We could all stand to take ourselves less seriously and just enjoy life like Bill Walton. he's the second worst cbb announcer behind only lowell galindo. his inane, meandering style of speaking over the game which he is completely ignoring is an abomination which thankfully is relegated to late night pac 12 games that nobody watches. he is objectively unfit for/terrible at his job. if people want to celebrate his kookiness and his ability to inanely drone on for hours then he should start a podcast. i megaloathe the rare times when he the color guy for a Texas game.

He was calling a spurs lakers playoff game way back in the day and we’re sitting pretty close to the broadcast table. Good seats obviously. Halftime rolls around and Kobe spent the first half trying to distribute to his teammates and they were missing everything in sight and you could tell he was getting pissed. Walton walks by and I say, “Hey Bill. How many times do you think Kobe passes the ball in the second half?” He looks me dead in the eye in full Walton voice and says, “Not very many” and starts laughing. Halftime is almost finished and he comes back to the table holding one of those Where’s Walton tie dye tshirts. He comes looking for me and hands me one. So great. I love Bill Walton. every good walton story is like this one- it's about an interaction with him away from the announcers table. interesting/nice guy; horrible color commentator.

Wrong the worst announcer is Jeff Van Gundy followed closely by Mark Jackson, Bill Walton doesn't come near them in awfulness

Can't argue with any of this. Walton's comments are tangential, unfocused, biased (toward UCLA/Pac-12) and largely oblivious to the game being played. And, yet, I dunno. I just find my ears hanging on to his commentary to hear what he'll say next while my eyes stay glued to the court to see what happens next. In contrast, Galindo's comments are so forced, so wanna-be hip that I can only give one groan or eyeroll after another. That's a lot of words to say this: Despite his shortcomings and unconventional style, Walton adds something to the TV spectator experience. It is inimitable and it will be missed once he's gone.

If there is commentary I do not enjoy I just turn the volume down, but I have never done that with Walton. Just a human being that genuinely enjoys life. People like that are awesome to be around. My mother is close to Walton’s age and she has that same personality where she just enjoys life and does not really care what anyone thinks. Great way to be.
June 7, 20232 yr Walton is just such an authentic dude. Rode his bike to practice when he played for Portland. You aren't gonna find many dudes like that now. Edited June 7, 20232 yr by Pam Cummings

June 8, 20232 yr If they're waiving CP3 they're almost assuredly dumping Ayton on somebody. Waiving CP clears $14.2M in cap for next season in case anyone was curious. It also takes CP off the team, obviously.

It also takes CP off the team, obviously. They are 1 million under the cap with 6 guys on the roster. They have enough in cal holds to put them over the first apron. They almost have to trade Ayton for 2 guys with short contracts.
June 8, 20232 yr Walton has his place in the basketball world. I would take him over Mark Jackson or whatever Van Gundy needed work at the time.
June 8, 20232 yr I like JVG. Stan cannot retire fast enough for me. No energy, no personality, no chemistry with PBP guy.

They dont even use him a PG for one thing but more importantly, he is the heart of that team. And I say that despite hating the guy and pretty much everything he stands for LOL

No. Just think Boston’s offense is missing a true point guard and why they had to rely more and more on White to play that role. They played some of their best team offense the two weeks smart was out and White took over. Everything else you posted is why he would make a great fit with Booker and KD. just MO

June 9, 20232 yr If Middleton opts out in Milwaukee should Phoenix and Dallas chase him knowing he's on the wrong side of 30 and just had knee surgery?
June 9, 20232 yr Boston needs a veteran leader and Phoenix needs a durable guy. IF you keep CP3 and KD, there's a good chance Booker plays 30 games by himself.
June 9, 20232 yr I have been thinking CP3 for Smart would be a good trade for a while. Boston could use some veteran leadership. And Smart takes way too many end of game shots to be as inefficient as he is. And Phoenix needs perimeter defense and toughness. I think both teams would win more if they made it.
June 9, 20232 yr Phoenix should jump all over a cp3 for smart trade but Boston would be real dumb to do so.
