Previously, NBATV was endearing in the Weird Al/UHF sense. But, honestly, you had to be a true fan to appreciate it. Last summer, the NBA contracted with TNT to run the channel. TNT, of course, has the best studio show ever. I was intrigued to see what they could do with NBATV.
Tonight, I am watching the new studio show with Ahmad Rashad, Gary Payton, and Chris Webber. These guys are awesome! I've had several laugh-out-loud moments already. TNT still has a tall hill to climb, in terms of filling the channel with watchable content. But this show is a winner!
