Had Trevor made that I would have woken my wife from her nap!  She would have been pissed.  Probably for the better.

Two fouls on Rivers...need that dude to stay out of foul trouble.

And other things we thought we'd never say.

Who are these amateur announcers on BTN2GO?  I'm sick of hearing "absolutely" after every made basket.  Also, did you know Petteway is trying to beat Shavon for "all-time leading scorer of the game"?

They're students. That's how BTN Plus makes money. Free labor.

I've enjoyed myself so far.

 

How's the couch holding up?

yeah it started right at the tip for me.  I think Petteway is trying to do way too much.  He has a good cast around him.  He doesnt have to be "the man".

I subscribe to BTN + and I have no issues for the most part, It may freeze from time to time and video quality is not great at times but it is serviceable.

man these guys are brutal on the call

They are students most of the time.

Ha! I said to my wife at one point, this just sounds like a couple kids in a dorm room who turned the regular broadcast down and gave it a go.  Turns out I hit that one right on the head.

I just watched the game on BTN and thought the student Announcers (Hunter Cave, pbp & Michael Dixon, analyst, both from UNL) did a very credible job. While not mistake-free, their coverage was good; they were on top of the game and the interactions between Miles, players & officials. Running commentary was smooth and informative without any awkward pauses, showing good knowledge about both teams. They obviously had done their homework. IMHO, not your dorm-quality improv.  If you have it on DVR you may want to watch it again.

Good Job, boys!
