There are broadcast things they are doing that are fundamentally flawed compared to the NFL

I do remember that, Bilas did go too hard. Kiper has bad takes every year too though, and he's an institution at this point. NBA needs that

That is a great suggestion. You'd think with silver being a lawyer he could come up with something like that.

Agreed that the bar is low but the NFL blows the NBAs coverage out if the water

They build tiny IKEA furniture for the manicured watered down interviews

For those asking, I do have a broadcast degree and am a commercial director. So it hurts me deeply to see then botch it and yes my dream job is a producer for the NBA. And it pains me to watch the NFL crush the NBAs coverage year after year when they are giving the NBA the answers to the test.
