Did you guys catch the part tonight where Boler tried to make it sound like he knew how to calculate effective field goal percentage? It was pretty lol.

Also, Deng played at Duke for, what, 1 or 2 years, and has been in the NBA for something like 15 seasons. But still: “Deng, outta Duke.”

I can’t wait for Boler to call it quits.

Based on the games, Harpring chooses which games he works based on team and locale.

Not surprising he looked at the schedule and say no to Minnesota in January, or Detroit, Indiana and those games in January. But he came back for the Milwaukee game. Wonder why?

Maybe he has a few outstanding warrants? You really need to pay those parking tickets.

This right here has me actually laughing at my desk. You are so spot on with this. The Duke comment was so random and irrelevant.

I can't wait until we play Dallas again so Boler can reference some obscure club team in Germany Dirk used to play for.

I have no problem with our announcers. Boler is fine. I like Harp and I like Thurl. Way better than most hometown crews.

Having to watch other team's streams for the first time this season after giving up Dish, I'd have to agree. I expected good things from big market teams like the Warriors and Clippers, but was utterly disappointed. I will say the Boler-less, Steve Brown games are a bit painful, even though I like the guy. Thankfully, those are rare.

If I remember correctly, I think Harpring's deal is for his family and as a man who has to travel for work and be away from my young children more than I'd like, I totally understand. It sucks and if I can do anything to reduce that time, I will. Especially where he missed so much time already travelling as a player, it makes sense to me to work a deal like he has.

The only thing I'm not a fan of this year is Alema's new co-host. Can't put my finger on why, but I'm not a fan of his.

After 20 years of NBALP I can attest to that. There are literally 4 or 5 guys who stand out - the rest of them range from mediocre to outright awful.

The one good thing I can say is the amount of obnoxious homerism has declined in most markets - it's still there but when I first got LP there were certain opposing team's feeds that were completely unlistenable.

Can't believe the thread made it this far without a mention of Thurl's MVP-level attire. Alema on the other hand...lol.

Thurl is solid. As for Captain Dumbass



"They put it in the blender, like you talk about"

No, CD, they swung the ball after a broken up play kick out. His utter stupidity will never end, so maybe my complaining should. Thankfully we get ESPN two games a year.

The worst part about this is Thurl backed him up "yeah, the blender...". You know the guy is sitting there jabbing his pen nto his ribs and thinking the same thing we all are.
