    Jps was amazing i used to reinact his voices growing up. But matt thomas has his own unique talent as well. He sounds a bit more professional.

    It broke my heart a little hearing John Paul give us the monotone voice. Great PA man.

    if you closed your eyes and watched the grizzlies rockets game you would think Marc Gasol, Conley and Zbo join Harden on the Rockets ;)

    Why did they let him go?

    He's the best PA announcer in the league.

    Really? Because I was at every game in round 1 against Portland in 2014. All I can hear in my mind is, "LaMarcus...Aldridge."

    Mike Miller scored 30 points at one game I went to a long time ago, and it was really funny hearing JP Stevenson say his name every time.

    haha, it's probably the same game I was at. Miller would always light us up.

    I love him on the PBP, tells a great story and is the perfect balance btw say a minimal and dulcet Dave South for A&M and the OTT and machine gun like Craig Way for TU.
