It might be just you, Mark.  I think the Dick
Stockton/Reggie Miller broadcast team for the
Mavs/Warriors series is, as Bill Walton would say,
TERRIBLE and a DISGRACE to the NBA's best first-round
series.  Reggie's practically clueless (they made some
good fun of him last night when he accidentally said
that GS was throwing the 'whole kitchen book' at
Dirk), and consistently comments on things an average
of 3 minutes after they happen.  And Dick?  Don't get
me started...other than the tone of his voice, which
is very nice, he has trouble following the action (not
good for the supposed play-by-play guy) and brings
nothing original or insightful to the telecast,
spouting tired cliches in sentence after sentence. 
And to top things off, the guys don't even seem to
like each other.  In general there is a dirth of
quality NBA broadcasters, but I think these guys are
bottom of the barrel.
