There's Something Oddly Mesmerizing About Watching Kevin Harlan Call an NBA Game From His Basement: TRAINA THOUGHTS

1. I can't fully explain why I'm fascinated by this video of TNT's Kevin Harlan calling a preseason NBA game last night from his basement, but I am.

Maybe because it's cool to hear that notable, powerful voice bellow throughout his house. Maybe it's because Harlan is so good that if you close your eyes and just listen, you'd think he was in the arena. Maybe it's as simple as just watching one of the broadcast pros flawlessly do his thing from a makeshift studio during these strange times.

Harlan was in the bubble for the end of the NBA's previous season (which he discussed in depth on an episode of the SI Media Podcast), so he hadn't had the working-from-home experience until now.
