To his credit, I did re-watch the broadcast and when Tirico was talking about how the Clippers were choking, Barry says "Well look at the Rockets defense".
Your English is better than a lot of posters here who claim it as a first language, so, no worries. (You're Greek, right? I was stationed 45 days in Crete about 25 years ago. LOVED that place.) As far as Jon Barry, maybe he was sent to cover the EC finals because someone perceived or complained about his obvious bias. Then again, maybe it's just luck of the draw for us.
On Mike and Mike this morning, Barry clearly exposed his position about the Rockets. When asked the question (not verbatim) Other than playing with heart, what did the Rockets do exceptionally well to defeat the Clippers? Jon Barry's response: a very whiny "Nothing really." He put our win solely on the Clippers collapse. While their collapse had much to do with our win, it was the things we did exceptionally well that shook their foundation to cause the collapse. He's basically that creepy annoying uncle that no one wants around during family gatherings.
That dude is a pure rockets hater, if you do not see it, then it is good for you. Have you seen the JVG comments on TV? He is working on the national TV too like Barry, not a local station for the rockets.
This. If you've never heard Rick Barry in an interview its more of the same. Definitely did not fall far from the tree. Very similar personality and both guys kind of say stupid crap every now and then with the same attitude. Somehow Brent actually seems to have a different personality. Much more engaging and objective while Rick and Jon are just kind of pricks... or at least come off that way in interviews/analysis.
