I hate Locke

I don't mind Locke. You can see that he truly loves what he does and how dedicated he is.

You would too if you got paid tons of money to do something you had no clue about and you knew those millions would keep rolling in no matter how much you sucked.
 
I really can not explain why I hate him, but i just hate him.

Is ist....

-his attentive styled hair ?
-his ***-licking behaviour infront of authority ?
-his "homerism-like" comments on Gordon Hayward ?
-his "fake" smile ?
-...........
-............
-............
etc.

I really do not know, which of them it is, but I hate him. Locke If you are reading this now, Im not hating on you, but I hate you !!!
 
Everyone gets better with practice.

I love Locke, Boler is wearing on me, Harpring is pretty fun at times. I understand they have weaknesses, but until you can get a perfect being to do play by play, humans with flaws will have to do.

(The whole 'see what i have to put up with' thing from Boler is annoying. Boler..... Harpring is the best thing that ever professionally happened to you)
 
I think we (I at least) got spoiled with Hot Rod. Fantastic play by play and knew the game very very well. Boone was a good complement. He was very basketball knowledgeable, even though he had a hard time putting together a sentence.
 
Maybe Im the only one, but I just hate this guy...

Really? What do you hate about him? I think he's a good dude. He is rather idiosyncratic, but aren't we all in some capacity. Plus, he has done a lot for Jazzfanz, much more than Hotrod would ever have done for Jazzfanz.
 
I don't hate any of the broadcasters.... some of the things they say though are really really stupid sounding, but what makes it worse is they keep saying them. When you come up with something you think is clever and people tell you it is stupid... just stop.

No more cookie jar references.
No more slamming down 3 pointers.
Absolutely no more telling stories when there is game action going on, about the only thing that makes me want to punch the announcer in the face and I'm a pacifist.

I'm sure there are more, but I'm too lazy to think back.
 
You would too if you got paid tons of money to do something you had no clue about and you knew those millions would keep rolling in no matter how much you sucked.

Not quite fair, bro. Locke knows enough to have a clue haha. I think he knows enough to be credible and has some nice insights.
 
I like Locke a lot for his tip-offs/website. I don't listen to the radio because I still have hair on my head, so I don't know about his announcing.
 
Locke could be a good guy to talk about basketball if he weren't working for the jazz. Maybe not
 
Nobody works harder than Locke. I really appreciate the effort he puts in. His play by play is bad. Can't help but think he'd do better as a color analyst. I actually like Harp and Boller. They're nerds, but they're our nerds .
 
I like boler and harpring.
Bolers voice is made for announcing and the two of them together goofin off entertains me

Yea, their goofing around annoys a few people, but I find it entertaining and refreshing....afterall, its basketball not life or death. That being said, Bolerjack would be well served if he knew more about basketball.

Fast forward to opening night......
Boler: Durant drives to the lane, and is grabbed from behind by Enes. And the official throws a flag.
Harpring: yea, the ref blew the whistle on that foul by Kanter.
Boler: I think they are going to give the Thunder 15 yards for a horse collar....
Harping: No, its just a two shot foul. It was a good foul by Enes after durrant got past Hayward.
Boler: Hayward needs to get up on his man at the three point line of scrimage, maybe bump him off his route so his timing is off.
