EJ will probably end up having more MLB duties. He was calling LDS games in the early 2010s.

I hope NBA stayed on with ESPN because they were the highest bidder and not because they felt like they have to be on ESPN.
This is disgusting ESPN coverage is absolutely the worst in sports, and we are losing absolutely the best.

TNT cannot match the deal because they cannot guarantee the number of ad impressions as Warner does not own a broadcast network. If they want to keep the NBA, they’re gonna have to go to Disney (ABC) or Fox for a joint bid.
Something to watch for the next time the NHL goes through this, which is in 4 years.

Losing Reggie Miller is absolutely not worth the trade off of losing Chuck, Kenny and Ernie.

God I hope this ONE time, ESPN fires everyone on their current NBA coverage team.
Agreed. Like they don’t have to do anything leave everyone in place at the show. In front and behind the camera.

If they were smart (which they aren't) they'd just "rent" everything about the show from TNT - the staff, hosts, production team etc.

The way I read it, maybe it’s wrong, that’s kinda what’s happening. The show will still be produced by Turner, distributed by ESPN.
As part of the agreement, ESPN is sub-licensing some Big 12 media rights.
