Rachel Nichols and Maria Taylor have been the talk of the town in recent days, thanks to a recent controversy that has publicized some beef between the two.
NBA commissioner Adam Silver was one of the most recent to comment on it and offered an interesting perspective on the whole situation.
“It’s particularly unfortunate that two women in the industry are pitted against each other,” Silver said, per Mark Medina of USA Today. “Both Rachel and Maria are terrific at what they do. They work extraordinarily hard.”
The controversy has captured headlines over the past few days, and it has really become a talking point amongst the fans on Twitter.
To see two esteemed broadcasters, who are both great at their jobs, have such ongoing drama take place behind the scenes of ESPN is shocking to many, and nobody is really sure what to make of it.
But in this business, that doesn’t often see women dominate the field, it is unfortunate two of the best are having such problems.
Hopefully, the situation gets resolved with time, and both sides can develop a sense of peace with the whole ordeal. For now, we will continue to follow the story and provide updates as things develop.
