    I don't understand this at all.

    MB in particular - you wont find a better commentator than him.

    My theory is one of the reasons for this change, is to build up the TV Market in Seattle, I believe the Blazers will work an agreement with Seattle based Root TV, and bring on Kevin Calabro. He was the voice of the Sonics, and well beloved. Seattle fans do not have the live game access we have in Portland, and basically watch on TV. This gives them more of a local flavor for them..

    The Blazers probably feel this is there best chance to build TV ratings, since Seattle has no team. Prediction: Seattle based, Root Sports gets the Blazers, Seattle’s Calabro, gets Barrets job.

    Calabro is solid too

    Damn it's pretty clear he feels confident on who he's bringing in. You can tell he can't wait to announce the new guys. This might be a good thing..

    I think they recognize The Brand that is Lillard. All star, all NBA, good guy, loyal, great at selling shoes/insurance/appliances and a legit bad ass rapper. I really think the Blazers are going to get, I don't know how to say it, cooler and youngered up? They have to address change or they get left behind. What if this shiny new announcing team and an internationally popular star makes Portland look like a "large" market because of that popularity and advertising opportunities?
