    Explains fairly basic stuff... Weird seeing him on TV again after the draft. Nice effort, but it's pretty funny how he looks like he tried his anwers in front of the mirror 10+ times.

    I think he's good and does a good job at explaining stuff.

    Glad he's found a gig, hope he sticks.

    Oh, I think he's good, too. Can you imagine KP doing TV for a year? That guy is made for that. Would be a bit painful to watch for me (depending who our new GM turns out to be).

    KP could definitely be the TV man for NBA matters. Who's the GM-du-jour for NBA that does what Steve Phillips does for Baseball, or Melrose does for hockey? I can't think of one, but i haven't been thinking that long about it

    I don't think KP would be a good TV guy personally. He's too casual.

    I'm struggling to think of an NBA GM that had a substantial role on the boob tube... McHale I guess

    To be fair, he's also a former NBA player :)

    Isn't Steve Kerr a media guy, I remember reading his blog all the time.
