5) Van
5) McCoy
6) Elvin
7) Clyde

Yes...Gene, did both radio and TV in the early 80's and although it may have been to save expenses at the time - he was by far the best. Bill was actually the color commentatry man at the time.

 

rockets only or any team?

if its anyone i have to go with chick hearn as much as i hated the lakers he was the best commentator i've seen for a non-national "unbiased" guy. he was always unbalanced and good

 

Might as well change the title of this thread to "HAY CLYDE DREXLER SUX LOLOL"

998. Vernon Maxwell

999. Clyde Drexler

 

wow. where do they keep the nba archives? i wanna check out a few of those games..

 

What has he done on the air that has made him a poor role model? He is nice to everyone and he always seems to have a good time.

I don't think the fact that he has kids out of wedlock is really any of our business.

Calvin is entertaining and that is what I want...to be entertained.

BTW, Bill Worrel is my favorite. I remember listening to him back in the 80's when we still had Ralph and Akeem. Does anyone remember or know who worked with him back then. Wasn't Hannah Storm working on the Rockets broadcast back then?

 

For TV:

Bill & Calvin

Bill & McCoy

Bill & Bullard

 

McCoy McLeMore was huge, in like 2 sandwhiches huge.

 

1) The King
2) Coach
3) JR
4) Taz
5) Michael Cole
6) Kenny Smith
7) Bill Walton
8) Charles Barkley
9) Bob Costas
10) Dick Vitale

 

HAHA! NICE!

I'd have to say:

1) Calvin Murphy
2) Bill Worrel

3) Matt Bullard

4) Van


X Clyde (he has got to be the worst that I've ever seen )

 

Exactly why is that an important factor????

 

1) Clyde (He's the man)
2) Cynthia Cooper - knows her stuff and really knowledgeable
3) Van Chancelor - Explains the game well and a very fluid talker
4) Bullard - I just like him
5) Bill Worell - Makes funny comments and always jinxes the other team at the line.

 

Ahh...yes, how sweet it is (was). Gene will always be the voice of the Rockets...funny, I also regard Gene E as the voice of the Astros. Hear eather voice for the first time after the off season, and you immediatly get your head back in the game.

 

I'd take the guy that is a poor role model over the dude that sounds like he was a poor dental patient any day.

 

calvin never did it

even if he did

who cares, let the man broadcast

 

Why has nobody mentioned Tom Nissalke yet?

 

know this of houston fans

no matter who the top ___ are, the lowest ranked is always the current one...

be it players or commentators...
