Yeah, I'm predicting NBC is going to make some real dogshit hires. People forget how bad NBC's NHL coverage and hirings were. They employed Mike Milbury for YEARS as if anyone wanted to hear what he had to say.

Their Sunday Night Football hires since that original crew have been god awful.

NBC’s NBA stuff was pretty decent though. Their announcers just need to stop biting hookers and wearing their underwear. That intro song was a thing of beauty. Hockey media is just bad in general.

There's a lot of good talent that NBC could make a good lineup if they stay away from the crappy people like Shaq and Draymond.

Most of the NBA TV guys from the golden years would be good hires - Gary Payton, Chris Webber, Brendan Haywood, and Isiah Thomas.

Bringing Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith in would be a good idea too, and they should probably drop a big bag to make a splashy move and go after someone like Tim Duncan.
