    Nah, if people were worried about Rice not being PC.....Kaman is NOT your man. Says whats on his mind, which isn't always a good thing in TV. He IS very smart thought. Well spoken, just don't think he'd want to do it.

    Steve Smith would be pretty damn good. Greg Anthony maybe. I've heard Alla Abdelnabay, well spoken. Juwan Howard, but he is coaching.
    Steve Kerr would do OK!

    I think Jamal Crawford would be good at it but he's still playing

    If they're going to seasoned pros with experience.....Brent Barry would be my first choice..he was a Beaver at least

    Steve's too quiet I think. Warrior on the court, but real chill off it.

    Jamal is very smart and well spoken.... he will do TV after retirement I'm sure.

    Abdelnabay would be awesome. "The only way I could get 5 A's at Duke was to spell my name"

    Steve Smith on the broadcast for summer league today. Don't think he's going to be the guy, but I look forward to hearing his call today.

    I'm with MM on this one...Steve Smith sounds like a guy who seriously needs some B vitamins
