“One Man’s Opinion” by Gordon Curvey

I was told about this story this morning and all I can say was OMG! I do not believe in his conservative political views but I respected his views on the game I love so much…basketball.

Greg Anthony was arrested for soliciting a prostitute in Washington D.C. It was around 5:45pm that Anthony was picked up. This is truly a sad and terrible story. Because Anthony was suppose to be the color analyst for a game today on CBS as I type this article

He is also a studio analyst for NBA-TV. Most of the time he is on the air with Chris Webber and Ernie Johnson. The charges is a misdemeanor. If found guilty he could spend up to 180 days in jail

Anthony had become CBS TV #1 NCAA hoops analyst replacing Clark Kellogg. He knows the game of basketball and is very intelligent. Why on earth would he maybe do what he did? He has a great looking wive at home and has three children. This is just bad news all away around. For himself and CBS and for basketball.

Greg first made a name for himself as a member of the “Runnin Rebels” of UNLV back in the early 90’s with Larry Johnson and Stacy Augman and others. They had a great, fast, exciting and dynamic team. One of the greatest college teams of all time. Then he had a solid pro career.

So now we will see what in the hell happens to Greg Anthony and his broadcasting career. One thing for sure we will not see Anthony on TV anytime soon but the question is the motor mouth Charles Barkley taking his place? Ummmmmm? All comments: gcurvey@yahoo.com
