Excerpts from a Harlan interview where he talks about Pop, sideline interviews, and how much they suck.quote:[Popovich] is old school, and I think he absolutely, positively detests these coaches being miked up. I think it’s a very simple answer. He thinks this is the most ridiculous thing the league has ever done. And in every coaches’ meeting, every summer at the end of every season, he is the first one to stand up and complain vehemently about these coaches being miked. I hate sideline reporting, it's pointless and dumb. Is there some secret cadre of fans that demands bland and obvious answers to stupid questions?

The only reason whatsoever to have sideline reporters is if a player gets an injury so they can ask the medical staff on the bench what the situation is. That's it. The broadcaster could have an intern or someone do that and then relay it to the producer who passes it onto the announcers who inform the audience. No need at all to have another person on camera. Oh and I guess you would need someone to do the post-game interviews, but just have that same intern hand the player a headset and have them do it down the camera to the announcer and colour commentator.

It's really to provide a buffer because the broadcast doesn't know exactly when the game will start out of stoppages, so they need to cut to someone who can say something for 5-60 seconds. Cutting to the broadcast table takes the viewer out of the game, and those guys are usually terrible on camera anyway. Cutting the coach interviews is probably a good idea, but I think there is some use out of another analyst view or "I heard xyz from the visitor's bench" or whatever. It's better than JVG squawking about something trivial while the ref tries to get the players on the floor.

Sideline reporters do literally nothing. Coaches interviews are never useful, you could actually just have two robots dressed as the participants read random statements and it would be exactly the same as every coach interview. "we need to hustle" "they killed us on the glass that quarter" "we just gotta get the ball to <random player>"

This is the only opinion I ever see so I guess my question is: who is demanding these interviews? Is it just an issue of flow like Lockback suggests or is there some ancient yet powerful network exec that still believes the conventional wisdom from 1970.

I like David Aldridge's sideline reports, but mostly because I like Aldridge and he does as poo poo ton of reporting before the game so he has some fun tidbits.

Each team should have to designate one end of bench player to get interviewed instead of the coach. I want to know what Joel Anthony thinks about the Spurs execution in the first and how they are going to stop Harden.

It's usually not any good but it's easier to tune out and by necessity never interferes with the game, while they will go to the picture in picture of the actual game so they can finish a sideline interview. And every now and then something funny will happen while sideline interviews and commentator conversation are almost universally idiotic

The one time I saw her live she hosed up pretty hard and missed like 4 bowls out of 5. Still really impressive.

If you broadcast dead-air or something you'll end up with people clicking over to NCIS or whatever. The sideline reporters give a chance to re-engage more casual viewers because you weren't sure if you had enough time for another commercial. I think there are other things you can do instead, but you need to do something for live TV. It's the same reason on news shows the desk-guys toss it to the field people to recap the exact same thing before the press conference starts.

filling dead air time is pretty hard, the nbas solution is sideline reports and some play diagrams and poo poo which is better than the nfls solution of filling 80% of their dead air, and theres a lot of it, by saying outlandishly stupid things in a huge concentration

I love the in-stadium feed. The regular rotation of half time shows is amazing (Red Panda, the two beefcakes who hug each other elaborately, old chair dude, etc.), I live for Kiss Cam and seeing the dumb pass player vignettes teams play. It's all incredible. Also Red Panda is slipping because I've seen her gently caress up the 5 bowl toss a couple times lately. One time recently she hosed it up multiple times in a row.
