Every now and again, I’ll be catching up with those who call sports or elements of sports their job, profession, livelihood — to help give those outside of the business a better understanding of what goes on around the game…

To kick things off Portland native, old school R&B/hip-hop and shoe game aficionado, John Lukrofka of Portland Trail Blazers Broadcasting (have never seen the guy not with a smile on his face, in a good mood) shares his thoughts on a variety of topics within the business of sports television broadcasting, from how he got started to his hard-working career these days.
 
So, HCP, you say you work with the refs to help make sure they get the right call. What was that BS at the end of regulation in last night's game where MB said that the refs told him they couldn't review the video to check for the right time remaining (should have been 1.5 seconds, not the .9 we got)? Seems like I've seen them check the video to get the right time dozens of time. Did you get an explanation?
 
Whole lotta HCP trivia but noticeably..not one mention of the wife! Great story though
 
Wendall Maxey consulting? lol

I haven't seen that name in a long time.
He moved to Germany when his wife got transferred there for Adidas. Worked over there with a professional basketball league. Still writes for SLAM and some other I believe. Great guy. LOL? You don't get along with him?
 
Honestly, you do some good work, John. My only gripe with the production team are the camera changes right before a big dunk. Personally, I like to see the play from the original view the entire way.
 
I don't know any of these names. John? Maxey? Wendall? Nate Bishop? Sounds like a group of gay circus clowns.

I'll pass that along to my director. We always love hearing input.
 
Can I be your agent? I'll do it for 8%, no less.
Deal! And on a side note, saw your boy Kelly O. at our hotel in Houston. Didn't realize how big he is. Chatting it up with our rookie Pat C. Guess they are boys.

I'll do it for 15% but I'll actually get you work

Cameras shouldn't be allowed on the baseline. Not only is it unsafe for the players, but it's an AWFUL camera angle for the viewer.
