    I find him annoying as hell. CA is much better now imo.

    I wish we had our senile lineup back. Bill and Clyde at least was fun to watch.

    Craig either doesn't feel comfortable with Ryan or outright doesn't like working with him. He cuts Ryan off a lot and sometimes won't even engage in dialogue with him lol.

    Maybe I'm alone, but I like him way more than Bullard already. Felt like Bullard's lines got too stale as the season went on, and his excitement at big plays just wasn't there. Hollins has been great at amping it up when big plays happen, and his commentary throughout the game is pretty good.

    He’s fine. I loved Bullard and Clyde as players, but they weren’t good color commentators. Bullard was ok, but pretty dry and corny. Clyde was just….

    Yeah Hollins is very knowledgeable of the game and explains what’s going on for both sides of the ball. He also gives his takes on Rockets deficiencies like not getting into their sets quickly enough or missing passes to open man. He’s energetic and fun, which is great for entertainment value.

    I think he gives good insights, but he really needs to learn how to play off Craig. He always leaves Craig hanging when Craig sets him up. Its so awkward.
