Spectrum SportsNet

Danny Green has been working the – I know my career was still going at the time, you know, still going.

Let me start making the rounds and popping up and doing a little here, you know, Spectrum Sportsnet and doing the pod.

I know he's

done it.

Nothing from the beat writers.

Nothing on Spectrum Sportsnet.

Nothing on MLB tonight.

You'd think they'd be covering that.

By the way, there is

another NBA note to pass along.

Our friends over at Spectrum Sportsnet announced that our good friend Bill McDonald is back for another year calling Lakers games on TV with Stu Lance, but only for home games as Danny Green will now be doing all the road games on TV.

And Sasha

Okay.

This is Spectrum Sportsnet.

Yeah.

This is the deal that differentiates the Lakers from everybody else.

Okay, I got a baseball text, so I'll get that, and then I'll take a break and get into the other baseball topic.

any comments on the local Spectrum Sportsnet telecast rights were not renewed for Spectrum and Hawaiian Telecom.

Loss of Lakers and Dodger broadcast.

Well, I have not heard that, but I know the Dodgers are currently on Spectrum, channel 1217, I guess, or 217.

He had a good relationship with UCLA Health as a big-time Laker exec.

Helped get the position, get the partnership with the Spectrum Sportsnet deal, which kicked off a lot of money for the Lakers in their own broadcasting network.

One of the largest regional TV deals in sports.

Think about that.

And it was like, whoa, UCLA was losing a lot of money on top of all the misgivings of Martin Jarman over his tenure as UCLA AD.

And then you bring in Tim Harris, who's got the gravitas of the Lakers brass around his name with him working there for over three decades, brokering the deal between him and the Spectrum Sportsnet or the Time Warner Cable deal that helped get the Lakers a bunch of money.

And we hope that UCLA can reap the benefits from his eventual work with UCLA.

so here's how it's already a good hire he's been brought on as a consultant pro bono prior right this is something this isn't a new agreement and arrangement to have tim harris around he's been around doing an audit all right so this is where you had julio frank who had been keeping his list of what's been going on for the athletic department then they got somebody to turn up the heat even more to we're going to make a decision right here right now and whatever the official findings were, all right? Obviously, CBS Sports is theirs.
