Being out of the SA viewing area, I didn't get to hear Sean's broadcast.
I've read the two quotes from Sean above. What else did he have to say?
He was continually going on about how bad the calls were - on both sides - but particularly, he said that Carmelo was getting "superstar" calls, like the last couple called against Tim. He said that not even MJ would get preferential treatment like that.
When Bruce took the blatant charge from a totally out-of-control Melo but got called for blocking, he said something like this about whether Bruce was in position and set in enough time to take the charge:
"Bruce was seated, with a hotdog and drink, WAITING for Carmelo"
He's a homer, but he's not above saying stuff like
"the Spurs are outta sync",
"that was a bad possession, no ball movement",
"The Spurs are only getting "one and done" "
"the defense hasn't been getting stops"
"bad defensive rotation"
So he keeps it farily well balanced and reasonable.
A good way to say it is that Sean is a Spurs fan who calls it straight... he's for the Spurs but he'll call it like he sees it.
Well when they called the foul on Tim to send Melo to the line to tie it up and on the next possession Manu got blocked with no call he went silent then a few seconds later he said:
"I know the people around me are looking at me crazy, because just slammed my pen down on the table."
He also routinely carps at Tim for catching the ball in the post and then holding on to it too long. He wants him to go up with it immediately. He's right, too. I keep screaming at Sean, "Well, you have access to him--TELL him!!"
