Worst was how they covered the women's gymnastics team finals. It felt like a dual meet, rather than a full competition. We saw USA vs Russia the whole time.

Also, I felt it demeaned Aliya Mustafina to be constantly portrayed by NBC to be a diva. They made her seem like a spoiled brat. Maybe she is a spoiled brat, but I'd imagine her path to the top of Russian gymnastics was not easy, having been both a Tatar and a Muslim.
