ESPN Budget Cuts
« on: November 25, 2015, 09:48:35 AM »
Have budgets cuts hit ESPN so hard that they had to send their color guy to the back to check on Henry?  There's no assistants or equipment guys to send to the back?

They made it seem like he broke his neck when it didn't look serious at all.  If it was Ben Simmons, both commentators likely would have left leaving dead air.

... which would have been a welcome respite.

Other than them mentioning the pre-season rankings of henry and simmons one too many times - I actually really liked both of them - the guy had some really neat description of moves by players and the girl was a very astute analysis person -

the guy at one time described henrys game as having "power steering and power brakes" when he went coast to coast and pulled a juke move to the rim - the play he got hurt on I believe - i liked that

the girls was right on that we were getting good lucks almost every time down against ASU and that we should continue to find luke despite his misses - over time he has been a very good field goal perc guy down there -
