  • The warriors announcers are the absolute worst. Since I stream all the games I watch, I get the away feed quite often. Last night, I watched the Timberwolves play the Pelicans on the New Orleans feed.

    I was pleasantly surprised. Their announcers hardly showed any home team bias. They seemed to be calling everything like it was, good or bad, for whichever team. The Timberwolves announcers do this as well.

    However, I watched the Timberwolves play in Golden State twice last week, their announcers each game. Absolutely insufferable. Everything the warriors did was great, everything the wolves did should have been called a foul. The bias was so bad I had to mute it.

    For the record, the Minnesota Vikings radio announcer Paul Allen is way too strong of a homer. He calls things reasonably fairly, and will admit when whichever team does something good or bad. But he celebrates the most minor things the Vikings do too hard. He adds additional praise when minor praise would do. He is too excited at any given moment and it makes him look like a total homer. I can’t listen to him.
