Yesterday, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 103-96, but you know what? Everyone won, because some new kid got his first shot at NBA color commentary, and he might just have a future in this business!
That young Lakers fan acquitted himself well at the Spectrum SportsNet table, conveying his obvious enthusiasm for the team without letting it cloud his judgment or color his assessments of the plays. That first clip is decent—he’s at least operating at a Reggie Miller level, though admittedly that’s damning with faint praise—but it’s the second that really shows his promise.
