I posted a like thought, in her defense, before the refs fucked up tonight's game.
Seems she gained some fans tonight.
Being an NBA coach is to a good degree about managing the talent, but you can be bad enough at the rest for it to matter. Coach Bud seems a bit like Andy Reid.
Was the tv feed just muted because the “get live muthafucka” part of Who Shot Ya? was playing in the arena? Lol.
Were it a choice, I would watch a completely unedited feed. I want that song plus Melo telling everyone to clear the fck out on rebounds
Doris is generally very good. I think announcing in the bubble with no crowd is probably not so easy. They feed off that energy just like the players do, so it may lead to some moments that feel forced.
Pretending the refs aren't a problem is my least favorite thing about the Port Cellar.
Given the general level of shittiness that pervades Steve javie, nba refs, and espn, how long before burke is compelled to apologize in order to keep javie on the job, and the refs explaining their calls.
Rockets are getting a ton of open threes off penetration, I think this is actually going well for them.
I should be more clear on my post earlier. I love Doris as an announcer. My only gripe with her is that she generally sides with the refs, no matter how horrible the call is. The last minute of tonight's game was an exception to that, and a very good one, IMO. But there were a whole bunch of other calls tonight that were egregious that she didn't do the same. Perhaps I'm biased because I've been listening to Tommy for decades, and he calls it like it is, as does Gorman, but I think Doris is good enough, and has enough cache now that she's doesn't need to carry their water as much as she does.
Win or lose Harden has laid an egg. The fuck is this? He’s shooting horribly and not doing anything in the lane.
Yeah the game threads are like the looters after a peaceful protest discussion on what kind of impact Javonte Green can have. I try to stay clear and be home when the street lights go on.
Harden missing shots is one thing, but his just standing around dribbling the air out of the ball every other possession is so tiresome. He acts like a player holding for a last shot or trying to run clock, only we’re in the third quarter of a tight game.
In a game this tight a spurt of two way play like that can be the difference. He better, given that Harden looks mentally withdrawn from this game.
Harden refusing to take shots or drive the lane and continually passing back to RoCo behind the arc = "making plays." Okay. Looks when he keeps making 'em.
Covington is the series MVP if the Rockets pull this out.
