I swear this guy is the biggest shill in the whole world. Man this year is horrible so close to the tank. Then I have to listen to this idiot pumping up Hayward. Then being critical of every Kanter or Burks mistake. Just to hear him have organisms on every play where the Jazz score. I feel like my ears are bleeding.

You mean orgasms? But yeah I agree, Locke is an *** clown.
 
I've said this many-a-time. David Locke is that kid in high school that tries so hard to be cool and hang with the cool kids, but by doing so, makes himself look like a complete toolbag. Plus, dude wasn't given the god-given pipes to be a play-by-play guy. That's just the truth.

Locke = good for radio but ****ing terrible for play-by-play.
 
interesting. do you guys think the fact that hayward and locke share the same skin tone has anything to do with this? i'm no saying it is, just asking.

Serious! Nobody deserves banning more than this guy!!!
 
Locke is a dork and he's wrong plenty, but most fanbases don't have an analyst that churns out anywhere near the content with access that he has. Even with how often he's not right, I think the diligence he shows makes his content at least compelling and thought-provoking.

You speak truth in its purest form....
 
I listen to most of his tip offs....

Crazy how much he hates on Burks when Burks was his dude coming out of the draft...


Also Matt repeats a lot of what Locke says!!!

Well he's not always right I suppose, and he has his biases (as do we all) but whether he's wrong plenty is a matter of opinion. At least he (for the most part) tries to ground his opinions in some objective statistics. I listen to his podcast most days, and I find him to be quite insightful on a number of issues, and it's clear that he has inside information on a number of things, and understand aspects of the on-court game and behind the scenes issues much more so than the average fan that incline me toward trusting his opinions far more than the opinions of anyone at Jazzfanz.

Locke goes far beyond what many other play-by-play announcers do in terms of providing content for fans and opportunities to participate in forums. In my opinion, we are damn lucky to have him. While I don't agree with everything he says, and sometimes he can be condescending, if agreeing with everything someone says and does is the standard for liking someone, then just who is hell would we ever like?
 
Anyone else hear David Locke say Trey Burke got hit in his... something you should wrap up and give your wife for Christmas? Really ****ing awkward.
