And who cares if announcers root against the Cavs?
Shouldn't bother you. Who cares what other commentators think.
God forbid an announcer suggest the Cavs might of got away with a foul
cause you know fouls are definitive and not subject to interpretation.
The problem is people think they have to agree with everything an announcer says for it to be good announcing.
Hubie at 82 is by far higher quality color commentary than the majority of guys on TV
No one will ever touch Bill Walton. He's great. Not because of his commentary of basketball. Because of his commentary on anything.
I wish he'd come back and do NBA games.
Its not his job to be impartial. it his job to provide commentary in between play by play and add to the entertainment of the game.. that's what he does.I care. It aggravates my NE Ohio persecution complex.
And it makes watching games a lot less enjoyable. Even when I know the outcome.
Besides - it's his JOB to be impartial. He's not doing his JOB. For which he gets paid a ton of money.

He isn't campaigning for people to hate the Cavs.
Could have fooled me.
BTW: I just re-watched a bunch of highlights from last night, and ESPN had a 49-second clip of the Teague forearm shiver. Hubie didn't say a thing. Not a god-damned thing for the whole 49 seconds. The only guy you hear is Tirico. Not a basketball play. Does Hubie give a fuck? No. Hubie does not give a fuck. It does not fit his narrative. Yet, he likes to call out contact, when it is from the Cavs. David's right - the dude has become unbearable.
Why would Hubie Brown be biased against the Cavaliers?
I don't think he's biased against the Cavs. I do think he's not a big fan of LeBron, for some reason, and he's losing more of his filter as he gets older. I remember him making some head-scratching comments during Heat games when LeBron was there.
For whom though? Because the only entertainment I get from his broadcasts is the imperturbable silence after the Cavs shut him the fuck up.it his job to provide commentary in between play by play and add to the entertainment of the game
