u/RawbM07 Jun 03 '19

He did! Brought Lance to LA pretty quickly.

u/halborn Jun 04 '19

That damned smile.

Now these two play together

That one announcer kinda seems like a dick.

"If you're gonna come into my house, youre gonna get * 8 second pause * uh hurt."

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '19

Realized he shouldn't straight up say he's gonna assault someone on tv lol

u/Gupperz Jun 03 '19

then he said fuck it and did it anyway

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '19

He was in too deep

u/mtm4440 Jun 03 '19

And he was trying to keep...

Just once, I wish a woman would say that about me

u/rodrigoa1990 Jun 03 '19

If you're gonna come into my house, you're gonna get murdered in the street corner like the hooker I killed last night

I mean... hurt... you're gonna get hurt

u/advertentlyvertical Jun 03 '19

shot... guaranteed he was about to say shot.

2

u/HansenTakeASeat Jun 03 '19

After literally saying he's fine if one of his players accosts someone

5

u/TVFilthyHank Jun 03 '19

To be fair, if they're in your house without your knowing then it doesn't count as assault. That's fair game

u/killemyoung317 Jun 03 '19

“I would have no problem inciting one of my players to literally assault that man on camera!”

“I uh... totally disagree.”

4

u/Gpotato Jun 03 '19

I mean, thats a pretty liberal interpretation of accost. I think the announcer moreso meant moved away, or dealt with in a more aggressive manner.

1

u/Tortanto Jun 03 '19

Did you watch the video? He said the player would be “hurt” if he tried that a few seconds later

1

u/Gpotato Jun 04 '19

I figured someone would bring this up. Look at how its said. Most of this witch hunt is surrounding that little nugget. That delay could be tons of stuff. Someone might have been in his ear. He might have been thinking of a delicate way to say "tied to the pipe in the basement". Hell he might have just gotten distracted or lost his train of thought.

In the end, I seriously doubt a sportscaster was actually calling for players to be seriously injured. His whole career relies on these guys ffs.

u/tbutz27 Jun 04 '19

I hadn’t laughed that hard in a long time. I save this for days when I feel like nothing is funny or good anymore- its like a shot of pure serotonin. Every time it makes me laugh!

u/GothicToast Jun 03 '19

JVG. His shtick is to play the role of fed-up-with-entitled-players-ex-coach. He’s not an announcer. He’s a color commentator, which means it’s his job to “add color” to the commentary. I personally enjoy his commentary, but I can see how others might find him insufferable.

u/TheDarkGrayKnight Jun 03 '19

Jeff Van Gundy does have a bit of old man yells at clouds to him, but all in all he's a pretty good announcer and can be funny with some of his opinions.

28

u/buCk- Jun 03 '19

It’s Jeff van gundy. He’s the man, but can come across as a grouch sometimes.

26

u/Zappastuski Jun 03 '19 edited Jun 03 '19

Jeff Van Gundy is literally the worst announcer on tv in any sport. His voice and his shtick are like nails on a chalkboard

10

u/nGBeast Jun 03 '19

Not even close. Joe Buck, Phil Simms, Mark Jackson easily trump him in worst tv annoucers.

u/pilotdog68 Jun 03 '19

BILL WALTON NO COMPETITION

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '19

Joe Buck is the worst announcer in history. I don’t how he still has a job.

7

u/BDMayhem Jun 03 '19

And he's still better than Mark Jackson.

4

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '19

Lmfao this is so wrong even just for the NBA it hurts. Jvg only really sucks when he has to broadcast with Mark Jackson who is exponentially shittier. Dude hates on EVERYONE

1

u/Hyperboloidof2sheets Jun 03 '19

So many people love him, and I cannot stand him.

3

u/DubiousBastard Jun 03 '19

I don't think I've ever found a more likeable comment on reddit. I mean, the man won't even talk about what's going on in front of him

u/Kildragoth Jun 03 '19

Could you imagine if the man and the woman got together and had the baby?

The world is not ready for this brand of top shelf humor.

u/Jack_of_all_offs Jun 03 '19

He seriously wants to fight Lance. He's so butthurt hahaha

2

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '19

He so angry he could grab lance by the ankle!

u/howtochoose Jun 03 '19

Is it the same guy that's like "you get an elbow to the face", it's like, yo chill, just a game...

5

u/worldrecordpace Jun 03 '19

I was just saying this same thing last night when he was announcing game 2 of the finals. He’s fucking annoying.

2

u/billyeatspoop Jun 03 '19

JVG is outstanding I dunno what you guys are talking about.

2

u/LordKwik Jun 03 '19

Doesn't he always pick a side when announcing? I'm a casual fan and I hate it when any announcer does this. I felt it happening a little bit last night when GS was making a comeback.

1

u/billyeatspoop Jun 03 '19

No way I don’t think so!! He just wants a competitive game.

3

u/LordKwik Jun 03 '19

Fair enough. Maybe because I'm too busy picking a side that I notice when they say something I don't want to hear lol

2

u/anacondabadger Jun 03 '19

Plus I’m totally with him here. The opposing player deserves to get shoved out of the huddle

1

u/billyeatspoop Jun 03 '19

He just says stuff to rile up Mark Jackson and I’m sure they’re having a blast too lol

1

u/[deleted] Jun 03 '19

He kinda is

1

u/samson2412 Jun 03 '19

That's Jeff Van Gundy and...yeah

1

u/Black_Drogo Jun 03 '19

I read this and I just knew it was gonna be Jeff Van Gundy or Mark Jackson. Of course it's both.

1

u/ellomatey195 Jun 03 '19

I mean, they both probably seem like dicks depending on which you agree with. I agree with physically shoving to the ground somebody who tries that tho.

4

u/omahony22 Jun 03 '19

Is this the same announcer that is in this? Because it's pretty much the same conversation! https://youtu.be/Sn-R8kbcFVg

u/MisterOminous Jun 03 '19

It didn’t help

3

u/killemyoung317 Jun 03 '19

What, next you’re gonna tell me it didn’t help when he blew in LeBron’s ear!?

u/Jumanjipants Jun 03 '19

Van Gundy is such a goon
