2001-02 NBA Season
As originally posted by Tony Miller:
2001-2002. The Second Comeback. And the final season of the NBA on NBC.
The Dallas Mavericks moved out of Reunion Arena, creating a pair of American Airlines venues – American Airlines Center in Texas and AmericanAirlines Arena in South Beach. The Grizzlies also moved, trading GM Place in Vancouver for Pyramid Arena in Memphis. They remained in the Midwest Division, because Vancouver was in the Midwestern part of the continent at some point.
Doug Collins took over as head coach of the Jordans – I mean the Wizards – so the #2 analyst team of Steve Jones and Bill Walton joined Marv Albert for the finals. Former Blazers and Warriors coach PJ Carlesimo became the #2 analyst. NBC announcers Tom Hammond and Bob Costas were additional talent, as was Carlesimo’s Blazers successor Mike Dunleavy.
