'' Hey, at least the diamondbacks are off to a good start''
He's so brutally honest, I love it.
:lol
For such a depressing, dour face on the sidelines, he's really very relaxed and humorous, and clearly intelligent about the game, and the meta-game.
JVG is the shit.
Van Gundy = best commentator ever
Phoenix needs to give up on the whole NBA thing...i dont really think it's meant for them.
WNBA needs some ratings boostQuote:

ESPN/ABC has two good broadcast teams - Breen / Van Gundy / Jackson and Tirico / Hubie. Hubie wasn't half as good with Al Michaels, which was entirely Michaels' fault. Obviously, the ESPN/ABC studio shows are total wastes of time.
:lol
LMFAO!!!
Jeff is one of the only good parts of an ESPN broadcast.
Why was Sean Elliott there? I looked at the other channels to see if he was commentating I saw nothing.
when they were having a discussion over making a rule to prevent the use of "hack-a-shaq" early in the game, it cracked me up when he said something like "you do not legislate a rule for lack of skill."
As much as I like JVG, I hate Mark Jackson.
JVG will give each team equal time. Mark Jackson just flat out hates the Spurs, doesn't even try to hide it.
Best part of their broadcast, is when JVG calls out Jackson on a call.
Jackson..."That was clean block by Shaq on Ginobili."
JVG..."When is an elbow to the face a 'clean block?'"
JVG is ok.
Yeah, Mark Jackson is an idiot. It seems that he supports every blown call, and opposes every correct one.
And he defends it like its obvious! He probably doesn't even watch the replay! "the official made the right call" or "that was NOT a foul."
Idiot.
But JVG is fun to listen to.
Just like Bill Walton.
On that one play when Barbarosa punches ginobili Mark is like incidental contact and Van mocks him and says yeah incidental alright,Quote:

Staple Mark Jackson quotes:
"I'd take great offense over great defense any day!"
"Great acting job by Ginobili."
JVG keeps Marc Jackson's hyperbole-dropping ass in check. I also love how he's so blunt and intelligible about the game. He and Mike Breen are great. Marc Jackson can be a douche to listen to sometimes.
Dear God no. He hates our "funnel to the baseline defense". He thinks all of the perimeter players should just play straight up, even if it means allowing their man into the lane. His offense also makes our old 4-down look like vintage Suns run-n-gun.Quote:

Hopefully Jackson gets the Knicks gig and he'll be gone and they can get someone else. I do agree about Sir Charles being a commentator. You put him with JVG and Breen and that would be very entertaining.
JVG is pretty good...
but I would give any current broadcaster for some COSTAS!!!
