was he high?:wtf:
[QUOTE=Posterize246]i hate the hornets pa guy and everytime he puts on the ric flair "woooooo!!!!"...he does it after a guy makes a free throw![/QUOTE]
The PA guy does not play the sounds....that's done by game operations.
Most annoying PA guys though (in no particular order):
- San Antonio...this guy has no voice for the job yet he's been there for years
- The guy for the Miamiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat!
- NJ guy and his stupid little phrases (Did you see - VC????)

I only watch Detroit's games when they play the Lakers. For some reason this came into my mind earlier today, Deeeeetroooiit Baskeeetbaaaaaall. Actually thats the thing he does well. But I guess hearing it few times per game, atleast 41 times a season can be annoying..

:confusedshrug:
Dude was fired over the summer and since preseason the Spurs have had a new PA announcer.
Hell, I posted a thread over a month about the it:

^ both are the same person
So the Spurs guy is gone? Wow. I need to watch a Spurs game and give the new guy a listen. I'll replace him on my list then with the Orlando Magic's PA guy.
Pistons is awesome! Bit i'll admit it can get a bit grating after a while.
1.Lakers
2.Raptors (i'm a fan just gets on my nerves the abreviations of everyones name.)
3.Celtics
4.New Orleans
5.New Jersey/Knicks
Ok, seriously, whether I'm at a game, or watching t.v. I almost never hear these guys. Totally tune them out. Is it really a big deal?
I'm more pissed about the t.v. announcers. Cleveland has the WORST group of announcers.

Celtics announcers, one of them is biased as ****, the other guy doesnt seem that way but is scared ****less to protest against his partners annoying asse rants.

I was watching them online last week vs. Milwaukee, and the only available feed was in French. Honestly, that was better than listening to Austin Carr ramble like he's known for.
[QUOTE=AbulHassan]The Lakers announcers are the absolute worst and its not even close. They obsess over every little thing Kobe does and practically worship him... now Kobe's my fav player in the league but damn .. those guys are flaming ****[/QUOTE]
OMG I frigging know. They are the worst possible homers. Here is an example of what a normal announcer would do if a player made an alley oop pass. "Wow what a pass". Here is what the Lakers announcers do if Kobe makes that same pass. "Kobe Bryant with an amazing pass that shattered the rules of logic in half".
Hornets announcer takes the cake.
"CP3! woo! woo! woo!"
LOL terrible just terrible. A barely above average dunk (it was good, but come on get real) turned legendary, not because of the style but because of the idiot calling it (of course I mean this gets into the top 5 dumbest sports annuncers ever).

He's easy to imitate though. You just harden up your face and use your lips as little as possible when you pronounce words.

Again...the woo woo is NOT the PA guy. It's a recording played by the game operations staff. It's actually a recording of Ric Flair.

I wish I could.
[QUOTE=Myth]Detroit is far and away the worst.
Cleveland's is pretty bad. I don't like the Hornet's guy either.[/QUOTE]
I'm from New Orleans and I absolutely HATE the Hornets' PA's they are both horrible especially Gil McGregor. He has to be the worst play-by-play guy of all times!!!!
Jordy Holtberg is a piece of **** too!

PA = [B]P[/B]ublic [B]A[/B]ddress announcer (the announcer in the arena)
Gil is a television color analyst
I don't really like the Clippers announcer... maybe because I have to listen to him so much...
"BIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNGO!!!".....
oh my bad I guess he isn't a PA, but a TV commentator.

lovin big kev so far. he's still getting adjusted though i think, but he's got a good voice for the gig and a fun personality.
and i do have a nostalgic soft spot for stan kelly as i've been going to spurs games for so long, but i more than understand it was time to move on - as the overwhelmingly unanimous responses in this thread indicate. :oldlol:
I hate the Miami guy personally. How he is always like: TWO MINUTES... DOS! It's like I don't mind if you going to use spanish that is fine with me, but this is the only time during the entire game they do it, so its just lame.
Also while not an announcer thing, any arena that plays that 'clap clap your hands' bull**** over and over again is annoying. (also applies to Miami)
The guy in Charlotte is absolutely terrible. "Let's Go Cats!" Shouted at the most inappropriate times and completely off beat to the drum sounds that are supposed to guide the fans in the cheer.
I'd like to hear that WOO recording after the free throws.
And I agree with Bigkingsfan about the Orlando PA guy. I also like the Miami one, especially when Wade scores.
warriors are pretty gay
The PA guy for the Celtics has moved up a few spots on my most annoying list recently. I guess because there are so many Celtics games on TV. Most annoying (in no particular order) in my book are:
Miami (DOS!)
Orlando
Boston
Dallas (Twooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhots)
NJ (did you see........VC????)
