    Just embrace him. He's one of a kind. An aquired taste.

    "My life changed irrevocably four-and-a-half years ago when my spine failed and collapsed. I spent two years on the floor, in excruciating, debilitating and unrelenting pain. I can only describe the pain as being submerged into a vat of scalding acid that has an electric current running through it. And you can never get out, ever"

    I feel this way about 50% of announcers. Most are just too fake or over the top for me.

    He's the WORST.

    Fukkin awful.

    When he called the game in China a couple weeks ago I literally forgot I was watching a bball game, and thought I was just listening to his dumb fukkin travel stories.

    Stupid PAC-12 homer dumbfukk giant.

    Doesn't know shit about college basketball in the 21st century, can't speak, can't pronounce names let alone English words.

    He and I eat at the same Breakfast place in North Park(San Diego). When he's announcing at the Maui tournament he will tell you something about the history of Hawaii statehood before the co-announcer brings us back to reality. Chic Hearn never thought out of the box like Mr. Walton.

    I guess he is not so bad. When is he announcing next game. I'll bet and like him better if my team is winning.

    Lots of guys defending him here
