    Has anyone noticed when Bill Walton is broadcasting Laker games he doesnt say a word about his son Luke. I find that really weird. Everytime luke does a good play he stays really quiet and says look at the athleticism of kobe bryant

    I think it's because he doesn't want people to think like he's overselling his son's athleticism by making him sound better than what he is.

    I think its because he doesn't want to make biased comments about Luke, so he refrains from making any comments about Luke.

    I noticed that too in the last Laker game I saw, the other commentator said something good about Luke making a nice pass or something, and Walton pretty much ignored it and talked about something else 2 seconds later.
