I remember a few years ago they did something similar for both Duke/UNC games, but they did it in a better way. For both match-ups they played the normal camera angle broadcast on ESPN. During the first game they showed the entire game from the "above the rim" cam on ESPN2, and during their second meeting they had like six different camera angles at once on ESPN2 (Sky cam, both above the rim, normal angle, under the basket, and maybe court level). If you want to experiment do it like that or do what NBC does with Sunday night football and put alternate angles online.
