    Chris Broussard has had a rough month. First, he was terribly miscast on ESPN’s NBA Finals pre-game show. Every sports pre-game show needs an “information/news” guy – at ESPN, think Buster Olney on baseball, Chris Mortensen on the NFL – and it appears the network thinks Broussard can be their NBA news guy.
    Problem is, he didn’t have any info on the pre-game show, and ended up attempting to talk X’s and O’s with former players Magic Johnson and Jon Barry. It was awkward and didn’t go well.

    Then, ESPN thrust Broussard onto the set of the NBA draft last week, a disaster that should have never happened. His range was essentially the Top 7-8 players (he watched March Madness!), and then he offered pithy NBA thoughts. I’m still waiting to hear ESPN explain how/why Broussard was chosen to be such a prominent part of the set when the other reporters were brought in as news guys to talk trades.

    Free agency hasn’t been kind to Broussard, either. He’s been a step slow on everything, and when he does jump in on the twitters with some “news,” it has either been already reported (probably by the Yahoo Guys), already announced by a player (like Deron Williams) or already announced by a player in a statement to the press (like Eric Gordon).

    Clearly worn down by the beating he’s taken online, Broussard – who by all accounts is a very nice, very religious guy; he was once incredibly kind to me on one of my early forays to cover the NBA at Madison Square Garden – lost it this morning before jetting to the Caribbean on vacation. (It reminded me of this LeBron “real world” rant in 2011.)

    He's awful. Just awful. Having said that, people are relentless and I am sure it gets very old with some of the vile things people spew (think SpursTalk but not quite as bad).

    Light skin brothas haven't been in style since 1986,when Cosby show was a hit,Lionel Richie and Prince were popular and Michael Jackson was bleaching his skin.

    The way we show our disregard for him is by posting every tweet he makes in a new thread. That will teach him.

    That last pic there looks like Stuart Scott around the eyes tbh.

    I don't understand why ESPN jams this guy down our throat. Adam Schefter and Buster Olney are legit. Don't know what the happened with their NBA coverage/analysis, it's very subpar.

    This.

    Schefty and Mort are top-notch in NFL
    Olney and Kurkjian are tops in MLB
    NBA has a bunch of unreliable -nozzles

    The minute they gave a show to SAS, you knew they were heading the wrong way, IMO.
