ESPN2 Heat-Bulls Game coverage

[Despot]

Is anyone watching the Heat-Bulls game on ESPN2, not ESPN (Same game on both channels). What do you think about the way they are covering the game?

Did they do this with the Spurs game?

[SilverPlayer]

I am really enjoy the lack of commercials and the quiet...Its not numbing my mind the way games normally do. The iso cams are pretty tight for someone not as interested in the outcome of the game, but I would hate to watch the spurs this way.

Well, it's been pretty calm, except for when Tirico (sp?) and Pippen were going after each other for awhile.

How do know what's going on with all the ISO and away from the ball cams.

Haven't you heard, basketball is not a team sport!! Silly Spurologist!!

[JsnSA]

I like the cam because it gets closer to the action, but they do need to switch to a wider shot when the action leaves its view too quickly. At least thats my opinion.

Of course if your tv switches channels fast enough you can be the director and go from close ups to wide shots on your own by switching between ESPN 1 and 2.

Pip's voice is kind of like Barry White, he could be yelling about anything and I would just be chilling to it.

Did they have a better angle of Haslem tossing his mouthpiece?

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

That was pretty damn funny.

You learn something new everyday. It might be off the wall but new nonetheless

I just saw one angle. Of course quick trigger crawford strikes again. It would have been funnier if the mouth piece hit him. :lol

[E20]

Waste of a channel, why not show post-game news confrences or something else, like old playoff games. :lol

I thought it was a legit toss.

Substitute anything (towel, headband, etc.) for the mouthpiece and it's an ejection as well.

Don't fuck with Crawford ... Although I wouldn't have either with that look on his face.

BTW, I love the camera angles on the Duece, but I wish I didn't have to listen to FOUR voices.

Maybe if they had a splitscreen, one on the iso, the other on the team play. they were running the iso where you could see all the action, but it was from all the way across the court, players were too far away.

especially when they don't often know shit about what they are talking about.

...wrong thread

[Tek_XX]

it's interesting but they need charles Barkeley

[missmyzte]

I've got baseball on my ESPN2??

But speaking of Heat/Bulls - go Chicago!!!!

[MI21]

This game is going down the wire.

Gordon and Wade, 2 of the most clutch players in the league to go at it hopefully.

[phyzik]

Man, I would like to face the Heat in the finals but I would laugh my ass off at all the bandwagon heat fans if bulls upset.

[MI21]

Wade was 4-16 now is 8-20 and is getting to the line every trip.

Not sure there is a better 4th quarter player in the league, he is certainly Top 5 in that regard though.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Heinrich is an Idiot for not giving the ball to Ben Gordon on the last possession

[MI21]

Timeout Bulls, down 3 with the ball, 18.2 seconds left.

You'd expect Gordon to be the one to launch up the 3 ball.

[Spurologist]

Gordon = clutch. watch out for the triple

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Hinrich fucked this game up for Chicago.

:td

silly Despot!!

[phyzik]

If Chicago can give Miami this much trouble through the rest of the series, Miami will be a second round exit if not first.

[MI21]

They went to Nocioni over Gordon? I don't care about 3P% and stuff, that is a ridiculous decision.

[Pistons < Spurs]

and predictably, there goes Wade w/ an injury.......

[phyzik]

ohh shit, Wade just ran/limped back to the locker room..... part of me hopes he's ok but the other part says "hell ya".

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

If Hinrich would have given up the fucking ball on those two possessions in the fourth where he dicked around and threw up shit at the rim with less than two minutes left, Chicago would have won tonight.

:pctoss

:pctoss

so it's safe to say you were rooting for Chicago.

It's easy to criticize those who try to do something. Gordon, Hinrich and Nocioni tried, for good and bad. All the rest of the Bulls were MIA. They lost the game. And Skiles' plays down the stretch weren't particularly good either.
