[FreshWesss]

I think you're correct.

Imagine this being the intro for NBA 2K12.

[SimuLord]

All it needs are a couple of golden arches and this could've made a great McDonald's commercial back in the day.

[ItsTheCos]

@Mark271792 Yeah, ABC/ESPN are pretty bland with their coverage. But ESPN's theme song from 2003-2006 actually wasn't bad. It's the current theme that's bland & boring.

[Mark271792]

@MrDariusJWilliams Me too. I also wouldn't mind CBS getting the NBA back. I was too young to remember when the NBA was on CBS, but from seeing their intros and coverage, they were terrific too. ABC and ESPN blow.

[MrDariusJWilliams]

@Mark271792 I wasn't around for the Magic-Bird era, but I can see the symbolism. Hopefully NBC will gain the rights back to the NBA soon. ABC/ESPN took NBC over for NBA coverage 4 years after the previous lockout (1998-99). Maybe this is a sign.

[Mark271792]

@MrDariusJWilliams To me, it also symbolizes that he was closing up the Magic-Bird era (you notice Magic and Bird were behind the screen Jordan was pulling down) and starting his. Very symbolic and at the right time since this was made in 1991.
