He is horrible... and adds nothing to my viewing experience.

I tolerate Stu because of the sentimental ties... but I don't know how Billy Mac ever landed this gig.

I've never learned one single thing from listening to him... he's a complete zero in my book.

Chick... you were the greatest... miss hearing your calls.


every call with BM is like the game winner...even the first basket
Dude don't get that excited there will be 100 more before it's over
You're right you can't learn from that...he serves at Jeanie's desires

As for Stu...I quit listening to him on Nov 9? 2017 when he said the keys to the game were containing Jody Meeks...I thought it was a joke but when it turned out it wasn't I turned on the opponents broadcast and have been happy ever since

I have cable only for the Lakers games that I watch on my computer...I watch the pregame which is always terrible and the postgame show which is always great with interviews and replays(the only time I hear BM)
When the game comes on I find a stream...don't care if it's behind a couple of minutes ... a small price to pay to keep that BM out of my ears

this is one of my favorite Chick games to play in the background when I'm doing chores at home:

Shaq scores career high 61 vs. clippers on his birthday

I pay for cable so I might as well watch it rather than relying on delayed or spotty streaming. I listen to ESPN or TNT when the game's national.

I'm sure Billy Mac is a decent guy... but growing up listening to Chick and Vin... I can't take listening to him.

At least if it's a former player you can gain some insight from the player perspective... he offers nothing other than spewing obvious sh*t we already know.


I actually like Bill Macdonald, but Stu Lantz is unbearable.

Whole lot of negative culture here on LG over the last few years...I'm wondering if listening to Stu's negativity has influenced all of LakerLand or just here on LG?

Technically BM is very good but appeases Stu too easily and he just gets too excited for the simplest of baskets ...it would be OK if he ramped it up with the circumstances and had a heart attack when we win the championship

Bill McDonald is likable, but horrible as a commentator. Deep and Down, and the rest of his weird attempts at catch phrases are just painful. Whoaaa what did I just see, Fresh Snow, etc.. What a joke. BUT, he's likable, seems like a nice, friendly guy and doesn't come off as a jerk.

We all knew nobody could replace Chick, and I think people just are realizing the divide between his quality and everybody else was pretty wide. Miss Chick - would love to have had him around for Kobe's last season, through some of our more painful recent years (he kept the Lakers honest, but also fun in our NVE, Eddie, Cedric Ceballos years) and often wonder what his take on modern NBA basketball would be.

I used to hate the "beat LA" chant until I heard Chick say it was a badge of honor. No other team has a chant against them like that. I learned basketball and work ethic from the greatest of all time, Chick Hearn.

I hate Stu because he constantly corrects Billy. It's incredibly annoying.
