Boston is most annoying followed by Portland.
Stacy King with the Bulls is painful when Rose is playing.
Orlando has the most boring broadcast in the league. That group would have been let go in just about any other city.
That said I still can't stand Sean Elliot. He is a former player not that far removed from playing. Yet it seems like the only team he ever watches are the Spurs. In terms of strengths and weaknesses of players that they don't see often he seems lost at times.

Orlando.
The Magic do nothing wrong, do not commit fouls....they are perfect.
Loyalty is to the logo.

Surprise anyone would say the Lakers. They are more tough on the Lakers than anyone. IMO most Big City announcers are somewhat unbiased. Those cities know the game to well to just be blind homers it often reflects in the tv broadcast. Except for Boston which is a joke. Stacy King is a homer but he still be very critical of the Bulls when he needs.

Yeah even going back to the Chick era, Chick and Stu would always point out when a call was questionable and it went the Lakers way.

Almost all of the local announcers are awful. On the Bulls board, King and Funk are a running joke. Sean Elliot deserves to get fired. Boston's are terrible. Portland's can talk a long walk off a short pier. Orlando's suck. etc.
Its much, much easier to come up with a list of local announcers that are tolerable. NJ and NY are the best that come to mind for me.
Blah, blah, blah

Celtics announcers are so bad it's hilarious and I enjoy it.

Usually they are pretty objective but every once in while they find a team and start bashing the hell of it, Last night was a perfect example.
No idea why they felt the need to keep bashing the bobcats throughout the game, I hate when commentators do that.
As far as officiating goes, they usually point out the blatant mistakes(in favout of either side)but for the most part they dont really say anything.
