Man i miss the good old days so much. U guys remember when the lakers(kobe/shaq) were the champs and there was so much drama and excitement.now its just plain old spurs
It's not just ABC/ESPN, you need a little more to kill this league. You need bad and boring basketball, horrible coverage and a dictator of a commissioner.
The San Antonio Eva Longor....err Spurs, ABC/ESPN and David Stern
AKA the NBA Axis of Evil
Sucking the life and drama out of the NBA since 2003
All we need is great teams, great rivalries and great basketball and that can overcome to two headed monster of ABC/ESPN and David Stern.
Actually, the contract goes until the 2015-2016 season. Which is BULLSHIT!! Good ridence ESPN/ABC, you are going to expect a BIG decline over the next eight years.
That why the NBA sucks on ABC u hardly even care who's playing or winning. When it was on NBC u didn't even want to miss the intros cuz they were that GOOD!.
I like it a lot. I'm hyped for this game and it already happened. That's what ABC lacks completely. They have zero ability in getting me excited for a game, for real. TNT's isn't too bad. ESPN's is iffy. But ABC's just plain sucks with that "Right now" crap.
great video, I get a rush every time I watch it and wonder what if. Only one criticism which is you need more Heat clips to balance it out. The Kobe buzzer beater is great and invigorating but the Heat won the title, rhere should be a full audio+live tv clip of Miami clinching the title in Dallas to remind the viewer who has the crown. But definitely keep the Kobe clip either way.
ABC has done by far the worst job ever covering a sport in the NBA. i mean wow they really dont know how to do it. i used to watch nbc even if i didnt care for the teams. now i can barely watch abc when my team is on there.
ABC needs to take a fucking lesson on how to do promos from this. This beats the hell out of anything they have done since they have bad the NBA telecasts. Somebody from ABC Headquarters needs to take a look at his and hire whoever made this immediately.
Very well said. Can't get people excited about the game if you can't introduce it well. That was made the transition from CBS to NBC so good back in the early 1990s: They saw the power of the intro, and played it for what it was worth.
Hey David Stern (NBA commish),next time,why don't you let NBC and ABC to NBA games.Because though i like ABC & ESPN a little bit,NBC is the best,but keep TNT cause it's good as well.
Yeah, Abc should hand it back to Nbc, because their theme suckass.
