TNT Hires PJ Carlesimo As An Analyst (http://awfulannouncing.blogspot.com/2009/03/tnt-hires-pj-carlesimo-as-analyst.html)

TNT sent out a press release this afternoon saying that Sacramento Mayor, Kevin Johnson, will be on the program tonight, but there is also a small item that was buried deep within said release. Former NBA Head Coach (and Sprewell choking victim), PJ Carlesimo will join the network as an in-game analyst. Carlesimo will be working with Kevin Harlan tonight, and will be on the network's playoff coverage as well....


Following the pre-game show, LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers will take on Gilbert Arenas and the Washington Wizards at 8 p.m. ET. Marv Albert (play-by-play) will call the game with analysts Mike Fratello and Reggie Miller and David Aldridge reporting. The second game of the night will feature Carmelo Anthony and the Denver Nuggets hosting Deron Williams and the Utah Jazz at 10:30 p.m. ET. Calling the action will be former NBA head coach P.J. Carlesimo alongside play-by-play announcer Kevin Harlan with Marty Snider reporting. Carlesimo will also serve as a game analyst for TNT during the network’s ’40 Games in 40 Nights’ NBA Playoffs coverage. The Emmy® award-winning studio show Inside the NBA presented by Hyundai with Johnson (host), Barkley (analyst) and Smith (analyst) will recap the games.

PJ has been so unfairly screwed in his coahcing career. IE: being fired because his neck got in the way of sprewell's hands.

Great to see him get picked up by the TNT crew.

Good news, we need to counter attack Doug Collin's love for the Lakers with some Spurs love from PJ

He needs to come back to the Spurs.

He could be a creative solution to the lack of scoring we have experienced since he left... i dont remember so many Offensive droughts/slumps when he was in our coaching staff...
