It took a while, but Clyde's gotten a lot better. He used to just chuckle and reword whatever Bill had last said.
"Well Parsons played at Florida, but then spent last year in France so he has a lot of experience. Not your typical rookie" "Well, Clyde, it was only about three games this year during the lockout..." "Yep...heh, heh, heh..."
I thought he actually had a funny one last night. Dalembert (I think) tipped a ball that should have been a rebound into San Antonio's basket. Clyde said, "Uh, wrong basket." Made me think of the football player many years ago who after a cannon blast on the sideline ran the wrong way and thought he had made a touchdown...
Not their most graceful broadcast. End of OT: Bill: "Who is Hill coming in for?!" Clyde: "Dalembert." Bill: "No, Budinger." Clyde: "You need a rebounder. Like Parsons." Bill: "Wait, Budinger is out... now coming back on the floor. Who are they coming in for?" Clyde: "Budinger was already on the floor." Bill: "But what's going on. They're waiting for the next free throw to let Hill in?" Clyde: "... Hill came in for Dalembert, Bill." Bill: "Oh, right. Who's on first?" Clyde: "We aren't. Heh heh heh"
if clyde says all this on the sidelines, i wonder what he says in bed. NASTY INTENTIONS! who wants to find out?!
My fav Drexlerism is anytime the Rockets have the ball for the final possession on offense. Lowry starts dribbling and Drexler tells everyone "The Rockets are going to run a play called 1-4 flat with Lowry at the top". -_- It's the only play he ever calls out...
Lol he times it perfectly to where Scola/Hill runs to set the screen in the middle of his statement. Superstar timing
