I went back 8 pages to see if there already was a topic on this, but couldn't find it.

Anyway, thanks to League Pass, many of us have an opportunity to watch the local broadcasts of other teams. I like to hear other broadcast teams (mostly) to hear different perspectives. In no particular order, here are broadcast teams I like to tune into (that are not my home team - Wizards - broadcasters):

Orlando
Phoenix
New York (I like Clyde's use of odd adjectives and adverbs...."TMac is ubiquitous")
Portland
Miami
Indy

What are yours?

New Jersey
Miami
Phoenix

Denver.

I have league pass too. I actually quite enjoyed Portlands and Indianas. I can't stand Memphis, Boston and Denvers.

I personally couldn't stand Portland or Atlanta the last couple times I heard them.

I like Philly, New York, Pheonix.

portland
indy

NOT BOSTON'S.

I hate the Detroit announcer and I'm a Pistons fan.
Just say NO to George Blaha.

why they are great...

on the topic golden state by far has the best announcer
New Jersey
New york
Phoenix
kings
are also great.

I don't mind Eagle and Mark Jackson for the Nets, but Jackson really is Captain Obvious.

"Jason Kidd has such great court vision. It allows him to get his teammates open shots, for a chance to get a bucket."

Im rather shocked people are picking the blazers. Are play-by-play guy Mike Barrett is great IMO, but our color guy Mike Rice is a horrible homer and ive seen mention in gamethreads from other teams fans they find him annoying.

I cant stand my own Blazers guys, or Heinshon

I loved Atlantas guys though

for milkdud, I like the Blazers play-by-play guy...he's really good. (And I'm not a Portland fan).

The color guy is okay. If you think he's a homer, tune into a Boston or Chicago game one day. Then, you'll appreciate your broadcast team a lot more.

I plan on getting league pass next year (finnaly got the HD tv ) I travel a fair amount so I also enjoyed Indy guys. I havent listen to the bulls guys in about 5 years (dunno if they are the same) but they didnt seem that bad at that time.

By the way, milkdud - and all. NBA League Pass is in their FREE PREVIEW PERIOD now until January 27th. Watch out-of-market games now for free.

I'm a Memphis fan, and I agree. Pete Pranica is awful with his niche sayings (used to be "dances and drops," but he's chilled on that this season) - although Touhy occassionally has something insightful to say despite his ... effeminate ... tone.

I watch the Nets a lot and really like their Broadcasters. Any team with broadcaster's that aren't homer, I like. Basically everyone except Boston and Toronto.

I really like the Nets crew as well. I would hate my Rockets' crew, because Worrell is such a homer and Clyde has no clue some times (Rafer Alston, a dark horse candidate for All Star?!), but they've been around, literally, forever. Hell Bill was doing TV when Clyde was playing with Hakeem, and even before that. I get used to them.

Atlanta's crew is really growing on me, why Steve Smith doesn't have a TNT or ESPN gig is beyond me.

The Pacers broadcasters suck. Chris Denari knows nothing about basketball, and Quinn Buckner always says right in the middle of a shot if it is going in or not, dude leave some suspense. Stacey Paetz blinks way too much.

You know what I find funny? Chris Denari kept saying that our perimeter defense needs to stay close to Monta Ellis because supposedly he is a "great" perimeter shooter. And also, he sometimes says a shot is a three 5 feet inside the three point line, WTH?
