    I think this is a significant downgrade.
    If I'm ranking the 4, I'd put them in this order.

    Van Gundy
    Doc Rivers
    Mark Jackson
    Doris Burke

    Both Burke and Jackson are extremely knowledgeable, but their voices put me to sleep. Van Gundy had his moments, but I won't miss him either. Doc was good back in the day, we will see if he still is.

    NBA player salaries are based on a 50/50 revenue split with the owners.

    So yes, the players not only have earned that, they deserve that.

    The league markets players, not owners. I've yet to see a Jody Allen jersey for sale.

    If she had a jersey the number would be 20.1 billion!

    Doris is so hard to listen to especially with how she fixates on a specific player and will only talk about them during said game…. I feel bad for the finals if it’s a favored matchup for one team.

    Isn't Doris usually color commentary? Who is doing the play by play?

    Mark isn’t out. He’s just not doing the NBA Finals anymore. He’ll be on the B team. JVG was fired.

    I know it doesn't have a check mark but by everything I can find this is Jackson's official account.
