Bear in mind, though that it's not ABC who runs their coverage of the NBA or any sports, it's now ESPN, and yes, ESPN should have stuck to just sportscenter and baseball. They have no business covering few playoff games, no all-star game, starting coverage in February and dumbing down the game.
I say it's better than what they have no;w, that's for sure!
They should have just stuck with this theme throughout their coverage instead of switching every year. I was actually almost getting used to that song when they changed it, and then again. Now when you think "NBA on ABC", nothing comes to mind at all but average commentators, sub-par coverage, and skimpy playoff coverage.
They should have stuck with the previous music (the one ESPN adopted later on before changing it in 2007ish).

This intro would have been much better with the NBA on NBC theme, and with Marv Albert or Bob Costas instead of Al Michaels.

arguably one of the worst sports themes ever, I'm glad they switched to black eyed peas for the finals.

CBS was way better with the NBA than ABC/ESPN, and they haven't covered the NBA since 1990!
