    If I had the patience, I'd start making a compilation of announcers saying his name wrong. At about 1 second per clip, I imagine by the end of the year I'd have ~7 hours of material.

    I'm sure as the Rockets play different teams, other broadcasters will get his name wrong.

    We apologize to Greek fans for the ineptness of NBA broadcasters. For the record, it started with Clyde on the very first home preseason broadcast. Bill said he practised it the whole day at home while Bull has played in Greece.
