this is weird. Different and weird. I can't say yet if I like it or not. It's different. I'd prefer no announcers to the Sonics guys, that's for sure.
I hate this telecast
I want announcers

I just heard my first "watch out for the ing elbows."
"That ing bull !" Is what I heard. I'm glad this is cable.
At least they fixed the 2nd camera.
And the music played is utter garbage...
Boy that is hard to listen to with that whinny spurs announcer.
they blacked it out here in austin, foxsw had the game. i thought it would be neat, maybe they will try it again soon.
....Right. That second camera was broken for most of the first half. With only one camera operating, this forced viewers to watch the action from a "behind the basket" angle.
It was weird watching Tony and the team dribble away from us as though we were under the opposite basket.
I must admit the HD effect was "all that".
It was kinda of neat with the one camera though. It felt like I had a seat at the game...
I live here in Washington State so I thought I would have the local FSNW broadcast but luckly I got the NBATV Skycam broadcast instead. That Craig Ehlo really sucks ass. I guess it was cool for one game, I would have rather had Elliott.I'd prefer no announcers to the Sonics guys, that's for sure.
I saw some highlights from the low angle (NBAtv blocked out locally for the game).
Pretty nice view. You don't see the floor spacing quite as well but it's realistic.
Side note: Rick Kamla interviewing Mike Finley. Fin: "I love this team!"
I guess you like bad jokes and having others state the obvious. I wish every game didn't have announcers, especially those shown on ABC and ESPN. Those guys make me wanna kill myself. The cameras rule as does the atmosphere they create, really makes you feel like you're at the game.

The camera angles is fun for novelty, but not for the entire game. The announcers however (or lack of) simply works, reminds me of the Florida/Florida State football game this past year, the center channel was somehow "turned off" but the crowd noise was still present and in surround sound. So loud crowd, and no announcers. Add that to being in HD and that was a dream come true.
B- for this telecast for NBATV, we didn't need to listen to the boob around the arena say this was an historic event over and over.
I didn't mind no announcers but I hated the exclusive use skycams. It made it hard to watch plays develop because you were constantly reorienting yourself to the camera angle, then trying to pick up where you left off.
GIve me one view and stick to it.
the camera that in broke was being prepared in the aisle right in front of me. i was like WTF? i didnt pay to have my view blocked by this bull .
I loved it, but I wouldn't want this for every game. A simucast maybe, as an option of a camera angle or being able to watch the game online from this. But I wouldn't want "NBA's Greatest Games" to replay this broadcast. I am still a traditionalist, I guess. The problem isn't with the format, it's with the estimated intelligence level by the networks of those watching the games.

I hated the telecast. It sucked.
The un-"Still Cam" made me nauseas as it slowly floated from front to backand side to side.
I changed the channel. Felt like I was on a carnival ride.
Hearing the "cuss" words in surround sound was nice
Those cameras were cool. I wouldn't mind seeing this broadcast again
For those of you at the game, how was the crowd? Because on the telecast they sounded dead like we've been complaining about recently. It may have been the way they had the broadcast miked, though.
I did like being able to hear the players and refs yell and cuss, though.
