PA announcer

The three point play thing is tired as can be and has mercifully stopped.

Let it be known that on this day the year of our Lord 2015 at 5:43 pm I agree with gostangs

[ClassOf81]

I think the guy is solid. Not over the top, not too low-key. Just right for Moody.

Totally agree.

our guy is perfect. Absolutely does not need to be tweaked.

Absolutely right.

PA guy is good, but I wish we could get him to do the thing Bill Melton used to do on a three:

"Shake Milton has just scored ... A. THREE. POINT. PLAY."

The crowd can join in and yell it with him (the band still does it anyway after every made 3, regardless of the formulation the PA guys uses) if anyone wants to join in.

For the love of Erick Longino ... no. That was repetitive and tired by about halftime of the second game of the year. That was Melton's schtick, but he left SMU years ago, and thankfully took that with him.

I do believe humble billy is available these days

[ClassOf81]

With good reason. Like the rest of the NBA announcers, he's awful.
Our guy is really good.

That was tired the very first time he did it...

Don't love him. He is determined he's going to name the player and number of fouls shots no matter if the player is already in his shot rhythm or not. Keith Frazier shooting two free throws. Geez.

And can't you be cooler than "XXX for a three point field goal?" Like maybe "KEEEETH for a three" or "Ben for the deuce". We know its a field goal for gosh sakes.

Nope, I'm not a huge fan. Too proper. Too stiff. Too "my parents" PA guy.

Okay. I was being nice. I agree with this.

I don't want over the top or anything, but no need to give the entire name and number of our own players. And when he says "field goal," my 8 year old always says "this is not football."

So do you object to calculating the field goal percentage (FG%)? It's a field goal.

[smusic 00]

Just sayin.

I'm curious if anyone under the age of 40 thinks the PA guy is good/perfect?

I'm 27 and agree with the majority sentiment here. He's the perfect balance - hype when it's necessary but not overbearing. He has sort of a WWE announcers voice but keeps most of his comments trite/short so it's not annoying.

My only comment would be that I'd like to see him bring a bit more hype during the player introductions.

That would come naturally if the video wasn't such a buzzkill.

[Terry Webster]

Before you complain come and listen to the guy for Cinci. He is horrid.

[gostangs]

RGV - I can die a complete man now. Can't believe you haven't agreed with me before, since i am always right.

I'm curious if anyone under the age of 40 thinks the PA guy is good/perfect?

I'm a student and I think he's great. He's good at matching the energy when Moody starts getting wild.

[smusic 00]

37 and I think he does a fine job.

[ebrooks11]

I'm also 37 and I also think he's done a fine job.
