Game #42|Cavs @ Jazz|Sat. January 24th, 2009

I have NBA League Pass so I get to hear all of the various team's announcers. If you think Fred and AC are bad, believe me, by comparison they are definitely one of the better duos. Golden State's guys ARE very good, maybe the best tandem in the league, but I personally like Fred and AC. Try listening to the Detroit or Milwaukee crews sometime. Ugggh!

I was being a bit facetious but they are several very good announcing teams. For example, the Clipper, Hawks, and Knicks broadcasting teams are all top notch.

I just want want to know why Wally is sporting a coat that's ready for Arctic sledding.

They went to Los Angeles, Portland, Oakland, and Utah (where it's 40 degrees now, at night). What kind of coat does he take when they go somewhere actually cold, like Chicago or Minnesota?

I guess he's dreading the trip home from the Cleveland airport because there is just no other reason for that.

Great win last night. To go 3-1 on arguably our toughest part of the schedule, without two of our starters, is amazing. Not to mention Utah is a solid home team, and were riding a 7 game home winning streak. Now we have a chance to rest up, and get Z back before our next game.

last time i checked 40 degrees is pretty darn cold...not freezing cold but definitely a coat is needed that keeps you warm.

Where I am right now, it's 25 and people are outside with sweaters on doing cartwheels because they're so happy it's not below zero anymore.

I want to go to Maryland where you are.

Ian Eagle (Knicks) is good, but Len Elmore is unlistenable, mainly because his voice sounds like he should be calling a ballet or golf tournament. The guy almost sounds like a flamer at times and I'm not impressed AT ALL with his basketball knowledge.

I live in Atlanta so I get to hear the Hawks duo all the time. Dominique as a color man is below average at best. Moreover, he consistently makes insanely stupid comments, such as this doozy from 6 weeks ago: "Good offense will ALWAYS beat good defense". Or how about last week when he said in all seriousness, "The Hawks deserve to have 3 All Stars. If Joe and Bibby and Josh Smith all don't make it there is something wrong with this league." The guy is a delusional buffoon.

I just outfitted myself with two new Wally style jackets. Now if anyone can find out the precise brand of hair gel he uses, I think I might be set for life.

Good win...this was a good game..The D has some leaks but I won't complain too much..good game by JJ... the tip slam ..the sick up and under move a nd the long J he had..plus the nasty block..
Once more Lebron gets hacked and beat up.. DEEP IN UTAH..

Lebron has been getting less and less calls it seems. I was watching other games where guys get all these little touch fouls going to the basket and LBJ hasn't been getting any calls like that. Even when its been clear that he was slapped across the arm or something like that he hasn't really be getting the calls. I know sometimes he can go through the contact like nothing because he is so big and strong but the refs gotta open their eyes.

It's been really pathetically bad lately. You'd think he was a rookie out there with the lack of calls. To be fully honest...I wonder whether it's because he bitches so much.
