Can you name any analyst that knows the rules? If that was the criteria then there would be no TV commentators.

Jimmy Dykes is more analytical but he still says things that are off the wall from time to time. He just does not spend all his time ripping people. He still uses the terms "over the back" and "moving screen." I will admit that he does talk about verticality and gives the officials credit for calling the game.

We have state final officials in a state that borders yours, that I've heard use those terms when reporting fouls to the table. Does that mean they don't know the rules either?
Well, maybe. I cringe when I hear officials say these things. I really do wonder if they know the rules.
