If I have to hear Salmi break down the mechanics of a 'pocket bounce pass' one more time I'll jump off a bridge and slit my wrist on the way down.

Carter reminds me more of a more knowledgeable Sarge Matthews than a Jaworski type. He brings some genuine passion to the game and a useful background knowledge as both player and coach.

at times last year,i had to mute the TV just because of how bad Salmi was.
He had the worst calls ever and would state the dumbest facts possible...

wow....a debate between Salmi and Mad Dog is like a debate between Robitussin and NyQuil....sure they do the job, but doe annyone really WANT them?

I want John Gervich from the Prism days....called the game alone most of the time and was top notch

huh? wtf???

perhaps you mean Gus Johnson? Not for nothing, but that's a bit reckless, is1531... meanwhile, he's comfortably doing the knicks & NCAA. Zumoff is here to stay. Bring on Mad Dogggggg!

Listen, you do not have to curse, I meant Gus Johnson. Bring him in and dump Zumoff who stinks. :banghead:

Hey, while we're at it why not brink back Jack Ramsey. he was great, and I'm pretty sure he's not dead yet!

LOL! I'm glad to see that Bob checks in on the board. Seriously though.... I'd love to know what he meant by "out of a job".

I talked to a friend of his and they said he is still with the sixers as far as they know.

Sorry man, I got a little defensive of Gus... I'm just a big fan.

John Gurvitch was the MAN! That brings back memories, JB-S... Wow, I miss PRISM.

I vote for Jack Ramsey, then Mad Dogg.

I doubt they could get him for a full time color man, but Jack would be perfect for the Nash post game analyst spot. The guy is a legend.

Why would Doctor Jack want to haul his azz in every Sixer game to do that? If I was him I'd be resting and reflecting on how I'm the man.

I hope he does come back because if he doesn't who will explain to us what rookie "instant amnesia'' is 17 times each game?

I also doubt he was too pleased with the way his son-in-law (O'Brien) was treated by the organization during his short coaching tenure.
