    Everyone else pales in comparison to Murphy.

    Murph is a guy who bleeds Rockets Red. He was Rudy T's roommate on the road for years. Damn, I miss the guy working the games with Bill.

    Bull's breakdown of plays are clear as mud.

    Love Clyde as a player, but Bullard by a mile as a commentator. I absolutely love Bill, I think he is one of the all time best.

    Drexler's idiocy is comical. Bullard, something about him just annoys me? Drexler wins.

    I guess Bullard, but I always prefer a non-local broadcast of Rockets games if available.

    Bill is a star, but with Calvin, the game coverage flowed. Calvin was the Double Star. Sure, sometimes it flowed like diarrhea from a sick dog, but it flowed, and ever since Calvin left, Bill has been constipated.

    FREE BILL! HIRE CALVIN BACK!!!

    I wish we could get JVG to call our games with Bill. That would be a great combo.

    Murphy for sure. I'm sure you all remember his singing voice was a combination of Fergie and Jesus.

    I used to hate Clyde's cliched and insipid commentary more, but now that the "Bill and Bull Sickeningly Ignorant Homeriffic Extravaganza" has become what it is, I just prefer national TV or the other teams announcers on LP.

    I love Drexlers 'Woooooowwww'

    But, I'd have to say... whoever says 'Hey Bud, lets party' the least.

    It's very close to ruining whatever Chase just did, for me.

    bullard needs to lay off the jokes and analyze the game more

    and all of them need to stop complaining about bad calls

    Of those two, Drexler. Bullard is just annoying at times. Especially the 'I'm gonna see how many Motown songs I can get into this game at the expense of actually talking about the game' nonsense.

    Bill Worrell is one the best in the business.

    Maybe they should just try someone new...
