Re: Kent fired
Huh... I never minded Calabro... thought he was pretty solid. I started muting Kent. He's one of the singular worst announcers I've ever heard, at least that was my subjective opinion of him. He made the home-feed unwatchable for me.

Yes, he's currently doing television for the Bucks. He's outstanding.
I miss those days when he & KC we're calling games together. Best broadcasting duo. I'd put them up against anyone.

Kent was the play-by-play guy. Harvey was an analyst, I believe. Hurd is our current analyst. I thought our announcer team was adequate, but honestly, I usually listen to the opponent feeds.
Anything is better than Rice and Barrett. Those guys where garbage, especially Barrett. I love listening to homers, nothing wrong with being a homer. Barrett, in particular, had zero credibility. There's a difference between homerism and completely misrepresenting the game. Barrett was promoting his own agenda, not the Blazers.

Yeah, Harvey was BRUTAL. It was always so terrible with he and Wheels calling games, because Wheels was AWESOME as a PBP, heart-on-his-sleeve caller...one of the best, all time IMHO. Harvey was just not a good color guy by any stretch...

Re: Kent fired
Is there any chance Wheels can get his health under control and come back?

Re: Kent fired
Kent and Lamar had a good synergy, nothing annoying. Lamar and Colabro were a bit awkward
