    We make fun of Clyde for "baby seals" and other dumb comments, but I don't think he's ever make one like one made by Portland's TV guy Mike Rice tonight:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>"You've heard of Birth of a Nation? This is birth of a center." - Mike Rice on Meyers Leonard</p>&mdash; Kevin Pelton (@kpelton) <a href="https://twitter.com/kpelton/status/318220729919369217">March 31, 2013</a></blockquote>

    Hmm... yeah, about that.

    He must be a film buff.

    Don't mind either of them, but I think Mike Rice blends being silly and real basketball analysis very well, he can be pretty funny at times. He's there with Bulls' Stacey King and Warriors' Barnett as announcer feeds I look forward to.

    Maybe because The Birth of a Nation was used as a recruiting tool for the KKK

    Perhaps, but this isn't something I'd want to casually invoke during a basketball broadcast:

    I don't mind Mike Rice either. Listened to him countless times mostly during the Brandon Roy heyday. But it's about time for him to give it up.

    It's bad because I can't even figure out what birth of a center could mean.

    At least you know what Clyde is talking about.

    It's almost like the "chink in the armor" comment.
