Anybody noticing and liking this camera on wires as part of the tv broadcast on ESPN(HD)?? I for one really like it, and wish that it was employed more often, it gives a really nice view of the action, brings you closer, and you almost see what the PG sees as he brings the ball upcourt. ESPN seems to only use this camera for ten to thirty seconds at a time. It may be experimental. It sure hasn't been in the NBA before has it? I know I see it all the time now in the NFL and it really adds to the experience and greatly adds to replays. The more cameras that are rolling, the better.

Yeah, I know what you are talking about Char. I don't really like it that much honestly. I want to see who is in front of him like down near the basket instead.

That or when the PG is bringing it upcourt, but once the ball gets over half court id rather see the other angles.
