OT: but what the hell is with this "shanghai shake" nonsense. I realize Bill, Clyde and matt want to give Yao a pet move but any time Yao breathes on the post they label it "Shanghai shake." Basically any time he scores on the low post is probably a shanghai shake. It's getting really annoying.
"heat check" spread like Ebola. Everytime someone shoots twice in a row all I hear is "thats a heat check", "heat check this, heat check that". I think Bullard started it but now Drexler and even Worrell are killing me. Also I realize Drexler doesn't answer his phone. Okay... I get it...
Okay, to be fair, I would rather have him than some of those other band-wagon commentators. Plus he's probably the most humble, nice, guy you'll find, albeit foolish sometimes. Anyways here's one: After Yao had just dunked the ball (this was during the Blazers game) Clyde: "Wait, can he even get over the rim?" Bill Worrel: ".....(silence) Of course....he just dunked it!" Clyde:"Ha ha ha ha .....you're so right" (in a Keanu Reaves voice in Bill & Ted's)------kidding this is just my fantasy filler Poor guy
my favorite was during a game last year when they had like the panda express upcoming schedule graphic on and clyde was laughing hard. BW: Whats so funny clyde? CD: I had chinese food last night! my roommate and i could not stop laughing at that for hours, kept rewinding and replaying that.
haha... i posted this quote last year in the drexlerisms thread...clyde actually said "Well, I like chinese food, so...."
I know this thread is for pure ****s and giggles... but I'm truly concerned about the young Rocket fans currently in their formative years, who think Drexler is actually a smart/informed color man. We're raising a bunch of moron Rocket fans with his idiotic commentary.
I actually don't get a chance to hear clyde that much since I'm at the home games, but I caught the re-broadcast of the blazers game and that "psycho-analysis" crap was funny....not because Clyde didn't know what it was called, but more so because psychoanalysis had NOTHING to do with what Bonzi did......AT ALL........... lol.....
Okay... I am going to have to defend Clyde. I only started listening to him this year since I go to my friend's house to watch NBA, but this was a class line from the Blazers game: After someone (I think Aldridge) traveled: Clyde: Pack your bags kid because your traveling!!! HAHAHAHAHa. That is great!
