NBA On ABC Had A Rough Sunday
Monday, February 11, 2008
I missed most of the NBA action this past weekend, but lucky for me a few people caught some pretty funny mistakes during ABC's broadcasts. The first one came during the first contest of the day between the Spurs and Celts. Recently demoted MNF sideline reporter Michele Tafoya had an interview with Paul Pierce at halftime, and completely botched his name heading to the break. Via USA Today...
ABC/ESPN's Tafoya, ending a halftime interview with Celtics forward Paul Pierce on ABC's Boston-San Antonio Spurs game Sunday: "Thanks, Bruce."Smooth Michele. The highlight though was during the Lakers-Heat game though as the online graphic seemed confused about the trades that went down that past week. Via Ballsiest...
I know I'm being pretty picky here, but these things seem to come up every weekend with ABC. Hopefully they can get things together in time for the Playoffs when people really start watching the NBA. They only have about 3 months left to figure things out.

Does that mean that the Grizzlies got Shaquille O'Neal, and the Suns are keeping Shawn Marion?
You left out this doozy by Breen "Davis has been handling a lot of balls lately."
"They only have about 3 months left to figure things out."
To be honest, ABC has had half a decade to figure it out and they still suck.
Tim Brando was no better at the end of regulation of the Clemson-UNC game last night on FSN: "North Carolina has enough time for a Valpo play. The one Drew Barry hit in the tournament."
So that's why Berman had a bitch fit, because ABC can't do anything right.
