I like Air Bull but like other posters, I wish he'd cut down on the homerisms. There seems to be a little too much of it recently. Just call it like you see 'em. (Or maybe he really sees them that way.)
^ LOL Clyde has actually grown on me. I feel he is more natural and doesnt try so hard to be a "commenatator." Bull talks too much and is always "on." Plus Clyde was actually a great player, so I feel he does have some real insight. Dont get me wrong he still sucks.
Bullard is all right, but he's not a great color guy. Yes, he's better than Clyde and light years better than Calvin (who isn't?), but he's corny, a homer, and he doesn't add that much to the conversation. I loved him as a player, but I wish the Rockets would look outside the organization for a color analyst. I'm not usually that bummed if I get the away announcers when I watch the Rockets on League Pass. And for the record, I thought Van Chancellor was the best color guy we've had since I started watching the team. Yes his accent was thick and at times grating, but he gave solid analysis and was a good partner to Bill. Bill is a lot better when has someone to provide quality color, and he can stick to the play-by-play.
I really like his X's and O's analysis. And I've accepted his corny humor as unintended shtick. But he's definitely a homer.
i think he wins the espn comentaror job or was second the end of story is that he rules as a player as commentator and maybe as a coach hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm interesting he rules
correct me if I'm wrong but didn't this joker say that dwight howard was the best/most dominant 5 in the league?
Matt is doing much better job than when he first started. I am beginning to enjoy his comment more and more. Way to go air bull!
Definitely Bulls appreciated and he's bringing the old telestrator back with his "Bulls eye" segments during the game. It reminds me of Calvin Murphy's breakdown of a game. He use to do that well also. I miss Calvin, we really need to bring him back.
Where are Bill and Clyde appreciation threads? Actually, I like Bulls-Eye. And our commentators are funnier than most teams. Sometimes watching tv feed from other team is boring as hell.
Agreed lol, but as a Rockets fan I would rather hear the voice of a biased commentator than a guy who supports the clubbing of cute arctic animals
Hey, I love Bull! He's a certified homer, but he's not as bad as a lot of the guys you hear on league pass. Listening to a Rockets game with another team's announcers is absolute torture, especially when it's the Spurs or the Mavs.
i think both our announcers (bill and matt) does a great job of not being a homer....cuz when i watch other teams on their own channels...the people that call it thinks that all foul commited by their team is not a foul...a lil bit like deke but deke is just funny....=)
