The New York Knicks beat the Detroit Pistons on Sunday to take a 3-1 series lead in their first round playoff matchup. Detroit's own Jalen Rose, a retired NBA player and former ESPN employee, was sitting courtside to support his hometown team and was featured promienently during the broadcast.
Rose's former co-worker at ESPN, Bill Simmons, had some strong feelings about ESPN showing Rose throughout their broadcast considering they laid him off not so long ago.
