Most biased announcer ever

[rAm]

Anyone watching the spurs/suns game on NBA TV? I have never heard a more biased announcer. He has been jocking the suns all night, its embarassing.

[dougp]

I just started yelling at him ...

[slayermin]

It's the Suns' announcers.

NBA TV isn't actually legitimate....

They use the announcing crew for one of the two teams that are playing instead of supplying their own crew.

TNT and ESPN>>>>>>>>>>>>>NBA TV

[RonMexico]

Have you ever listened to Sean Elliiott before?

And yes, this is the Suns' crew: Tom Leander (graduate of my high school) and Dan Majerle.

[J.T.]

I can't understand these Chinese guys calling the game.

[Brodels]

Have you watched the Celtics in the last 20 years?

I think the guy thought these announcers were supposed to be nuetral.

Still....they are pretty annoying.

[Mr. Body]

Given they're Phoenix announcers, they're not as annoyingly partisan as you'd think.

[LaMarcus Bryant]

I wouldn't mind them if they hadn't talked about bowen "intentionally" kneeing nash in the groin.

[BonnerDynasty]

MOJOHD Doesnt even have the ing game on. It's been blacked out the entire time

I can't understand these Chinese guys calling the game.

Are you in China watching it on CCTV 5?

You should see Manu's brother on National TV here. Can't be more biased than that. But it's funny as

i was thinking the same thing at the beginning of the game, but then i realized they were suns announcers. what bothers me is that he kept calling boris diaw 3-D. i said, they should at least call him d3, before i heard him refer to a defensive 3 seconds as a d3. great call. after he called marion's dunk an "orange crush," i was tempted for the mute button.

lmao!

[K-State Spur]

i have no problem with bias (sean clearly is).

i don't see why some of these announcers feel the need to constantly rip and make fun of the other team though. it's very unprofessional IMHO.

[El_Mago]

Sean is so spurs biased too, but funny.

Yeah, the guy your talking about is Tom Leander and he is a tool. Most Suns fan can't stand the guy.

We seem to have these threads anytime we have a nationally aired broadcast without Spurs announcers.

Since I expect hometown announcers to call the game with a bias, here is what annoys me:

-Ripping up or making fun of the other team - it's unprofessional and better left to fans.
-Incessant whining about the past (I don't like it if Spurs announcers do it - I hope that doesn't happen in the future without Tim Duncan).
-Refusal to acknowledge bad calls/pretending the other team commits phantom fouls and that no one on your team commits a foul (one of the things I really like about Spurs announcers is that they are willing to admit when there was a foul or when they got away with something. They don't spend minutes at a time going on about a bad call or no call).
-Actively wishing opposing teams ill - like, say, wishing for a hard foul, encouraging them to 'get physical' or hoping that a player gets injured or is seriously injured (I thought the Blazers broadcast was pretty good when Timmy went down - handled it pretty well, all things considered)

Once you knew the announcers tonight were Suns announcers (which we didn't at first either) - they were fairly benign compared to others around the league. I didn't enjoy them and objected to several statements - but I didn't have to mute it like I did against the Rockets or against Dallas, or inevitably against the Celtics.

I can't understand these Chinese guys calling the game.

Have the announcers been outsourced?

It really was bad. The funny thing is, I normally block announcers out no matter who they are. But these guys were like nails on a chalkboard.

I get so tired of listening to the same ol' "It's just a matter of time till the Spurs blow them out" routine....especially when the are down 1. At least wait until they are up five or six before you do it.

[urunobili]

they made sure all the Spurs fans watching the game hated them for good... that was such a one sided Spur hating broadcast... really pissed me off.. probably more than the december loss we suffered...

[Sweetey]

The ALL TIME most biased and biggest jackass announcer is Bill Walton. I remember when the Rockets won back to back Championships -- Walton hated the Rockets and didn't mind letting everyone watching know it. He is the ultimate jerk!

[nkdlunch]

suns nicknames are gay: matrix, 3d, stat. sounds like a computer science class LMAO

dan majerle is not too bad though
