This commentator needs to relax

I hate the commentator so much.

I find her very entertaining and fun.

I can't really stand it. Outright barracking for us and trying to act as if this near 40 point blowout is exciting.

Kind of her job, no?

Exactly.  There were good enough.  Gave some good info on the players.

Begarin has 7 assists.

He knows how to play.

Someone did a fantastic job coaching him up to this point. You can tell.

Came from the same youth program as Tony Parker and Boris Diaw IIRC. It shows.

You have a real PG but ball hog Tatum insisted on bringing up the ball. Total BS.

Didn't realise Tatum was the coach last season

Your coach was weak BS. Read the post.

You say "Tatum insisted on bringing up the ball." Any proof?

Give it a rest ….we all saw what happened last season..how wouldn’t even pass to Pritchard. Some even argued he was been trained to handle the ball.

Unless you have some audio, video or written quote proving your claim that Tatum insisted on taking the ball up and did so against his coach's wishes aand got away with it because the coach is a mentally weak coach.....then you're just making crap up and spitting it out every chance you get.

I think we can all agree that Tatum should not bring the ball up next season. It delayed our sets and hurt the ball movement.

I like Bruno. He’s strong and agile,Has good size and he can play the 4/5. I hope the C’s keep him. Has some upside.

Like him too.  He strikes me as a 5 only.

He’s quick laterally, much more athletic than Grant Williams. If Grant can Guard some 4’s, Bruno definitely can.

Hope so.

There is chemistry between him and PP

It was a figure of speech..remind me to take everything and every word you post literally. Thanks.

Help me here because I am for real confused. What part of what you said is a figure of speech because I honestly didn't see one, hence my response?

‘Tatum insisted on bringing up the ball’…….hyperbole!….I even included a twist at the end with ‘Total BS’ a double entendre that could stand for Brad Stevens or something more colorful. I hope that helps.

Not really, given I've never heard a commentator behave like this before besides the dreadful NBATV guys

They were both awful. Beth Mowins has the annoying habit peculiar to some women broadcasters - the need to yell into the mic instead of using a normal tone, Doris Burke being the all-time worst abrasive voice. I had the game on mute.

I agree. Where I disagree is that Tatum insisted on doing it against his coach's wishes. If Tatum was doing something last year it's because he was told to do it.

Just look at last year's 2nd game for some proof. End of game, Stevens coaching was to just get the ball to Jayson and let him create a shot. Stevens admitted this post game. So, though it looked like Tatum was being selfish and being lazy, taking a step back three without even looking to pass, that is what the coach said to do during the timeout.

New coach. New system. New approach. We will see who brings the ball up, not that it matters. Last year this team brought the ball up slowly and slowly got into their sets. Tatum wasn't the only one. The issue isn't who brings up the ball, it's about how it is done.

If the ball is dribbled up quickly or passed up court quickly, and the team starts their sets with more time on the clock, I could not care less who brings up the ball. Just bring it up faster and get your plays going faster

Did not read it that way at all.

Amen to that.

Did Stevens have something against Pritchard ? Or was it just against anyone resembling a more traditional style point guard ?

I find her very entertaining and fun.

I found the crew a refreshing change but as the game really got lopsided they tried a bit too hard to drum up enthusiasm

I had no problem with the crew. It was an amazing display of passing and shooting. The SL announcers have been much better this year than in the past and anything would be better than Scal this summer.

PP is a really solid point guard.

Renee Montgomery should go to ESPN4 and be a commentator on street ball.  I didn't like anything about her.
