The Lakers PA dude is epic.

Lakers and Knicks are the best.

Hawks(THAT FOUL IS OFFENSIVE, and the way he says three pointer), Dallas'(has an orgasm on the mic when Dallas takes the lead in the 4th, and last years Spurs(his voice and the intros, uch) are the worst.

I'm a Raps fan and I like Mason. His style is unique and he gets the crowd fired up.

The Detroit guy is Hot Garbage for sure...

The Heat guy is awful... Especially his "STAND UP, AND MAKE SOME NOISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSE for your MIAMIIII HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAT" Just shut up dude...

The new Cavaliers' guy is fantastic... In fact, Olivier Sedra was used for the olympics this year because of how great he is...Lot better than the former guy we had... Take a listen..

I agree, he is pretty good. "LLLLLEEEEBRON!..JAMES!"

Someone else in this subject said that the New Orleans PA is annoying, but I like him.
"C-P-3 FOR THREEEE"

Lakers guy and Jazz' Dan Roberts are the best, especially when Roberts says that incoherent phrase ... "Bring it on about that Jazz ..."

Best change the hawks ever made was the pa announcer..

"MAHR-VIN for Threeeeeeeeee" Best ever. You wonder if he has nightmatres about stuttering as much as joe johnson scores in crunchtime.

I agree with your all time picks.

The philly guy was great - when a player on the other team fouled out, he'd say "[player's name] HAS REACHED HIS PRODUCTION QUOOOTA"

Lawence Tanter. No gimmicks, no catchphrases, just pure baritone goodness. Lets his voice do all the work. Save the circus crap for everybody else.

"My feeling was, years ago, that people paid money to come and see the Lakers, not to hear some clown on the PA. I use enthusiasm when the appropriate time comes, but I’m not a cheerleader and I don’t want to be."

cleveland tried a Mason clone - everyone hated him and the next year they replaced him with the guy we have now.

I don't know anything about him, but the guy who was announcing the Celtics when they got their rings sounded terrible to me. I couldn't even stand to watch. He sounded like a coach the day after yelling at refs the whole night before. His voice probably would have been fine for commentating, but not for announcing.

agreed.

color analyst is the biggest homer ever. when the replay comes on to contradict what he says, he still sticks to his original call. very annoying.

Your team's announcer sucks big time because your team is a rival of my team.

Best PA period. He is not obnoxious, he gets the point across while not being boring.
