He kind of talks like he has some sort of retardation, but I always enjoy listening to him.

I like him; he's a likable guy and he's good at what he does.

He's actually my favorite ESPN NBA guy. A class act.

I pretty much cringe whenever an ESPN NBA analyst is on the screen.

No.
I can't stand him.
I don't know where he's from, but I'm glad I didn't grow up there. The way he speaks just makes the hairs on my neck stand up. and, my teeth clench.
He never gives any new information, and always just repeats the consensus opinion of all other media members. Today he said the Pistons have an advantage at every position besides PF, yet picked the Celtics in 7 games! Really? and he said that the gap between Rasheed and Garnett was rather thin, too.

yea i kinda like what he brings, im just glad there aint no more listening to bill walton rag on the blazers for years then bandwagoned like everyone else in the world and started acting like he is a cornerstone of the franchise calling them his blazers. bill walton is a disgrace as a blazer fan and a disgrace as a basketball fan in general!

He was once a beat writer for the Cavaliers but that was back in the pre-Santa Kemp era. IIRC he's a Louisville guy.

Dude knows his hoops, but I do agree his delivery is often cringeworthy.
