R.I.P. The way he called 3 pointers and dunks was... well, see for yourself... I love it at the 6:15 mark: 'Stockton Computers at your service'!

Man. The 90s really seemed like something else. Not sure if the NBA will ever be like that again. So many characters.
 
My brother and I watched game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals at 3 in the morning in Madrid Spain. We were amazed at this announcer. He called Peja Stojakovic American Grafitti. He hollered ARAKATAKATAKATAK anytime someone loosed a three. At arbitrary junctures he would exclaim AYE LUB DIS GAYME. It was an incredible amplification to the epic game.

And then after the game the channel broadcasted a porno.

I miss Spain.

Haha yeah man, not to mention the multiple nicknames he gave every player:

Steve Kerr - Wyatt Earp
Dennis Rodman - Cruella DeVille
'Robin Hood' Nowitzki
Tim '21st Century' Duncan
Computers Stockton at your service
'Why are you so good' McGrady
Jordan Airlines, Flight 23
'That rare element' Robert Horry
Rodolfo Valentino - Pat Riley (with his mafia member look)
A 3pt made = Triiiiiiiiiiiple!
A cluctch basket = Ra ta ta ta ta ta (simulating a machinegun)
A clutch 3 = Ratatatatatata (faster)
An awesome dunk = Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr (simulates helicopter)

And his favorite phrase, 'because life can be wonderful'
I bet it's wonderful wherever you're calling games now Andres.
