If there are any new people that we have yet to see in this whirlwind "Announcer of the day" tour I'll add them to the poll. But I'm interested to see who you guys prefer to fill Henry Williams' old seat.

i like steph. she knows the game and team. i don't know about you guys, but i like that she is a complete homer (even while broadcasting). i won't my home team announcers to be more like fans than national media types.
I hate the fact she's a complete homer. I believe that if our guys screw up it should be pointed out, perhaps a little nicer than if the opposing team, but being a Bobcat does not mean you don't make mistakes.
Williams was horrible about this. My fav was when playing the Magic, Dwight had 45 and he said "its ok, you know he's going to get his". Uh...he doesn't average 45, so allowing him approx twice his average is ok? Come on.
I'd like to hear Steph and Alaa together as the broadcasting team.
I'd rather get rid of Steve Martin - who I am not a fan of at all.
Where is Henry going?
that is true. i like to hear my announcers be homers but like us...love the cats but not afraid to criticize. i just hate the bland national media types.
Slam,
On this you and I agree. I think Stephanie can be more objective but is being "respectful" of Martin who has been a local staple.
I actually enjoyed Alaa as he provided legitimate, unscripted insight on the fly of what was going on on the court. Too often I feel as though our broadcasts are slanted to make a point and the things that don't support that point are just glossed over.
That said, I doubt Steve is going anywhere.
i voted for Mugsy simply because he is hilarious in a bad way.
Being the nostalgic one, having G-Man and Martin reuinited would kick ass! Both have great voices and had nice play by play/color chemistry.
Ultimately though they could have Mike Patrick and Billy Packer, two of the most irritating, grating, terrible, etc. announcers ever do the telecasts as long as we win.
