Keep Steve Brown fire Boler

People can whine all they want but having lived in 6 NBA cities, we have it pretty good with our announcers. Boler and Matty are better than most I have listened to and Steve is fine. DL is getting better at announcing and his bball analysis is as good as any radio guy I have heard. It can be a lot worse folks.

Well, I've lived in as many NBA cities, and I disagree with you. So there.

Boler is well below average. Matty has been tainted by him. I thought Boone was fine in his prime. Steve Brown is just shameful.
 
Brownie might be a little hard on the ears every now and again but he has solid bball insight and actually understands what's happening. Boler might be great w football but he's lacking a lot at bball.

I like the whole staff overall though. Harping has been great this season.
 
I have a horrible feeling Locke is being groomed to take over the play by play duties.

Can you imagine putting Harpring's teasing style with Locke's combative attitude? This all equates to a ton of jazz fans watching games with the sound muted.

So envoy it now, because it's only going to get worse.
 
Steve Brown is more embarrassing to the Jazz franchise than that third quarter yesterday. It's not just that he gets stuff wrong. It's as if he's watching a totally different game in a world peopled by cartoons whose motives only he can interpret through his mastery of the English language. That's when he gets into trouble. He gets so proud of his next sentence that he has to commit to its truth before he even realizes what nonsense it contains. It causes him to say wrong stuff, sure, but it also leads to all sorts of unintentionally erotic statements about the players and inappropriate comments about Harpring's wife.

I particulary love it when he scolds the Utah Jazz for not all going for an offensive rebound, then turns to Boone or Harpring for help, and they have to wearily explain to him for like the thousandth time: Steve, not everyone on a team should be under the other team's basket. You gotta keep guys back to defend.

He's a disaster.

Edit (because I was being a little negative): I do agree that Harpring has been good this season. Hopefully the Jazz can find a first-rate play-by-play guy to pair with him.

Good lord I hope you are WRONG.
Locke on TV would make the games unwatchable. I have to miss the games if I can't get in front of a TV now as it is. Because I'd rather not know than suffer through a Locke broadcast.
 
I love Boler, he's like our own Ron Burgundy.
Steve Brown always comes off as a guy who is trying to fit in. Plus Harpring seems to hate him- very bad chemistry.
I dunno, for the play by play announcer part...I don't really care about bball knowledge. They just need to be able to narrate the game. Brown seems to do pretty bad at knowin our own players or the other team.
