    Yeah, he gives some pretty good interviews in the locker room after games. I remember Kenny Smith being really articulate in interviews back in the 90's and thinking he had a solid career as a commentator ahead of him. I also recall Clyde Drexler being one of the dullest interviews in the NBA back then and that's carried over into his broadcasting career.

    The PLAYERS are listening to the acapella track of Capella singing and the "game" is they guess what the song is. That's why they are reinstating the song title at the end. (Also check Harden's reaction/answer at the end of episode 1 right before he gets cut off. I'm pretty sure they had several other players guessing Michael Jax and lawl, etc)

    I can't remember if I heard it on the stream (what would be just before this clip starts) or heard the announcer say it over PA at a live game, but I've heard them explain it before.

    I thought this was supposed to be A Capella. It's not.

    A cappella [a kkapˈpɛlla] (Italian for "in the manner of the chapel")[1] music is specifically group or solo singing without instrumental accompaniment,

    This would be so much better without the music.

    Who came up with this segment anyway? Pure genius, Clint has style.

    Nominate the song you want to hear for vol.3.

    I suggest 4pm's version of sukiyaki, with several other rockets on backing harmonies.

    I think Ryan Anderson and Dekker are having the most fun while not singing.

    Believe it or not I think you're the third person to be concerned about the misuse of "a cappella" in this thread. :cool:
    Fortunately your concern has been addressed:

    Capela's singing voice is completely different from what you would expect; he goes full castrato despite having a deep voice. It reminds me of Mikey from Disney's Recess... but in reverse.

    Hilarious. The great thing about it is that Clint really goes for it. He's 100% all in.

    We all know Dekker wants in on this Acapella Capela gig. That spells duet to me and nothing is more ridiculous than this:
