Ann Meyers-Drysdale

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like they are watching women's gymnastics at the Olympics when she commentates? Or synchronized diving?

She's terrible.

I appreciate what she's done for the sport but I don't really like her or Albert much as commentators.

I miss Leander and Bender.

Our home commentating is pretty boring, no offense to her. Maybe next season we'd get few decent commentators or maybe not. Not sure how long their contract lasts till.

Even our commentators (except EJ) suck, not to mention that we have the absolut worst PA announcer in the entire league. Bring back Gary, Tom and Cedric!

Depends if you're a pro tanking or not. You are, then you want to sit her the rest of season and get some burn to a younger commentator.

I really don't mind her or Albert. They're fine, not great and all but it's not their fault if the product on the court isn't good so...I do prefer Eddie Johnson with Albert, their chemistry is better than with Ann Meyers. At least they're not total homers like blazers tv crew. And they know what they're talking about.

Not being sexist, but I really dislike it when a woman commentates on a men's sport. This applies to all sports in general.

I agree, and like Eddie and Albert and the chemistry they have. I don't care for Ann at all.
