NBA Playoffs: Thank God for Youtube and Ian Eagle

My roommate and I were watching game 2 of the Cavaliers/Wizards series last night when this happened:




Our reaction: quixotic. Was this truly just a situation where the producers came back from the commercial break and forgot, intentionally or not, to tell Ian Eagle and Jack Ramsay? Or was this an orchestrated bit? Either way we should be thankful that A) Ian Eagle did not say anything racist and B) he compared a timeout during a professional basketball game to a Bar Mitzvah. Mazel tov!

Video notes: Watch how much Ian Eagle fidgets and, speaking of eagles, how Jack Ramsay is the exact human doppleganger of Sam the Eagle from the Muppet Show.
