Man, those were good times. I'd tune in regardless of who was playing just because of those two and Walton's wild tangents and comments.

The thing is announcers are part of the organization, they get championship rings too. In a sense saying "we" makes complete sense.

It's incredibly obnoxious to hear though.
Announcers should announce the game, not have an obvious bias towards one team. The SA announcers say stupid things like "Yup, and as we bring the ball down the court." It just sounds dumb.
Edit: I also dont believe the announcers get rings. I do remember it seemed like everyone who worked for the Lakers got a ring, but I dont remember the announcers getting them. Also, I may be wrong about this but arent the announcers a part of the cable company and not the specific organization?

Give them a break, they've been garbage. Let them have their fun. You wanna talk about homers though? Bob Fitzgerald epitomizes that!

Not as bad as Portland, SA or Boston. The Portland announcers think every single call against the Blazers is some sort of insult to their mothers.

I remember Dallas announcers kept calling Lamar Mr. Kardashian last year. Look at them now.

Portland, san antonio, boston, and chicago=top 4 biggest homer announcers in the NBA
lawler is cool. Mike smith is whackkkk though. He went on earlier in this game about how he and durant are "such good friends" he does that with every superstar that comes into staples. He also has some grand praise for every superstar that they play in staples. It's as if he's never seen them before.
The Lakers announcers aren't necessarily homers, they are just flat out bad.

Dunno if they have the same announcers still but the Bucks had some vindicative announcers. I don't mind homers but most of them do give other teams and players props during the game.
RIP Chick. He used to call it evenly for both teams.

Ralph and the Redhead probably was my favorite announcing duo of all time. And, please, the Clippers are no more biased than most regional announcing crews and are a lot less biased than some. And what do you really expect with this game? They've pretty much owned the Thunder and have had some ridiculous highlights. Of course they're going to sound excited.

Announcers get rings because they are chosen by the team son.

Dude's been saying this as far back as I can remember since I started following the NBA. For me, hands down the most annoying thing any commentator says.
