Yao makes a good move. Clyde, walls don't move. And that whole "Great Wall" thing really only works when Yao is on D and gets a block. In fact, the original Great Wall was a defensive concept. They didn't build a huge wall so they could use it to invade Siberia. Yao makes a pedestrian turn-around J. Bill, there was nothing "shaking" about it. It was a simple turnaround J performed by a 7'5" guy. It was a good shot. A money move. It was not a shake. Save it for when he actually shakes. And really, once or twice a game is all that is necessary. I don't have to hear "Great Wall" or "Shanghai Shake" every dang time Yao touches the ball. Thank you. That is all.
put it on mute and listen to Peterson and foley thats what i do btw anybody know why foley wasnt there last night?
well i agree and dissagree. the great wall is a cool nickname for yao. mount mutombo was a cool nickname for deke. denver fans weren't complaining "mountains don't move." at the same time, it doesn't quite sound right to say you can't stop the great wall. lol
I was listening to Calvin on 97.5 talking about Yao... and he mentioned he's 7'7. I have been wondering if he had, indeed, put on another inch or two. Anyone have a recent measurement?
Did anyone catch this Bill: that was too easy clyde: Of course it was an easy called. Over the back right in front of the official Bill: uhh i mean't ginobili shot clyde: oh lol at clyde
It used to make my teeth hurt everytime Clyde dished out those cliches... But now it all became quite comical really...
I love Clyde. His unintentional comedy rating is a solid 9. I actually turn up the volume because I can't wait to hear what dumbass thing he'd say next. I wish they had a three man booth of Clyde, Bill, and Calvin. That would rival Kenny, Ernie, and Charles.
THE CHEESECAKE! LOL!! That was funny. And what's with Worrell's hair? Did his barber die? Wolfman need a trim. sheesh.
Good stuff. Clyde needs to disappear like Hakeem does and only show his face every once in awhile. He will get that mysterious "Legend" status. He doesn't do that though. I see and hear him every game and it makes me want to puke. Some dipsh*t as FSN thought it would be a great idea to give this guy a mic and let him talk. WTF? He says the same motherfarkin crap every game over and over and over and over. FSN is so sh*tty. They need to get rid of Clyde, destroy Worrell, only let Bullard do the "Telestrator", and get rid of that stupid "Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh" music at every break and do something about Kevin Eschenfelder's make up issue or I'm going to go down their and kill everyone.
Yeah I blame yao ming for scoring more than 10 field goals so the commentators ran out of lines. See, they will never run out of lines for a guy like carl landry.
Bill Walton doesn't do this on ESPN. There is no way that an announcer should say the same crap over and over. Worrell could honestly record everything that Clyde says and put it on a soundboard. He could push a different button for each of Clyde's four phrases. We wouldn't have to pay Clyde anything that way.
ROFL! Funny stuff. You make a good point on Clyde destroying his image. He was untouchable during his playing days here as a Rocket, but then that UH coaching job came, the numerous public appearances, and now the play-by-play. I've met Clyde in person twice; once randomly walking around the UH campus and once waiting for food at some restaurant. He's nice, but he's very goofy. He drives like an 80 year old lady, and it takes away that whole aura that this guy was once the most exciting, fastest NBA players ever that held his own against Jordan.
You are welcome. Easy problem to solve. There is a volume dial on the remote control, try it out in case you havent. It might help.
