Nobody liked TNT's drone flying around during Celtics-76ers Game 2
BOSTON -- TNT dusted off a toy they used for the NBA's All-Star weekend for Game 2 of the Celtics-76ers playoff series, flying a drone above the TD Garden court to give fans at home a different angle of the action.
There's just one problem: Everyone absolutely hated it.
TNT only went to the drone angle a few times in the first quarter, but it was universally disliked on Twitter. The camera view was choppy and didn't look particularly great with the fast-paced action of playoff basketball.
To make matters worse, the drone flying around was in the main camera view as well, distracting from the action on the floor. That also did not sit well with viewers.
The drone was hated by both fans at home and those in attendance at TD Garden.
While things can get pretty heated between the Celtics and 76ers -- and the fans of both teams -- followers of the rivals were united in their dislike of the drone.
It's hard to get people on the internet to agree about anything, but everyone disliked the drone with a passion.
The execs at TNT must have been keeping an eye on social media, because the drone was barely seen the rest of the way.
