    Zach Lavine checks into the game for the TWolves...
    Worrell : "Well, here's the slam dunk champ ..."
    Clyde : "Uh oh .... Adam Levine."
    Worrell : "No, not Adam. Adam was singing last night on the Academy Awards"
    Clyde : "Maroooooooon 6!"
    Worrell : "Maroon.... did they add one?"

    Train wreck of a sequence ... lol

    I remember he said the EXACT same thing twice yesterday in the span of about 5 mins. It was either about Wiggins being only 19 and referring to his height, or referring to Pekovic's size. I love our commentators though, just thought that was funny

    There was the comment by Bill Worrell where he said former Rocket Jim Petersen played on one of those championship teams for Houston from the 70's. Wth? I hope he was joking, but nobody was laughing. lol.

    I think he said "from the finals team of the 70's " still not correct but a bit closer to the truth.

    50 or so seconds to go and the Kings are down 6:

    Bill: Should the Kings go for three here or a quick two?
    Clyde: Gotta go for 3. They need two of them.

    This is seriously the best we can do for announcers?

    "That's a blatant violation of not knowing the rules!" - Clyde on a dumb traveling call.

    I love Clyde, but man he is so bad on the broadcasts. I don't know why they refuse to just put Calvin back in his rightful chair next to Bill.

    Called "his patent flopping move" (or something along those lines) on Cousins who was just standing outside the restricted area while Ariza I belive charged into him. Sure he fell down but it was clearly not a flop and Cousins known for falling down?

    I think there was around 1:22 left in the game and the Kings were down 6 or 7 points and they fouled the Rockets unintentionally, sending them to the line. Clyde criticized the Kings for waiting too long to foul because there was no time left.....with 1:22 remaining.

    He kept on using his "nothing short of spectacular" line when describing Harden, Cousins, and even Steph Curry...."I just really enjoy watching..."

    Ridiculous sequence last night when Bull was trying to determine if a Clear Path was 1 FT and the ball or 2 FTs and the ball. It went something like this.

    Bull: They're reviewing Clear Path Foul, which would be 1 FT and the ball for the Kings.
    Clyde: Exactly.
    Bull: Okay.... Looks like Clear Path Foul is actually 2 FTs and the ball.
    Clyde: That's right, exactly right.
    Bull: [after refs review] Looks like they will call it Clear Path Foul, so it will be 2 FTs and the ball for the Kings.
    Clyde: Yea, that's the right call.

    Clyde is a joke with no talent behind the mic.
