Lakers-Bucks Local Announcers

Continuing my procrastination streak...

I thought the Bucks announcers did a decent job avoiding the "homer" tag. The play by play announcer was fair, but the color commentator was a little too biased. Overall they kept themselves in check though. Some interesting notes.

  • When the Lakers were winning, they were very, very fair. 
  • When the Bucks pulled ahead in the 4th quarter, the color commentator started getting out of control. 
  • On the Buck's last shot of the game (a missed Michael Redd runner), one of the announcers yelled 'Michael Reddddd!'. This isn't too bad of an offense actually, it was a very exciting moment.
  • On Kobe's game winning shot, the color commentator yelled out 'MISS IT!'. This isn't that cool. 
  • At one point in the 3rd quarter, they talked to each other about eating cookies. They just decided to stop calling the game and talk about cookies. (Note: Intense cookie talk starts around the 30 second mark)
