    Clyde was a great player for the Rockets.
    However he's making Calvin Murphy look like Shakespeare. He's making the fans with NBA league pass pray that we get the other team's commentators.

    Which ex-Rocket would you replace Clyde with?

    i always thought mike newlin did a great job filling in for calvin. i'm surprised he wasn't offered the job. he has a bit of a lisp at times though.

    Turbo! He doesn't say a word, which is about the same as Drexler. :D

    I think even Hakeem would be an improvement over Clyde.

    Let Clyde finish out his contract and replace him with Mutumbo when he retires.

    No seriously, I hope Jon Barry has some commentating in his future. Guy has some classic lines on 610am at times.

    Mike Newlin is the best I've heard - I like him better than Calvin.

    A toadstool........ANYTHING, would be better than Clyde. Great player, nice guy, but he adds nothing to the telecast despite the creampuffs tossed to him by Bill. He's out of his element.

    Dunno why to me Mike Newlin sounds like Bill Murry in Caddy Shack.
