LOL Did ya'll hear the pregame talks where Calvin and Bill were poking (no pun intended) fun at Barkley? hehe. Then did you see the TNT after Knicks game? They showed an old clip of Charles Barkley w/ the 76ers and the whole team singing a Christmas Carol. Then they said Charles should go on a diet so that he can look like that again. Then he says that not during holidays, you cant lose weight during holidays. Overall, Charles is doing a good job at TNT in my opinion. Kenny, Eddie and him keep the show fresh and entertaining. And anyone who thinks Calvin and Bill aren't the best commentators in the L are crazy. ------------------ Francis out top, 9 seconds on the clock, he gives a no look pass to Cuttino Mobley, 4 seconds left, Mobley passes to an open Langhi in the corner with 1 second left! Langhi at the buzzer.......YES!!! How Sweet It Is!!
Charles is the best. He always has something to say, most of the time funny stuff. Even after his NBA playing days he's still rolling out the quotes. ------------------ Cuttino Mobley Online
Yeah, Calvin and Bill are the best of the regional announcers I've heard. They're opinionated, but at least their ideas don't come out of thin air. They're playful and complementary to players without appearing servile-which alot of the regional commentators seem to be. So yeah, we're lucky . ------------------ Shandon Anderson rocks. The lottery sucks. Playoffs 2001.
Calvin Murphy is the worst god damned announcer in the league! Did you hear the other night(can't remember which game) when he after a good play by Shandon he said" he sure ain't no camel jockey Bill" WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!?!?!?! ------------------ "Championing the cause of Junior Members everywhere"
Hey, Calvin Murphy is tight. Him and Bill were mentioned by NBAtalk or something like that to be one of the league's best commentating duos. Yes Calvin does say stupid stuff a whole lot, but that makes the game entertaining. Would you rather have some old dude just saying the same old thing without any excitement at all? Besides, Calvin does have some nice insight usually. ------------------ da ability to focus attention on important things is a defining characteristic of intelligence - alaskanSnowman
This may be ignorant, but can some one tell me what a camel jockey is? ------------------ Happy Holidays
first off it was moochie who he called that 2nd is calvin says really stupid things he said last night "wilt was more chiseled. shaq doesnt look too muscular" excuse me? have u seen shaq calvin? calvin just says stupid stuff and whines alot. its hard to concentrate on the game w/ some little man in an awful suit is ranting about something idiotic or talking about cookies. bill worrell is usually really good. overall they are a very good duo. itz just calvin is foolish sometimes. ------------------ --TEX
I've seen camel races in the middle east, not that Im from there, but there slow animals and Calvin was simply implying that Shandon Anderson is very fast. They are far and away the best announcers in the league.Calvin is hilarious in his suits and when he just starts breaking out singing and eating cookies during the game Anybody else hear Worrell sometimes cuss at his assistants as they go into commercial? I laugh my arse off when I hear Bill say what the hell is wrong with my mike, well damnit get it fixed. ------------------
Normally, camel jockey is a racist term for people from the middle east. I have no idea what Calvin meant. ------------------
I really like Bill and Calvin. Even though they can get old, etc., they have energy and enthusiasm. Gene Peterson is also really good. Altogether, they kick the crap out of the Spurs announcers. . . ------------------ "I am who I am, who I am, well who am I?" -- Dave Matthews Band "Dancing Nancies"
