What did they do just put some random names into a hat? Where was my name?

I can't believe Muggsy got a shot. HORRIBLE.

He wasn't horrible. I have some pet peeves - like announcers calling players the wrong name, eg: "Smith blocks Okafor's shot attempt" - when it was Horford who actually blocked it and Smith was no where near the play - which Muggsy did on a few occasions.

Like most here, I'm biased, but Steph is WAYYYY better because her observations are sharper, quicker and on point.

I don't feel that Muggsy made any great observations or added anything really significant. So he was pretty much Steve Martin V.2

muggsy is awful. he was awful on the radio last year and just as bad last night. i cringed when i saw he was announcing. i think i understood 40% of what he said last night. i love muggsy, just not as an announcer.
