He makes the basketball newbie stay watching for a couple more minutes, instead of changing the channel. Maybe in a few more minutes, the game's exciting finish would get the noob hooked by the game itself.

He's "Basketball 101 for Dummies" meets Jim Henson Hour's "The Storyteller"

You don't like Hubie Brown? Blasphemy.

Bill Land i think his name is usually does commentary with Sean Elliott during the reg. season. Sometimes its Dick Stockton but not so much this year because he is getting a little senile. He would say all kinds of incorrect stuff during the broadcast last year.
I'm glad Al Michaels isnt doing the Finals. In 2005 he couldn't have looked or sounded more disinterested in the games. He's more an NFL guy.
I miss Tom Tolbert. He once called Danny Fortson the human foul. :D

I thought Dave Barnett came back this year.

Probably got fired for wearing too much tie dye.
