Magic Switches From TNT To ESPN

I love Van Gundy, and I'm glad to see him signed long-term at ESPN. You could tell he was never happy coaching, but he's like a different person behind the mic. He's a of a coach, but I think he's even better doing color. I love seeing a real expert on the panel; kind of like Hubie Brown a few years ago.

Jeff was waaay to stressed out coaching. Living in NY seeing him day to day with the Knicks the guy looked like he was on the verge of suicide, especially when the team was going bad. He probably decided "Time to quit coaching and do something less stressful before i keel over with a heart attack"

Hubie Brown knows a lot about basketball, but he's an idiot as a color guy. He'll say something is a bad call and stick with his position even as the replay is showing that they got it exactly right.

Hubie was great until he went to coach Memphis in '02. After that he started getting senile once he returned to the booth.

Shaq will take over that spot soon

Shaq doesn't have the voice for color. He mumbles way too much to be intelligible half the time.

No big deal.
now if Barkley left...

definitely the weak link. I got bored whenever Magic would start talking. He was a great ball player and that's about it.
