I must say the attire of the CBS analysts is improving. Greg Gumbel has ditched the glaring ties that clashed with his suit. Tonight he wore a whore on blue plaid suit, white shirt, white on red pattered tie with a dark red pocket square. Clark Kellogg donned a blue on tan suit,white shirt with a brown on blue paisley tie. Kenny Smith wore a light brown suit, white shirt with a dark brown tie and brown and black pocket square. Charles Barkley wore his best look so far, a Tan with white striped suit, white shirt and light brown with white striped patterned tie.
