They're great because they are the only non-partisan announcers in the league (and the mop up crew at Raptors NBATV). Their job is to sell basketball + the Raptors not make insane comparisons like Andrew Bogut to Kareem Abdul Jabbar (I heard it on a Milwaukee telecast, no lie).
LanierFan combined with the commentary from the Canucks had me thinking last night. Chauncey had 10 assists in like 21 minutes. Another double double.
And the bit on the vid about how good he is, I mean, watching that, I took it all for granted. It made me realize how spoiled we are, that we are treated to such a high level of basketball intelligence and execution on a nightly basis, that fans in other sites are astonished and amazed by the quality of our players.
It's all exhibition games from here on out, so everyone better be prepared to see lots of bench, and several losses. Rip said in the post game locker room interview that they don't care about establishing a Pistons regular season win record. All they wanted was HCA.
Their minds are already on the playoffs.
