Mike Breen is excellent on the call but that coat Clyde wearing should drop them few spots out of first place.
Mike Breen is seriously overrated IMO ( the “bang” thing is hard to listen to anymore). I’ve never liked Joel Meyers at all, either. I don’t mind Ian Eagle, he’s pretty good. I definitely agree with Fitzgerald being at or near the bottom of the list. I’ve always found him to be dreadful.
Honestly, I don’t see anyone on that list noticeably better than Mark Jones, but maybe that’s just me. And while Kayte isn’t my cup of tea, she is definitely better than a lot of the analysts on that list.
If I owned the KINGS, I’d do whatever it took to get Gus Johnson to be my pbp guy. He and Kevin Harlan are my favorites. They infuse an unmatched level of excitement.

Kate Scott is pbp for the 76ers?
I remember her as a producer on the Gary Radnich show. Yikes…at 29 I’m guessing she let too much Bob Fitzgerald rub off on her at KNBR.
Fitz is appropriately ranked. He was already bad but the last several years of defending everything Draymond Green like Green is his only child tanked him even more.
My league pass days ended probably close to 20 years ago so I’m actually not familiar with a lot of the names.
I recognize Rathbun, Breen, Reid, Fitz, Blaha
and Gorman from those days. Gorman is retiring
There was Matt Pinto, Ralph Lawler, Hot Rod Hundley, Paul Sunderland(after Chick Hearn). Guess most of those guys are retired now
I like Collins for Charlotte the best. Can’t wait for him to get a good team to call
