I've had enough of this shit. Anyone want to call the league and voice their displeasure? Here it is- 212-407-8825. That's the league office.

What do you expect them to do?

They cant do jack shit about it. They are not going to fired 100+ announcers because we think they are homers.

Just gotta live it it.

It's the NBA Ticket. Over the course of the season so far, they have probably used the Spurs broadcast team about ten percent of the time. That is unacceptable. Fans of every team would like to hear their teams announcers at least a fair amount of the time. This is bullshit. I can only assume there is some type of problem with the Spurs and their feed, although when I asked, the NBA claimed there was not a problem. Whatever the case, it needs to change.

I've only heard the Spurs announcers once - and it pisses me off to no end!

Wasn't too bad tonight though. They were actually very complimentary of us.

So basically I've seen fifty percent of the Spurs home broadcasts this season and I don't even have LP.

I thought the NBA always used the visiting team announcers. If so, the Pacer announcers were the correct feed.

I enjoy the perspective of the other teams announcers moreso than our own

The other team's announcers aren't bothering me as much as the fuckin' non-HD broadcasts. Watching these games in SD on a 52" 1080p makes me regret getting LP.

In that case, the Spurs have been the home team for all but two games this season.

yeah, i would say there have been 5 spurs broadcasts and out of 40 games, probably 30 on were LP, so do the math there. I wonder if any other teams are getting crapped on like this?

I agree.
I watch a lot of the Pacers games, and the crew always does a nice job.

I'm on league pass broadband and I actually had the Spurs announcers last night. You think it had to do with proximity to SA? I'm in college station

I don't have LP living in sotex but I will help the cause and email the NBA because that really does blow.

Spurm announcers are probably the worst in the league I don't know why the big fuzz about it...!!:rolleyes


Sean Elliott is probably the WORST Homer in all sports, always predicting outcomes and always wrong!!

Oh, Gee!!

where do you live? maybe they use the broadcast closest to your cable provider. If you live in SA, you can watch every game with SA announcers on our local channels in HD.

I've given up trying to figure out how they decide. Last night I had Pacers call on LP and Spurs call on LP Broadband. I watched it on TV and listened to it online. The only problem was online runs a minute or so behind the TV. :lol

I wish they'd just do something fair and consistent like give us the home team's call every game. I think that would make everyone happy.

The internationnal league pass is fair. It's always the Home team annoncer.

And there is only 1 or 2 game blackout by week ;)
