Baynes intimidating Adams big time!
How the hell did I get here from the game thread? freakin iPhone.
Kawhi's beautiful move was because Durant was tired.
Reggie, your no ring bitch persona is showing.
And Durant is tired and he's gonna be tired in this series. Fuck Miller.

Watched the entire game on mute for this very reason. Plus it allows me to focus more on watching the Spurs offense in motion.
I wish TNT would have picked up Mark Jackson and dumped Reggie. It is obvious he hates the Spurs but always has the Spurs game, even when there is another option.Quote:

Surprised you guys even pay attention to what those guys say. Im too busy providing my own commentary.

I just mute it. Which sucks because Marv Albert is the best. Kerr seems more of a company man since becoming a HC.
Barkley has been a Spur hater as of late, too. Luckily Shaq, Kenny, and Ernie seem to give us respect.
Steve Kerr.. the next in line to be fired by GS just like he was from Phoenix. Coach Kerr... sure.
Reggie and Steve spent more time talking about things other than the game than they spent talking about the game. At times I had no idea who got called for a foul or why. They should both shut the fuck up. What happened to the days when people like Marv did all the talking and people like Reggie and Steve just answered a question now and again?
Reggie Miller sucks, you can just tell he doesn't like the Spurs and it's obvious. Another x player like Jon Barry mad they never won shit so they come out of the side of their mouths with that hate crap.
Barkley is a bandwagonner, bigger than shit. He's interested in exciting players, not in basketball. He doesn't even talk about basketball.Quote:

Reggie announcing Clippers games is the worst..I can't remember a national announcer being so biased towards a team(he picked them to win the title and picked Jordan as DPOY, and he's friends with Tom Rivers, so it makes sense that it conveys to his announcing)..
Mute the TV and have the radio on is what he's saying.Quote:

I do. I rely on them to tell me who fouled whom, and it's funny because Kevin Harlan is wrong about 70% of the time when he's trying to tell you what just happened. I actually heard Reggie say "but the whistle came after the foul".Quote:

I don't get it unless they are bought off by the media? I mean Smith got his only ring in SA, you would figure that would last but since he did not play alot that year he might hold a grudge! Kerr had the big game against Dallas we all know about so I figure some of his heart would rest there since he said it was the best game of his career on the DVD or his defining moment! I don't get why he would be against them since he got two rings in SA and had his defining moment in SA! I am guessing he is being paid off or brainwashed on what to say, otherwise I see no reason why he could hate on the Spurs at all! NONE.Quote:

Game 7 with the mavs and Spurs I fully watched on mute in the second half, not only because of the idiot ANNOUNCERS but it was 2 or so seconds off on the live feed and audio! I fully enjoyed it on mute though, so I can relate. ABC audio was just off then but on mute without their bias shyt I could just relax and enjoy it more.Quote:

It was bad when the Spurs would be called for a touch foul and both Kerr and Miller would say something along the lines of, "That was a good call. Definitely contact there." And if the Spurs were mugged, "Good no call." Or if the Thunder were called for a touch foul, "What a horrible call. That shouldn't have been a foul." :lol
This.Quote:

I don't like it when they have two color guys. As you say, they end up talking about other shit. I actually like Kerr though. With him leaving TNT and Jackson going back to ESPN, both networks are going to suck to watch games on.
Agreed. The 3-man crew is one too many. Inside the NBA has the same problem.Quote:

There was one point where Miller was speaking on how Spurs are one of the teams that least commits fouls (we are famous for being disciplined and not fouling) and talking about how OKC had immense amounts of FTA in the game compared to usual. He also said it in a tone that indicated OKC lives on free throw line. Fair play to him on that one
Agreed. They're the best.Quote:

Casual viewers want stars vs. stars. Networks want more casual viewers to tune in. That's pretty much it.Quote:

Look at the bright side. At least we don't have to watch Pitbull on ESPN every time someone calls a timeout.
I still have vivid recollection of Walton doing the local broadcasts of Clippers games back in the early-to-mid 2000's and how entertaining he made those broadcasts. Frequently saying to Ralph Lawler: "I don't know about you, Ralph, but my seat belt is firmly fastened." Drifting off into bits of hilarious hyperbole -- one time calling Corey Maggette "clearly one of the 10 best defensive players in the history of the league." Walton was absolutely awesome.Quote:

Reggie doesn't seem anti-Spurs to me, he just gets aboard the hype train.
Kerr seems to lean towards whoever is playing the Spurs. He's also incredibly anti-Bulls over the past 2 postseasons. He's like the anti-homer for teams he's played for.
The only guy who seems like an over the top Spurs hater is JVG. Every play is a Spurs flop. 1999 was a long time ago shithead.
He literally gets on the Spurs for every call they get from the refs. This happens, and suddenly he shuts the fuck up. I know this video cuts short but I promise, he doesn't say 1 word about a flop so heinous that Robert Horry would have been embarassed.

Maybe he's afraid of being perceived as a homer while commenting games on national TV, and is playing it safe by going a bit overboard in anti-homerism.Quote:

More to your point, the last time I heard a Spurs game called by JVG he said that if he lived in San Antonio he would buy season tickets because the Spurs are a great team to watch. He always compliments the Spurs. Sure he doesn't always things that favor the Spurs, but I don't take that as anti-Spur. If you want a healthy dose of Spurs homerism, listen to the local guys.Quote:

Love Marv. You can tell hes tired of Miller :lol

Local media eats it up, but national media deals with it because the Spurs force them to by winning.Quote:
