Chris Webber is out at TNT. I won't have to listen to his stupid talking points during the playoffs now if Marc Davis would explode I could really smile!  ;D

I liked Chris Webber as a broadcaster. I know others have not, but I always thought he was entertaining, and pretty generous in his player assessments.

Don't understand the criticism.

He's been in the TNT doghouse for awhile.  I know they were not happy with him about the NCAAs.  Maybe it finally came to a head and they decided to cut ties before the playoffs.

With Marv seemingly on his way out too, it wouldn't surprise me that they use these playoffs to figure out who the new #1 team will be going forward.

Personally, I'd love to see Harlan/Hill as the new #1 team there.

Webber is terrible to listen to. Just rambles on with dumb prewritten talking points that don't relate to the actual game he's watching. Marv wouldn't be bad if he could tell the players apart or could figure out what the refs were calling in real-time instead of 5 minutes later. Where's McHale? Best color guy in the business now that Tommy's gone.

Now get rid of Mark Jackson, please. "It's a grown man's league" has grown tired...

That would be great! Harlan is fun and Hill is actually quite knowledgeable
