1.1. I don’t want to criticize Mark Jones and Mark Jackson’s broadcast crew for calling Game 1 of the NBA Finals. They were likely to work in just one game and usually didn’t work together, and ABC / ESPN was in a difficult situation with two of the three stations on the shelves. It must be assumed that Mike Breen and Jeff Van Gundy have returned from their COVID-19-related absences in Game 2 on Sunday and ABC is ready to go to the regular booth.
It was an interesting choice for Jones to call the Celtics surreal fourth quarter and wild comeback a “rebellion.”
But the strangest moment of ABC’s television broadcast of Game 1 between the Celtics and the Warriors was the lack of a player intro.
For some reason I don’t understand at all, ABC has succeeded in airing one of the best parts of the NBA television broadcast.
SI contacted ABC / ESPN to find out why the intro was skipped, but there was no response when this work was released.
It may seem like a small thing to some, but the intros of those players are very interesting and traditional. We hope to win the player’s intro by participating in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.
These intros have two purposes. For regular NBA fans, we consider a few things. How modest do PA announcers keep things for the visiting team? Which player is going to have a small show when they come out?
For fringe fans who have just entered the finals, this is an opportunity to become familiar with players, starting pitchers, and where they went to college.
The TV broadcast of Game 1 was like going to an Italian restaurant and not picking up a basket of bread before a meal.
You expect to get it, enjoy it, and if you don’t get it, you miss it and get a little angry.
