NBC is in its first year back as an NBA broadcast partner. While the network has earned pretty high marks for its production throughout the season, one aspect of its coverage of the Western Conference finals is earning awful reviews. During the playoffs, NBC and Peacock have been experimenting with alternate camera angles to give a different viewing experience, and viewers hate it.
The Western Conference finals series features two of the NBA's best, most exciting teams, who are part of an exciting rivalry. Victor Wembanyama and the young Spurs are attempting to dethrone Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the defending champion Thunder. NBC didn't need to add anything to this series to make it more interesting. Unfortunately, the network has decided to try to mix things up where it wasn't necessary.
