I can't stand JVG & Jackson. To me, it seems like they are always going out of their way trying to make some brilliant point, when in reality they are either stating the obvious, or just saying something stupid.

Probably dropping Jackson to the second team....
When she is on the second team doing broadcasts she is so damn good and works her ass off with her research and her breadth of knowledge about the game is fantastic.
Having her work the sidelines in the finals is a huge misuse of her talents.
Agree. She's great.

The man is 85 and will be 86 before next season.
He has more basketball knowledge than most people alive and unlike most his age or even younger appreciates the modern game and can comment intelligently on where the game is now rather than bringing up the ‘good old days’
The man is a basketball treasure and we may not have too many years left of him gracing us with his dignity and wisdom. We have already gotten far more out of him than any of us deserve.
Totally agree!
