Ima have to disagree on the overrated part. Have you seen some of these other ass clowns try to do the in game interviews? Sager was a pro. Some of these wannabes can't speak proper English and are incredibaly awkward.

Sager knew when to shut up, but wasn't boring. Loss of nba guys talk, but don't say anything, and the other sideline reporters that take those dumb in game interviews take them too seriously.

Yeah sometimes I can't believe it when a coach actually gives a detailed answer. It's like pop conditioned me to just watch the fucking game and not rely on words. Sager would just take it stride and be like ok there you go folks. Now it's some glorified porn star or a wannabe reporter getting the facts for the people's. Whatever, it's supposed to be entertainment and that's what sager brought.

Definitely lost an nba icon.
They should just pre tape those interviews and pick which b roll shot is most appropriate:-" we need more effort", rebounds, sometimes you just make shots, we need to contest, our guys just don't want to win, LeBron is just too good, etc

And all they've raved about on the local ESPN feed is how that pock marked faggot Popovich liked him so much.

You talk about what's relevant at relevant times. People will talk about the Lakers in five to eight years...maybe.
2016 isn't fucking around tbh. So many icons have bit the dust.
This tbh. What a fucking brutal year

Thought about him a lot this year seeing as he was first given the 3 month to live in like January(?). I thought maybe he had pulled it off and would be back out there sometime this season :depressed

Ali, Prince, Sting, Gene Wilder, Pat Summit, Arnold Palmer, John Glenn and now Sager. A lot of notable people passed away this year.
Sager is one of the most entertaining and polished sportscasters in the industry. I am so glad TNT allowed him to do a final's game for ABC this past June. RIP Mr. Sager. Condolences to your family.

Think the appreciation for Sager around the association is genuine and about more than just his flashy suits. Those guys, players and coaches, respected that guy, likely because he respected them. Not the greatest journalist, but he was definitely a guy who knew how to get people to talk to him and to tell a good story. And through it all, they all appreciated him for just being him.

Obviously well-liked and well-respected and a true professional. Sucks that he only got to do one Finals game. He should've done a lot more. RIP.
