FWIW, this is the 1st time I've ever bet against the Cavs. I took the Nets +16.

^I probably would have done the same.
Most of the Nets losses are close and you rarely see a 16 point win the NBA.

Chris Quinn sighting for the Nets. Dublin Coffman's own. Watched him for 3 years destroy my high school.

Here is a spot where I disagree with Mike Brown. You sit LeBron and pick up the defensive intensity and it gets you the lead. So why wouldn't you bring LeBron back in at the 8 minute mark after NJ just put the Cavs in the bonus and have him attack the hoop? I wouldn't even wait--as soon as they were in the bonus he would have gone back in and attacked, you could seriously end the game here in the 2nd quarter.

It's Fred and AC. If they weren't over the top, something would be wrong.

I've heard worse than AC--the guy at least knows the game. He gets annoying sometimes but I'd rather listen to him and Fred than Jeff Van Gundy on TNT. He's worse, much worse. But I've watched many other regional broadcasts and almost every one of them sucks--they're piad to be homers and worship anything the team does. Hell, if they were sleeping, I just woke my neighbors up when Andy threw down LeBron's oop. I got excited, those guys are supposed to display that to thousands of people who are watching and listening to the game. I'm not trying to be a dick, I totally get what you're saying but you realize that is what they're paid to do right?

This isnt a radio broadcast though?(or are these guys on radio too?) Im aware theyre supposed to tell people whats going on and that theyre cleveland homers like theyre supposed to be...but jesus these guys are way over the top haha. And yes I agree id rather listen to these 2 then Vangundy and Reggie Miller

No, it's TV--but that's how it is all around the league. How many times on Sportscenter do they play a highlight and let the regional commentators line play--every time they're shouting like a crazy person.

The Grizzlies' announcers are MUCH MUCH worse than Fred and AC. Watching the Lakers/Grizz game the other night online, I had to watch it on mute. They weren't even that homerish, it was just they were that AGAINST the Lakers. Everything that Kobe or anyone for that matter did, they had a negative comment.

On game winners I remember people screaming like that, I dont really remember about just normal plays when they cut the announcers in
