With The NBA Finals headed to Miami, the eight winners of ESPN Radio’s Mike & Mike “Starting Five at the NBA Finals” contest will enjoy a day of indoor and outdoor activities specially chosen by the hosts – with four on “Team Greeny” enjoying a private golf lesson, followed by lunch and spa treatments.  “Team Golic” will tour Miami’s Biscayne Bay via paddleboard before lunch and massages.  The outings will take place on Tuesday, June 10, the day of Game 3 of the Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and Miami Heat, a rematch of last year’s series.

The eight winners were announced on the show Friday, May 30:

Before attending Game 3 of The NBA Finals, each winner and their guest will have VIP seating for that morning’s live Mike & Mike broadcast on ESPN Radio and ESPN2.  After the activities and before the game, they will meet ESPN’s NBA team of Mike Breen, Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy and receive a behind-the-scenes tour of ESPN’s television production facilities.  The prize also includes round-trip transportation and accommodations for three days and two nights.

Mike & Mike will broadcast live from Lummus Park at12th Street and Ocean Drive in Miami Beach on June 10 and 11.

For four weeks starting April 22, fans waited for the daily “winning word or phrase” and then called, texted, or visited espnradio.com, registering with the winning word of the day.  Each week, two names were randomly selected from among all correct entries for the opportunity to attend an NBA Finals game as part of “Team Greeny” or “Team Golic.”

Mike & Mike is broadcast nationally from 6 a.m. – 10 a.m. ET, Monday – Friday, on ESPN Radio, espnradio.com, ESPN Radio app, Sirius XM and simulcast on ESPN2.

As I write this on 11-11-21, it's now 35 years for me at ESPN, the only real job I’ve ever had. I joined merely to help with the upcoming America’s Cup in Australia. I was told it would be for three months at all of $5.50 per hour. I like to say I simply kept showing up. I’ve worked on almost every sport, plus answered viewer calls and letters (people used to write!), given tours, written the company newsletter and once drove NASCAR’s Jeff Gordon to the local airport. My travels have been varied…I’ve been to Martinsville, Darlington, Indy and Super Bowls; the America’s Cup (all 3) in San Diego and College GameDay in the sport’s meccas such as Eugene, Auburn, Lubbock, Stillwater and more; the NBA Finals, Wimbledon (16 times and counting) and the “other Bristol,” the one with a race track in Tennessee. These days, my main areas are tennis, UFC, boxing, network-wide ratings (by month/quarter/year), and corporate communications documents, including fact sheets, chronologies, lists and nearly 35 of the Year in Review press releases. UPDATE EXACTLY ONE YEAR LATER: Today, November 11, 2022, I am retiring from ESPN -- 36 years to the day I began. As I ride off into the sunset – top down and E Street Radio blaring – I do so with so many wonderful memories, proud of my contributions and a heart full of gratitude for the opportunity.
