I’m excited to hear this, listening to guys like Brent Barry and Chris Webber was a headache.

Didn't they do this during March Madness when the regular NBA commentators would shift over to NCAA tournament duties? That being said, I'm sure theres enough professional sports broadcasters in waiting that could fulfill those duties.

Thank goodness. Agreed that they also need to get rid of KG's segment, or make it less awkward.

Thank goodness. It was all sorts of awful.

Agreed on KG's segment. Dude is cringey AF.

They risk straying too far from the original formula that works....remember when they gave Chuck his own show, I think it got cancelled a couple of weeks in.

Aleluyah!

The Jailblazer-like KG programme was a truly revisionist act.
Brining guys like Bonzi Wells trying to ammend their lack of professionalism and thug track record.

I kinda liked everyone except Greg Anthony. He tended to dominate and then took the whole broadcast down.
