I like Van Gundy the best. Smart, funny and honest.

Van Gundy, Mike Fratello, and Marv Albert are one of the smartest. To listen, I would go with Kevin Harlan Doug Collins and/or Reggie Miller.

I think Greg Anthony gives the best GM-like analysis.

Hubie Brown is too senile to make sense. He tends to rant on for five minutes, then forget what he was ranting about.

I love Hubie Brown, but this season he hasn't been as good. But to me he's the most objective.
