Kevin Harlan gets walloped in the face with a ball

Perhaps the hardest shot we've ever seen an announcer take in-game.

A loose ball in the Lakers-Bulls game was like a homing missile headed for TNT announcer Kevin Harlan:

Harlan's reaction to watching the smack on instant replay was pretty good:

The ball would've missed him if he was sitting, as announcers normally are, but Harlan decided to stand up with charging Laker Wayne Ellington. But it turned out the Laker wasn't the threat -- the ball was.

Sideline reporter Lewis Johnson came over to make sure Harlan was okay -- he was -- and everybody carried on, no harm done, a few laughs had.
