    not sure of this guys name, "the new guy" that i have seen do the last two spurs games on WB or KABB (did the GS game). He is constantly saying "us" and "we". just wanted everyone elses opinion on this guy and if everyone else thinks he is as bad as i think. Does sean only do FSW games now?

    He's great. He's a huge homer which I like from the home town broadcaster.

    I thought it was interesting that he was arguing a goal tending call on the basis of the balls upward movement, when it had clearly hit the glass, after which point it cannot be touched without it being a goal tending, which was the call, which was correct...

    He sure is a homer, but I think he brings more a coach's respective to the broadcast, imo. I won't be asking to trade him in for Sean though.

    "when it had clearly hit the glass"

    yeah, that was amazing. I bet a lot of fans caught him on that one.

    He's got a bad broadcast voice, is pretty boring, and somebody tell him he doesn't need to Doug-Collins-comment every ing play or possession. One DC is enough.

    Good God ... he's the Silver Star's head coach, not a permanent replacement. Sean's just on vacation or whatever.


    Damn.

    He 'sounds' boring, but I think he's got great insight and seems very knowledgable of the game. As for saying "us" and "we," I'm all about homerism. But we do need Sean back though.

    Sean doesn't do all the games, so they periodically have someone fill in on his days off.

    As someone mentioned, this is Dan Hughes, the Silver Stars coach, not a professional announcer. He actually knows a lot about the game and does a great job pointing out stuff that viewers might not normally realize.

    He does use "we" "us" too much and sometimes trails off or mumbles. But hey, it's a very hard job and it's not his career, he's just filling in.

    Thats what I liked.

    He pointed out alot of stuff, pertaining to plays, defenses set ups, and what not.

    For all the points about being boring.


    Remember that when someone calls the team boring and you get pissed off.

    I think Tpark would do a good job standing in for Sean.

    Wishful thinking on his part. At least he didn't confuse Jacques Vaughan with Vicki Johnson.

    IMO I think the guy is pretty boring, I was watching the Sonics game with 2 other people and it felt like he made the game so much more boring, they both fell asleep. (even tho that game didnt have much excitement to begin with)

    Haha... So I'm not the only one who noticed this? lol... and I don't mind his homerism, but I think he kinda sucks. Sean is the man, but if you can't get him, at least get somebody with a personality.

    You'd think a coach would know the rules, are they different in the WNBA?
