Some will say this was merely a coincidence, but when Bill Simmons brought up The Decision last night in the post-game coverage of Game 7 on ESPN, the screen went instantly black and they went back to Bristol because of “technical difficulties.” The Decision is widely regarded as one of the worst things ESPN has ever done, and is the reason a lot of people hate LeBron James. When they went back to Miami, Simmons never brought up what he was going to say about The Decision. This leads me to believe that producers cut him off and then told him not to bring it up when they went back to SportsCenter. It’s way too convenient that the only technical difficulties you experience all night are right when he utters the words “The Decision.” Things seem to be turning for the ugly side between Simmons and ESPN once again.
