I'm not against homerism in itself, on the contrary. Hate it when Thurl squints at a slo mo replay and says, "Yeah... I guess Walker must have fouled him with his nose. There was probably some contact there".

But Collis is the type of announcer who sees LaMelo make a stupid floater in the 1st quarter and screams "LAAAAAAAMEEEEELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! UUUUUUUUUUUH BABYYYYYYYYYY YEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!"

I actually completely hate the first kind of homerism when they complain about every call.

I love the second kind of homerism when the broadcast is actually excited about the game being played.

I meant that Thurl never complains about any bad calls against the Jazz. You won't hear more than a dry "I don't know about that" from him.

And he carefully dissects replays to find fouls by Jazz on preposterous calls.

I like that. I hate when commentators complain about the refs. The biggest problem I have with most broadcasts is they complain about the refs so much.

I personally hate 1 of the Celtics announcers... dont know their names though, I watch them pretty rarely.

But that dude is super arrogant, bitches about refs and literally flames bad teams.

Boston is firmly on the "no listen" list. Might be the very top. BOS, HOU, TOR, GSW.....off the top of my head those are some of the worst.
 
I'm actually surprised TT got popped for MK677. I think NBA players are actually allowed to be on TRT and MK677 is more for skinny teenagers who need to eat more.
