Is Bollerjack's favorite word "confidence" or "Secaucus," (New Jersey)? I know he likes Secaucus; I'm just wondering if he has the confidence to accept that deep inside himself, and make it his favorite word.

Thoughts?

It would be nice to have an announcer who knows the difference between the elbow and the wing, or what a skip pass is.

The most annoying thing is the constant mistake in calling a pretty obvious midrange shot as a 3 pointer. I know they are court side and sometimes it's probably hard to tell on some shots because of the angle, but he definitely does it more than anyone else.

I think he gets most excited for Houdini.

The phrase that most needs to go is "hammer down" a 3.....

It's not a phrase, but speaking of 3s he's been broadcasting basketball for what, nearly 10 years or so, and he still can't recognize a 3, or recognize that you don't have to look at the player's foot, just at the ref who hold's his hands up for a 3 and down for a 2. It's fascinating how off he is sometimes. Like multiple times he is stunned it's not a 3 when the player is completely and well within the line.

He was gifted with an amazing voice though.
 
It could be worse guys, we could have the Cavs announcers for instance. I'm fine with Bolerjack tbh, it's Ron Boone who seems that age is starting to hit him though with those awkward moments of silence while he's commenting.

He's been the same for his entire Broadcast Career

I didn't re-up for League Pass because I'm broke. If I had, I'd be listening to the non-Jazz feed almost every time. Bolerjack's great voice is not enough to offset hislow BBIQ and stupid catch phrases.

What's weird for me is how bad most of the teams' broadcasters are. I've never grown too tired of ATL's crew, though. Dominique is great. Harpring would be better if he stopped goofing around with Boler and just shared frank thoughts about the players and the game. This positive-spin-factory they have going, and this buddies-watching-teh-game thing... they've got to go.

Most other broadcasts all have that "I'm not from the hood but I talk with this funky white guy fake gangsta in a nice neighborhood accent" token black guy. It's obnoxious AF. Just black enough for white America but not black enough to be authentic and scary.
