from your cable company if Mark Jackson is calling your game, tbh... is there any way?

'The great Larry Bird will just come out and play'... ughhhh
Late in the first half Jackson said Pop brought Green in for "shooting" lmfaothis guy
Not any worse than our guys. Sean is such a ridiculous homer that its unbearable.
Sean has his jersey hanging from the rafters and works for the Spurs. Who is he supposed to root for?
I get his role, but its still awful to hear such extreme bias. He's like a more lighthearted version of the rockets announcers but gets a pass from us.
Sean can speak English and laugh. And Sean will criticize the Spurs profusely.
"Hand down, man down"
Jackson is the worst. Bring Bill Walton back for Christsakes...
the Rockets announcers are terrible. Clyde Drexler and Bill Worrell are awful. Sean is 100 times better as an announcer.
People kind of overrate Sean's homerism these days. He's not any different from your average home broadcaster. If anything people I know find Bill Land and his catch phrases more obnoxious
Yeah, the catch phrases are annoying.
And yes, sean does criticize the team, but still does it from a we perspective.
Also yeah the rockets are way worse. Just saying its similar.
Oh Mama! I don't know what you two are talking about!![]()
Has nothing to do with homer-ism. Dude is the epitome of antiquated, uninformed, old media takes.
His proposed 'rule' of 'if healthy, you play' is a completely uninformed take that wouldn't prevent any of this resting, as any modern health study will tell you that the lack of proper rest, especially after flying and changing timezones is actually pretty unhealthy.
On top of that he keeps fellating the 'good old days' of 'Larry Bird and Kobe Bryant', at a time where the NBA is at it's peak of popularity, and the fact that it's not the current's players call to sit out games, tbh...
I know some people hate Van Gundy hyperbole schtick too, but at least you can tell the guy has an understanding of the fact that there's simply too many games in too little time and the schedule can be absolutely non-sensical at times, and that's why this happens.
I really don't know if it's extreme. He apparently just doesn't talk about the other team. I've seen much worse in terms of actually saying whether calls are legit or not from Sean. Then of course, you add in that he's better at breaking down a game than any announcer out there (or at least the networks aren't letting them do it), and you get a much better experience.
I have heard this maybe a couple of times on here, and it's pure bull . Sean is constantly giving credit where due to the other team.
I'd much rather have Oh Mama
than...a dead guy
a mini James Worthy lol
a little Pele'
have you ever watched a spurs game on another team's channel? They make ****** look like an angel with their bias.
How about that snowflake broadcast by ABC?
'Everyone should play, cos it's not fair to the fans. Teams shouldn't smartly be injury averse or properly rest their players. Boo hoo!'
Little Emilio
Sean is a homer, but not a conspiracy theorists homer. The rockets announcers think they deserve every single call and if it doesn't go their way, the and loudly during the broadcast.
This is what calling a game like is for a consistently losing team. People don't watch sacto or the magic expecting to win, so naturally, you talk about the other team more for these lopsided games.
