 I just finished watching the Cleveland vs Boston game and could not believe the incredible bias of thr Boston commentators. Throughout the whole game all I could hear was conplaining by them (yes there where some miss calls) . It was fustrating to hear when paul pierce hit a fading away jumper in the corner to beat the shot clock and for them to say "only he can do that". Actually no, he is not the only one who can do that. I have witnessed Kobe, Melo, Lebron, Wade do that many many times.

Then in the last few mintues Varejao as always made a great hustle play to get Cavs the ball back and the commentator when nuts saying "these Refs need to be fired".

On a side note, how amazing was Kyrie’s game winner.

I hate most commentators.  They are all bias and annoying.  When talking about Lebron they ignore the fact that he has 0 rings or blatantly overtalk about it and they act like the heat are automatic champions..  They also bump up controversy when unnecessary.  During the melodrama they would just randomly start talking about it in the middle of an Heat vs Magic game.  Commentators seem to  have no sense of reality too.  ‘Looks like lebron was thrown down.’  *Lebron clearly flops* 

They love their facts though.  Since numbers are everything.

I’m a Boston Celtics fan and I hate the Celtics commentators as well, they are just two old guys complaining about literally everything that goes wrong. I’m all for a little home town love, but it’s ridiculous how biased they are. How they remain on the air is a mystery to me.

I know they are Celtic legends, but whatever they started off as has gone horribly wrong and they need some fresh blood.

The only commentators I like is the Knicks ,Walt Frazier and Mike Breen. They keep it real.

The Cavs Commentators are pretty funny. All they say is "throw the hummer down", "deep in the Q" or "get that weak stuff outta here". hahaha.

I actually like the Laker commentators.  They rather point out both of the teams’ flaws rather than just talking about how good the Lakers are.  They actually analyze the game on both ends, whether it’s blaming the Lakers or getting excited when Kobe gets on fire.  Not to mention, they actually agree with the refs and seem paritally impartial.

But boy, do they love talking about Bynum though.  They talk about him so much, even when he’s not in the damn game they talk about him!  Last season it was Lamar Odom but now they continue to blabber on about Bynum.  Whether it be negative or positive, even if Bynum isn’t playing they say, "Bynum sure does have tons of potential, if he could stay healthy, the Lakers would be contenders even after Kobe."
Really Detective?  Is that so?

LA is spoiled. Stu Lance(lakers) is the best I’ve heard. I feel like I’m learning in an interesting lecture when he covers games. He is biased a tad, loves KB, but real nonetheless. He will bash KB when he is f-in up.

Also The clippers Ralph Lawler is the one of the most entertaining. Check him out.

Bulls commentators are good too, love hearing Stacey King’s commentary. Biased but fun to hear.

kevin calabro (sonics) was awesome.

 I like the Pacers commentators alright. Quinn Buckner sounds like he’s trying to win a Clark Kellogg impression contest, but he’s not afraid to admit when the Pacers get a call that they shouldn’t have.

It’s true, all my friends and me know how and say how bias Tommy Heinsohn is.

[BrentSuriaga01Participant]

That clipper commentator is very funny! Whenever a player sinks in a jumpshot or a three he says "BINGO". Hubie Brown is also a good commentator

[marcusfizer21Participant]

He cracked me up when the Bulls played the Bucks… He said "Jennings is taking a scholarship to Rose University".. hahahahaha… I laughed hard on that one…

Two of the most annoying commentators, to me, are Tommy Heinsohn (Celtics) and Austin Carr (Cavs)

[Toronto16Participant]

Stacey King is the best commentator, (Chicago) "Ohhh! Stop it! Stop it!"

 

And yea Boston’s commentators are horrible too.  I’ve heard Tommy Heinsom compare Big Baby to Moses Malone.

Toronto has this guy named Leo Rautins who is terrible as well, as if watching the Raptors wasn’t difficult enough.

[Maniac MaciejParticipant]

Lay off Tommy Heinsohn…he’s like 84.

 I think the whole Nets crew is the best Ian Eagle, Mike "The Czar" Fratello, and Jim Spanarkel are the best around. They make Nets game interesting to watch even though the Nets are bad. Ian and "The Czar" have the funniest conversations throughout the broadcast, they are kind of like arguing but in a funny way. Ian also does NFL and NCAA basketball on CBS on the weekends.

heinsohn can be biased all he wants hes a hall of famer and drinks a case of dewers a day

Timberwolves broadcasters are really good. They call the game and analyze both teams, but also show a little home town bias, but that is expected.  They are a home town broadcast team. They also are not afriad to talk bad about the team to though.
