Anyone watch Najera vs. the Thunder?

The thunder play by play guy and color analyst were both saying eduardo should have been ejected. I can't stand either guy and when i watch another thunder game, I will be muting the tv. The thunder announcers are too bias and it is annoying.

I'm not saying that they AREN'T biased, but I must tell you that is just what team specific professional sports announcers do. Try listening to a team specific NFL radio broadcast. Here's a sample:

Play-by-play guy: "And he breaks into the open field! He's to the 50, the 40, the 30..."

Color guy (in the background you hear him screaming at the top of his lungs): "GO! GO! GO! GO! GO!"

Play-by-play guy:"...to the end zone, touchdown!"

Color guy: "That's what I'm talking about baby!!! Whooooo!!!"

dude, its a thunder broadcast, not a national game. they do a superb job.
 
The Thunder announcers are calling games for the Thunder. I think they do a good job. The first call on Najera wasn't that bad. It's just when he started pulling on jerseys that made me wonder when Ed started playing like this. Looks like to me Ed is pretty slow of foot these days and is trying to increase his career in the NBA as long as he can. But this is the wrong way. BOOMER SOONER BABY!!!
 
The majority of NBA broadcasters are biased, it's part of the job. I happen to think the Thunder have two guys that are pretty fair.

As for Najera, he took it a little too far but nothing to be ejected about. That's one of the big problems with today's NBA game. They don't let teams play enough. Too many damn whistles tailored towards high scoring games.

BT, you need to let your hate for the Thunder go. YOu have never given them a shot b/c you are afraid of how they affect ou bball and b/c their star player is a horn.

Stop cheering for a texas team when we have our own team here

Oh, and the announcers are very good
 
Those fouls by Najera were pretty flagrant. He wasn't going for the ball he was just slapping people. However he shouldn't have been thrown out of the game.

As far as the Thunder announcers I like listening to Matt Pinto on the radio more than the TV guys.
 
I like Pinto I just wish he wouldn't say "Thunder money ball!" every friggin time they make a 3 pointer. That is painful to listen to.

Don't forget King Freckles. He is right there with Durant (I refuse to call him "KD") in my eyes.

Honestly, it would probably take them getting an OU guy for me to start liking them more. I have always been a Mavs fan, and like the Clippers for obvious reasons. :)

Everyone has their annoying calls. Even Gus Johnson, I still like him.
 
Don't get me started on Gus Johnson. Let's just say I'm not as enthralled with him as some of you guys are.

Pinto is the Thunder's play by play guy?

Well, he was the Mavericks' play by play guy about 7 years ago and "Mavericks Money Ball" was also used. It is just one of his sayings.
 
I personally think Pinto does an amazing job running a one-man show on the radio.

152219, Brian Davis is the TV play-by-play guy and Grant Long does color. Pinto does the radio call for WWLS.
 
You must prefer the Joe Buck type announcers. ;)

Give me Emrick or Johnson anyday in any sport.

And Pinto is really good on the radio, not too fond of the TV guys though.
