    Andrew Marchand

    In the final episode of the first season of “The Ariel Helwani Basketball Show,” we look toward the future. With the NBA’s broadcast deal set to expire at the end of the 2023-24 season, it’s unclear whether the NBA will re-up its long-standing partnerships with TNT and ESPN. As we tread deeper into the waters of the streaming era, it’s quite possible the NBA could find a new TV home in the coming years. And so Ariel Helwani calls upon Andrew Marchand, the world’s No. 1 expert in all things sports media, to make sense of this crazy world the NBA is about to find itself in. The guys discuss topics like: How this past season’s recent NBA ratings will affect upcoming negotiations (12:47) The differences between TNT and ESPN and how they each approach their coverage of the NBA (20:25) Marchand’s prediction for how the NBA media package will look once the current deal ends (26:28) If NBC, the home of the NBA in the 1990s, has a legitimate shot at getting NBA rights in the next deal (30:04) Recently retired players and coaches who make good candidates for transitioning to the broadcast booth (50:52) Plus, Marchand gives Ariel his dream NBA broadcast trio and he also talks about LeBron James’ prospects as a broadcaster once he calls it quits. Andrew Marchand is a writer for The New York Post. The leading voice when it comes to covering sports media, Marchand is also the host of “The Marchand and Ourand Sports Media Podcast” alongside John Ourand of Sports Business Journal. Formerly of ESPN, Marchand is the go-to for everything about broadcasting deals, industry gossip, on-air talent drama, and more. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

And one of the men who will work on the desk for ESPN’s coverage of the 2023 NBA Draft, Jay Bilas, joins Ariel Helwani today for a wide-ranging conversation about not only what will take place on Thursday, but also an array of subjects, like: His memories from the night Nikola Jokic was drafted by the Denver Nuggets in 2014 (17:45) How Bilas has built a career out of telling it like it is, even if it puts him at odds with ESPN (26:28) The potential of Victor Wembanyama, the French phenom who the San Antonio Spurs will select with the No. 1 overall pick on Thursday night (36:00) The NIL movement in college athletics and whether it’s working the way Bilas hoped it would (42:12) Plus, Bilas goes deep on his law career, his annual basketball camp, his famous Young Jeezy tweets, the TikTok-ification of basketball, and why he feels 1986 No. 2 overall draft pick Len Bias could have been one of the greatest players ever.

    Eric Bischoff

    Picture this: It’s the NBA Finals, and one of the star players of the Denver Nuggets or Miami Heat decides to pick up a side gig. Imagine one of those players, say Michael Porter Jr. or Bam Adebayo, flies to another city following a game so he can go work at his other job. Can you imagine the outrage? The media coverage? The Twitter firestorm? If you grew up watching basketball in the 1990s like Ariel Helwani did, of course you can. Because Dennis Rodman, the erratic Hall of Famer, did this exact thing in 1998 when he appeared live on WCW Nitro just after playing in Game 3 of the Finals! And the guy who orchestrated this deal, Eric Bischoff, joins Ariel on today’s episode to talk about how he convinced larger-than-life basketball heroes Rodman and Karl Malone to enter the world of pro wrestling and a whole lot more, like: What Dennis Rodman is actually like off camera (5:41) How Rodman helped take Bischoff’s wrestling promotion, WCW, to a new level in the late ‘90s (16:30) Partying with Rodman and Hulk Hogan … and how one late night out gave Bischoff a visual he’s never quite forgotten (23:02) Bischoff’s close relationship with the late Muhammad Ali and what he learned from the boxing legend (35:09) Plus, Bischoff goes around the horn on a number of pro wrestling topics (37:51)! He and Ariel get into Endeavor’s purchase of WWE, if the upstart AEW has what it takes to topple the behemoth WWE, Tony Khan’s fitness for leadership, MJF’s free agency, and much more. Eric Bischoff is a titan of the professional wrestling industry. He is the former Executive Vice President of World Championship Wrestling, the pro wrestling organization that competed head on with Vince McMahon’s WWE, most notably in the ‘90s. After leaving WCW, Bischoff joined WWE’s creative team. Now a proud resident of Wyoming, the 68-year-old WWE Hall of Famer lives a much quieter life than when he was one of the biggest names in the business. Learn more about your ad choices.
