    Bill Raftery is the greatest B-Ball announcer on Earth

    There is NOTHING cooler in all of sports announcing than Bill Raftery at the beginning of each game going, "and the ______ start the game MANTOMAN!" Makes my day everytime. True, I'm easy to please, but there is something so awesome about it. Love his game vocab as well, "kiss off the glass," "Lace the nylon," "Scintillating marksmanship," etc makes him one announcer that I have to turn the volume up for.

    Verne Lundquist is a great partner as well. Much better than Dick Vitale's BS hyperactivity or Nantz and Packer S------ off the front runners. The only other good basketball guys are Bill Walton and Kevin "No regard for life or limb" Harlan.

    —Patrick
