    No need to hate on them. I'll just tune them out.

    I watched a ton of Mike and Mike last time we sucked. I watch the opponent stream now.

    Cuz his takes are pointless and his anecdotes are cringeworthy. He takes away from Lamar/Kevin more than he does enhance the product.

    For those expecting anything other than a silver lining from broadcasting is funny.
    Do some of you expect them to say, “yeah, the team sucks tonight and has been stinking it up all year?”

    They are selling a product.
    I think negative people enjoy hearing negative things….it justifies their behavior, opinion and stance…
    But yall crazy if you think they are gonna do anything but try to paint a positive picture….

    I still agree with keeping the full screen though. Stop shrinking my screen and put the stats and pictures in a small box next to the score. Stop trying to be like ESPN or something. That is the suck part for me. Stop stealing my screen size!

    So we missed Scoot's only bucket yesterday because they decided to show Chaunceys interview instead while coming out of the timeout.

    Amateur hour.

    Sometimes the broadcast comes off as though they're dealing with a 15 second delay and don't realize it.

    I was referring to whoever is in charge of the overall broadcast and whoever is in the control booth deciding which camera we see. Also, someone please spike Hurd's coffee with a tranquilizer, or just take the coffee away. Just shut the fuck up sometimes, and don't talk a mile a second. We don't need your caffeine high stream of consciousness. As far as being homers or not, I really don't care.

    I can't hear half his words. For the 2 voices to be distinct, they need to contrast each other. Kevin Calabro should continue talking like John Wayne or Elmer Fudd, but Lamar Hurd should speak in a higher pitch like Daffy Duck. I looked up Hurd and found this professionally-written article. Toward the end, I learned about his "noticeable diarrhea." I wonder who noticed this. The brain who wrote this forgot to capitalize her last name at both the start and end of the article.

    Is Lamar Hurd Sick? What HappenedTo Trail Blazers Tv Analyst
    There has been a rumor about Lamar Hurd being sick. This article discusses what happened to him and his illness.

    Lamar Hurd is a basketball player and American game anchor.

    He works with the Portland Trail Blazers as their T.V. investigator. Hurd was born in Houston, Texas, on December 8, 1983.

    He played basketball for Oregon State University from 2002 to 2006, which is a long time. The Trail Blazers Tv analyst sustained a severe injury while competing for the high school team, substantially impacting O.S.U.’s struggles.

    He received the Rookie of the Year and Pac-10 All-Freshman honors in his first season. Nevertheless, He is not currently a member of any team.

    Additionally, he is currently focused on T.V. research and mooring. The host of N.B.C. Sports Northwest is Lamar, who also has his weekly program called “Hurd Mentality.”

    Despite being a skilled anchor and T.V. critic, Lamar Hurd still needs to be listed on Wikipedia.

    He also spent years working at Root Sports as a college basketball analyst. In 2008, he gave up his job as a broadcaster to become a college basketball commentator.


    Is Lamar Hurd Sick? What Happened To Trail Blazers Tv Analyst?
    According to a rumor, Lamar Hurd is ill. Lamar Hurd may have had the flu, but nobody knows what happened.

    Additionally, is also a rumor that He caught covid as Brooke is also sick, and there is no information on what occurred to them.

    Everyone hopes that Lamar Hurd will be okay when the time comes since they are concerned that he could not be in good form.

    We must assume that he is still ill because he hasn’t mentioned his illness and isn’t using social media.

    We hope that Lamar will quickly recover because Kevin stated that he wasn’t feeling well and left early, even during the Cleveland game.

    Update On Lamar Hurd Illness
    Hurd has not yet provided any updates since he departed the game due to illness. He has always participated in video games, but recently, he hasn’t, which has his admirers concerned for his well-being.

    He reportedly suffers from the illness and noticeable diarrhea, which are symptoms of Covid-19, according to many.

    People assume he is in isolation because there is no sign of him being in public. His fans claim they still miss his voice because it’s been more than a week since he came home.

    We will update the information if we ever hear from him again and pray that his illness will quickly pass.

    In addition to his parents and brothers, he is currently married to his devoted and encouraging wife, Bethany Hurd. Eventually, the couple was married on September 7, 2016, after dating for a while.

    Unfortunately, Lamar hasn’t revealed any further explicit information about his better half, Bethany.
