I can never judge age well with Asians. I remember seeing John Cho in Harold and Kumar and then finding out he was like 37.
I think he's awesome for no other reason than Batman Jones doesn't know who he is. BWAHAHAHA. Seriously though, I don't get the hate. He's good in studio and the Twitter stuff takes up literally like three minutes of a 150-minute broadcast.
I give him an 8/10. The man is naturally likable and his tweet reading always make me pay attention to the tv. He's a good and welcome addition to the Rockets broadcast team. I'm sure his role will improve over time as well.
The fan interaction provides very little to the viewer except for "big grande31" from middle of nowhere texas, who just got his tweet read on air. Ho does a better job of providing informative tweets when he is not on camera. Yes on the young hot girl. Or they should do it like last year, where bullard read them. that is what a lot of the broadcasts for other teams are doing and they save themselves a couple of thousand dollars, donuts or whatever they're paying ho..mauryball!

We know he does more than read tweets. But what we see on television paints a hilarious picture of his job description
This is precisely my point. If you have to look at anything on air that all he/she does is talk about tweets, well, I think Anna is by far the better choice. Otherwise, I know nothing else he does. Be glad if he proves me wrong and starts providing quality coverage for the game other than reading team favorable tweets on air.
Hmmm. You make a good point, I just looked at it. It's kinda taking up lots of space. I'll find a way to trim it.
