    Are you kidding me? Blazers commentators are the tw0 biggest homers in the entire league. **** Mike n Mike.

    I say that in the most sincere way. This coming from a Portland guy who's 2nd favorite team is the Blazers.

    Back in the day Blazers had Bill Schonley and Steve Snapper Jones. Both were freaking awesome... as a matter of fact Snapper might be one of my favorite broadcasters all time.

    I like the Blazers, Kings, Lakers and Knicks. Those are up there for me. Celtics, Clippers and Nuggets are by far the bottom of the pile. Nuggets piss me off the most.

    Clippers are clearly the best! Lawler is a legend.

    Get your bingo out of here, they are the worst. That younger guy was even more biased on calls againt lac. Mr Bingo was actually trying to convince him that they were fouls.
    Also weren't they suspended a few years back for racial slurs at Hadadi?
    Smh

    I would take the Warriors commentators as my #1. Blazers commentators are in the bottom half of the league in my opinion (as are ours, if we're being honest).

    People that don't like the Rockets commentators aren't forced to listen to the Mavs commentators. I've got friends in common with Mark Followill, had lunch with the guy - he's a great guy..but listening to him and Derek Harper is really annoying. Their terrible homers. Harper mumbles and is hard to understand and neither one of them will admit when the Maverick players do something wrong.

    At least Bill Worrell is honest and will tell you things like "the Rockets got away with a foul" or "the officials got it right" even when it goes against us. When the Mavs announcers watch a replay and it shows that Mavericks fouled, travelled, or whatever...they won't even acknowledge it..even if they complained about the call in the first place. I remember the 2005 playoffs when they'd say crap during the play by play like "and Yao sets another moving screen". It was horrible. Even the DFW Ticket sports radio station called them out about being Homers after that series.

    I'd be very happy if I could listen to the Rockets commentators.

    Celtics and Spurs announcers are the WORST in the business. Just unlistenable and the homerism is beyond any levels of any other teams.

    I like Jim Barnett with the Warriors. Though this is his last season as the Warriors color commentator, worked for the Warriors over 20 years I believe. I remember him calling Warrior games in the 90s.

    One of Chicago's announcers is really annoying. He reminds me of that 52 year old wearing a purple button up (first 4 top buttons, unbuttoned) at the club trying to be hip & cool.

    Just annoying.

    I would also agree that the Blazers guys are pretty bad. The radio guy is even worse. Constant whining and sniping about bad calls the entire game.
