Returning to their native New York for the telecast (Albert and Michaels are from Brooklyn, Costas from Commack, 长岛), the trio is synonymous with the biggest events in sports – combining to work 25 Super Bowls, 25 NBA Finals, 23 奥运会, 19 世界大赛, and numerous championship boxing events on television and radio.
“We are thrilled to have three of sports’ all-time broadcasting heavyweights – in prominence, not weight – working together on TV for the first time,” 说 山姆·洪, 执行制片人, NBC体育和NBCSN. “Appropriately, these three are teammates on a primetime NBC boxing telecast.”
“While I have done many broadcasts with Al and with Marv, this is a one-time opportunity to work on the same broadcast with two of the all-time greats, plus it’s a chance for me and Al to renew our ongoing debate with Marv as to which was the greater cinematic achievement – BASEketball 或 The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh,” said Costas, who at the 2014 Sochi Winter Games became U.S. television’s first 10-time Olympic primetime host (Jim McKay hosted eight times for ABC).
“I never could have imagined this,” said Michaels, who in 2015 上 星期天 足球之夜 begins his record 30th consecutive season as the play-by-play voice of the NFL’s premier primetime broadcast package. “And to have it all happen close to where we all grew up makes it that much more special. Very, very cool.”
“It is an honor to be a part of this group,” said Albert, who has been the most recognizable national voice of the NBA since 1990 除了他的 37 years as the radio and TV voice of the New York Knicks. “I’ve always had great admiration for the work that Al and Bob have done through the years, and I’m proud to call them friends.”
Michaels, 阿尔伯特, and Costas will be joined on the telecast by analyst and six-time world champion “糖” 雷·伦纳德, corner analyst B.J. 花卉, 记者和 肯尼·赖斯.
