    Why the F#*K do we have to listen to the opposing team's announcers night after night??!! It seems like maybe one out of every 4 or 5 Spurs games on League Pass actually carries the Spurs feed!!

    One of the Timberwolves announcers at the end of the Spurs 15 point win actually said he thought the difference in the game was the officiating. Yes... he was serious.

    Last game against Portland, we had to listen to the TBlazers announces whine about how rough the Spurs were playing.

    Tonight, I have to listen to the Mavericks announcers talk about how the Mavs have dominated the Spurs lately. As though tonight's game is supposed to mean anything.

    I can't take anymore. I'm literally forced to mute the television to quell the urge to put a bullet in my brain.

    Why can't League Pass simply always carry the feed of the home team?? That would make it entirely fair for all transplanted fans who pay good money to watch their team.

    When Ginobili goes right he's just looking for contact
    Ginobili wasn't looking to shoot that he was just looking for the foul
    Ginobili just threw himself into the body of Dampier on that play
    As I said before when Ginobili goes right he's really just looking to draw the foul.

    I muted them.

    After so many years of League Pass and so few Spurs call games I've learned who I can listen to and who I can't.
    It was obvious from the opening that it wasn't going to be pleasant listening to them.

    I did the same. It's unbearable.

    The seattle announcers are bad as well, they really trash the spurs. but yeah, that line vs. Minn where the announcer said it came down to officiating, I thought it came down to the 15-0 run in the 4th quarter, almost all comprised of shots from the field. guess i was wrong.

    We muted it. There was no way in I was going to listen to a Mavs team announcer.

    Yeah...

    Much better that way.

    Though sometimes it's fun to hear the other announcers - the worst I've ever heard was the Rockets team and that got laughably bad. Lots of fun in the blog that night. I like your idea of the home team's announcers, though.

    The Mavs' guys weren't too bad, of course they're going to be homers just like Sean and Bill. They don't know much about basketball, but to me they really didn't trash the Spurs players and mostly talked from a Mavs standpoint and about Mavs players. They said a lot of complimentary things about the Spurs.

    That said, I'm sick of always getting the other teams feed. The main reason is that I really enjoy Sean and Bill and find them hilarious and informative, and it's obvious that the home team's feed should always be used. Does anyone know of a complaint avenue for NBA LP?

    Yea. I got league pass for this game and I was disappointed to see Mavs announcers today. I hated all the Mavs commercials, and all the BS associated with the game tonight. Damn I would of loved to hear Elliot tonight.

    I didn't have near as much of a problem with the Mav's announcers like I did Portland's the other night, but I still wish I could get a Spurs broadcast more than once in a blue moon.

    I just thought it was funny that Brad Davis thought Manu should have been called for a flagrant against Dampier when Terry pulled him out of the air. They were actually pretty good tonight; Brad Davis knows as little about basketball as any former pro I've ever seen.

    Do you realized you were really lucky?

    Dallas completely dominated the Spurs...

    Fluke win...



    The team that was down 10 late in the 4th was dominating the game? Is this another one of the trolls from some long time poster or is this nick legit?

    The fluke thing might be a Dynasty brewing.

    They actually did.
    I understand the concept of wins is lost on a *checks standings* 9-11 team, but try to keep up.

    The W is a good thing.

    Down ten and almost came back if it wasn't for a Nowitzki miss, you would be crying like a little right now.
    Says the guy who keeps coming back under alternate nicks to about the Spurs.

    But you wouldn't know anything about that, would you louis?

    The funny thing is that apparently the NBA knows what is your team so it feeds you the other team's announcers, look as how the Mav's are complaining they've got the Spur's announcers!!!!!

    As opposed to you actually stating that the Mavs dominated the game that they were losing during most of the 2nd half? The Spurs relaxed because they knew it was in the bag.
