russ has been genuinely awesome in the second half of this year but it is very funny how fast he completely demystified the triple double as a thing

I'm pretty sure my Zogo hot take was Russ leading the Wiz to the ECF as like a 7 seed so I'm extremely down with the play-in

it was an offensive foul on facu that took away the MPJ three that he's attempting with the nuggets down four

It's especially funny because Davis has 50 lbs on Campazzo and also forward momentum.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

He hit the shot that gave the Lakers the lead and blocked a game winning 3 from two feet away.

Ignoring the fact that he already has had an excellent NBA Finals winning run.

What are you even on?

the actually overlays and stuff were really boring, just smoke trails on three point attempts and a characters logo when someone made a basket.

they also had some AR superheros in the very corner of the camera so you could barely see them

the real comedy was RJ taking the piss out of the whole thing in the commentary

The Nickelodeon NFL game (kinda) worked because it was a bunch of stuff that doesn't take itself seriously anyway. Marvel pretends to take itself somewhat seriously (outside of like Deadpool) so there's just not much you can do.

It was a dumb idea but I guess I appreciate them trying to play with the broadcasting format.

The lovely AR TikTok effect looking Black Panther doing backflips killed me. It was so amateurish. Hard to believe that whole thing was put together by the one company that owns all media now.

Well it was probably put together by some subsidiary company run by an executive's dipshit failchild but yeah, one would expect more.

The only good part was the nameplates next to players

Also, I actually liked the look of the foxbox (the part of the screen that shows the scores). It was the same layout as the normal one, just with a slightly more interesting skin. Sorry, I like to nerd out over sports presentation UI

Based on everyons description, this reeks of an executive level comarketing decision that was them passed down to people who literally could not be bothered to give a poo poo becasue the idea was so dumb that they just phoned it in.

The platonic ideal of a Russ game.

Not to get too calling-in-to-the-Nate-Duncan-variety-show but his big problem is his low ts%, what would happen if he just cut his shot attempts in half? Would the passing lanes close up?

the NBA should get rid of jersey patches and encourage teams to put together partner brand theme nights in the arena.

imagine going to a Spurs game and each timeout is filled with players talking about their favourite HEB products. If they win and their team scores more than 100 Brand Synergy points, then each fan walks away with an assortment of coupons. Halftime will feature the HEBuddy guy doing the red panda routine or some poo poo

none of this will be seen on the TV broadcast. It'll be a pure sneaker-squeek feed with no commentary.

Platonic ideal requires him to be 3/27 fg

This was a nice idea. I think traditionalists may not like it but I think it is pretty useful. It's too bad it is not the type of thing that viewers can easily pick or choose without changing the channel.

My gf is someone who only watches basketball to see Zion but also liked the nameplates and wishes normal broadcasts did a similar thing.
