    Here we go...this is by far 100X times worse than Clyde's "Seal Clubbing" Fiasco
    Thoughts?

    I seriously think Clyde commentates most games while halfway drunk. That's the only way I can explain how tone-deaf he usually is.

    Wish I could say I was surprised at his remarks. Feel bad for Brownie and Bull getting lumped in with him.

    You know, I actually missed part of that. Didn't hear them joking. If true, that's shameful. That was one of the more serious looking injuries I've seen in the NBA in a while. If Clyde was being inconsiderate that wouldn't surprise me. I suppose I'd expect a little more class from Bill and Bull, but lets face it; the rockets' telecast is one of the worst in the business. It's been that way for many years now.

    Anyone have a recap of what was said?

    I think It was sometimg like how that long pause with mkg on the floor helped the rockets get a timeout and stop momentum for the bobcats cuz they werey rolling at that time, don't really rmbr the joke but i do know they were laughing quite a bit...

    He started talking about how the injury break was to the Rockets advantage because it stopped Charlotte's momentum. Got real awkward for a bit

    Just saw a three minute clip of it on YouTube and I don't think anyone was joking about it. Clyde was joking about a time he got hit hard and knocked out during the game, but even then, he wasn't really joking.

    I was thinking as that happened Clyde is the worst announcer you would want in that situation, he's utterly oblivious and insensitive, knew he would say something stupid.

    Well I guess I missed the part where Clyde was talking about momentum.

    All game long Clyde was describing MKG as a guy made out of rubber...always gets back up...but then he brought up the joke when MKG was knocked out cold...i dont think they realized that he was out cold...
