Jalen Rose as a Commentator

magicfan4life05 · Post #1 » by **magicfan4life05** » Fri Apr 18, 2008 11:08 pm

has been great all season long. I've been watching him on espn since he filled in occasionally as a player/commentator but since he retired, he's done great and i love listening to him. He brings great knowledge, professionalism, and insight to the table to counter my other main men stephen a. :lol:

what do you guys think

I'm sorry I don't think he provides much.

Him and Reggie Miller are two of the worst.

Reggie Miller is given a free pass because I love him

Reggie is horrible.

I actually like Jalen Rose. He isn't as bad as Reggie Miller, Steve Kerr, Stephen A. Smith, or Ric Bucher.

You can't say everyone's one of the worst. If Rose is bad, what does that make SAS? He thinks Denver can take LA to 7 games...

Yes I can. They bring it on themselves.

And about SAS, well that's what he is and always has been.

Doug Collins and JVG are superior to all

Rose is okay... Reggie's pretty good

Reggies pretty good? I dont know if its that hes usually with a more dominant color commentator like JVG or what but that guy really doesnt bring any basketball knowledge to the table. I think he sucks.

Jalen Rose however is normally funny and he often gives the viewers inight, I dont see Reggie doing that.

Jalen Rose is pretty bad, I don't think he provides much in terms of analysis. He's not as bad as some ESPN analysts (Bucher, SAS) but he's up there.

Reggie Miller sucks, Jalen is barely passable. Why mention Steve Kerr, when he is GM of the Suns and not announcing anymore.

I think Reggie's insight is fine mostly, and I find him funny

As if my opinion carries any legitimacy whatsoever, but I agree.

I don't have a problem with Reggie. I'd listen to him above most of these former NBA players.

To me Rose doesn't sound comfortable talking in public. Very awkward on screen.

I don't understand how SAS has a job.

I dont care for Rose, and I hate SAS.

reggie probably had the best quote of any announcer this year when he was talking about the 'titty' during the 3 pt. shootout

Close your eyes when you listen to him and picture Jazz from the Fresh Prince talking.

Oh my god, yes! That was legendary. Charles, Harlan, and Kenny (I think) were like "what the ****? lol". I ate it up.

Right here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mGMNDzqz_o#

I love how Charles goes back to the titty topic, after Kapono gets into his shooting run. When Harlan shouts at the end,I think aside from reacting to Kapono's shot, he suttely is trying to put aside the breast talk.

And Charles' "Apologize to me!" lines are just awesome..

That really is who he sounds like...(Rose)
