LA's broadcast team

[kobeaki]

matt money smith was a cool questions guy...his knowledge was off the charts, but he seemed pretty mean to some of the callers..

who was the klac play by play announcer

do you mean larry burnett? he was the radio post game guy during the end of the chick era...and he was a total dick...i think money is a bit on the hollywood tip, but has an encyclopedic pop culture knowledge...

Joel is hard to listen too and he likes the Spurs more than he does the Lakers, and Stu although I like him he talks too much for a color commentator.

The first time I saw Joel's face up close in HD.... ew.

Our crew is definitely one of the most unbiased though from what I've heard (compared to Clippers announced who I've listened to a couple of times... and Celtics EWWWW). Stu makes sure to say it when he thinks the ref got something right or when they missed the call to benefit us. I love hearing Stu get snippy with Joel sometimes... I hope others have noticed that. Last year he seemed to just get tired of him half the time.

I looove Stu's stupidass dialogues he makes up haha. "Pau says gimme the ball Kobe. Here you go big man. That was noooooiiceeee"

And I hate Joel's specialty, I know you guys know what I'm talking about. "That was quite the shot Stu, wasn't it?" "He makes it look easy doesn't he" "The bench is looking good tonight aren't they Stu?"...... STFU

Man, I totally agree with you. I love laker's broadcast team...

I watched a couple of celtics games this PRESEASON and it was just brutal. The dude commentating would go crazy after every close-call. Even when celts had their scrubs playing raptors second team he would go mad after a miscall (in his mind). Also when he disliked some player he would poke fun at him at every opportunity. And he thinks he's funny. He would try to impersonate people.

And it was PRESEASON. The guy must go crazy during an important game against a top team...

Chick was the class of any sport. He would always give the opposing players or teams props for playing well, but there was only one team he would ever really mock or talk down about. That was the Lakers.

He set the bar high, and these guys today I think are trying to live up to that standard.


Blazers announcers are the worst homers in the league IMO. It's been brought up before and Blazer fans have come in and basically said "yeah, we know."

they are just terrible,whenever we re playing there and kobe gots a call they are starting to crying.

and lesson from last year s bucks game:they are pretty big homers themselves(miss it )

[LA Forever]

Tommy Heinsohn of the Celtics is the worst.
