Trending bad.

Game 6 tonight in Miami and regardless of who wins this series all of the commentary about this Final series has been total garbage. Not one of these so called media "experts" has said or done anything worthy of a plug nickel. From game to game everyone switches their opinions depending solely on the winner that nights game.How about some insight into position play or what possible approach might be successful if you want more involvement from secondary players? What makes somebody different and why they provide commentary is supposed to be because they have a better understanding of the game. Barkley bad. Magic bad. Do we need a roundtable of 4 people telling me that Tony Parker is a great point guard or that Lebron James is the best player in the game?? Barkley gets an award for being funny but goes from saying that the series is going to go 6 games at the start of the finals and after Game 1 says the spurs might sweep  What is missing from sports media today is that noone is held accountable for what is being said. Anyone can say anything as long as its funny or definate and it doesnt seem to matter if a reason is given for making a statement.  People want predictions now about winners and losers but they dont seem to care about the reasons behind the predictions. The credabillity of the sports media is lower now than at any time in sports history. Nobody wants to name sources behind breaking news and certain networks even create sports stories on a slow sports days, Gone are the days of accountabillity and credabillity in the media and here to stay is entertainment journalism.
