You won't hear this from a basketball announcer
 
Watching a Penguins - Caps playoff game and the announcer said, "The Penguin defensemen are pinching intelligently today." I know what it means, but it just sounded funny. :)

BTW - hockey is great. I think we should allow checking in basketball.

Didn't they call a blocked shot a checked shot in the old days? So there is checking.:rolleyes:

things you won't hear from a HOCKEY announcer....
 
"Kobe was clearly dribbling when the defender put his hands on him."

"When Lebron goes right to the hole, he'll hit it every time."

i was watching a hockey playoff game and the color guy says something like this- "this power play will be like a laxative for their constipated play"

Walk the bridges,
watch out for the cobblestone streets,
drink the Pilsner Urquell, and
enjoy the beautiful sites!

Just my $.02
