body in a suit, you have to do your research.

[ParkourBlog]

shhhh, he did good...don't see you doing it

[jibbers0]

lebron james does...da da dada da daaaaaa lmao

[droidean]

he kept his composure.

[himrchp]

jim, your fired.

[xanthophobia22]

nice recovery im impressed

[bosoxfan4205]

This is one of the best saves I have ever seen a sports reporter pull off. It isn't his fault he messed up. The production staff didn't get him the info matched up with the highlights. A sports reporter's job is never easy. It's hard to stand on camera and talk to several thousand people.

[G00157142]

you'd be surprised how hard it really is. the dude didn't do too bad, they just started the tape earlier than he expected. he probably got flustered. he rebounded well though, no PUN intended, ha ha ha

[js2594]

he dosent even no the players how can he be a sport reporter i can do better

[jakecreamer]

He redeemed himself.

[bosoxsuck94]

i remember seeing this live. it was funny

[yankeesdude21200]

lmao tying up the game at 26-22

17 secs

hahaha

[mrl86]

This is actually not that uncommon. It even happens on national networks like ESPN from time to time, and it's really more the fault of the copy-writer or the person creating the clip than the on-screen talent (though in the case of a local station like this appears to be, they very easily may all be the same person). At least the guy was able to laugh about it.

[fearthedreadlox]

Sweet

[marksun18]

he is good. well done

[jsm104]

guy handled it like a pro

[wowz98]

a blunder for the guy that holds the prompter, sure, but not the dude speaking. he held his own pretty well.

[LockyGun]

good rescue

[Hixlol]

that dude is a dumb ass

[thunderstruck665]

That had nothing to do with him. That was a control room error. The video footage was cued up at the wrong spot.

[ardvark55555]

FAKE

[kirmabro]

how the fck was that fake your so dumb

[loafbeans]

why would they fake something like that? Ur saying he would purposely mess up on a live news broadcast and humiliate himself? that doesn't make much sense at all.

[3804gs]

HAHAHAH this is hilarious....LOL

[shiaobundan]

lol!
