I think he meant in the studio.
He calls games now IIRC.

Simmons>Magic
Magic literally brings nothing for me in that show. Simmons is great at analyzing trades and he is just a basketball nerd who has interesting things to say

ESPN's NFL pregame has been unwatchable for years. Can not make it through a segment. Glad to see their NBA show is of the same quality.

I agree. I cannot watch Chris Berman. I used to love his "back, back, back..." call when I was like 10, ever since then, frick him. They need to overhaul the whole show. I do watch the ESPN fantasy football pregame show though.

People actually watch pre- and post-game stuff on ESPN? I'd rather sit in silence or watch something on DVR or read a book than watch that shite. That applies for every sport that ESPN covers, too.

Listening to Simmons is like listenin to paint dry. Just awful. Like a fricking lecture on the basketball game. No life, no energy, just nothing
While KO fan of magic, Doris fricking Burke is the bes the could do? What a shitshow pregame. frick ESPN sucks in sonny different ways

Definitely the best thing they do. They keep adding shitty elements to it, though. The weekly Tom Rinaldi sob story, the weekly Finebaum troll attempt, David fricking Pollack, Corso can barely talk, Desmond is an idiot. Fowler is one of the best in the biz, though.

The espn fantasy football show at 11 on sunday is actually pretty good.

Good, Magic sucked anyway.

dude is friggin awful. Half the time it seems like he isn't even watching the game they are covering.
TBH most of the former NBA players and coaches suck arse on all channels.
The only ones I really like when it comes to analysis are Chris Webber, Jeff Van Gundy, and Hubie Brown. CWebb is by far the best and most even handed. JVG and Hubie are decent enough but sometimes they get too stuck on certain subjects. However, thats better than most of the other hacks who just sit there with their thumbs up their asses.
Chuck is funny but he clearly doesnt watch that much past whatever game he is covering.
Kenny has admitted before that the only games he watches are the ones he calls for the Knicks or whatever they run on TNT.
Reggie Miller is takes obliviousness to Joe Theisman levels with how he will describe things that flat out aren't happening in real life.
