King: that should have been a dunk by Biyombo but the pass hit him in a bad place.

Funk: yeah, his hands

Biyombo has checked back in....

King: that's zellars third foul

Funk: He gives them something Biyombo doesn't, the ability to score

Biyombo leaves a hook shot way short

Funk: You don't want to be throwing him the ball

King: Monk was looking for Biyombo

*Scary Terry hits three*

Funk: that's what you want to do, don't throw it to Biyombo

I don't know if they will go back to Biyombo in crunch time. Funks right, he sucks.

I wish Mark Jackson got an offer to coach some crappy college team so Breen and JVG could announce games alone.

They'd bring in Richard Jefferson or promote the cloying cringe fest that is Doris Burke.

I fucking love Kevin Colabro. Old Shawn Kemp mix tapes are awesome enough but Calabro takes them to another level.

Bulls Suns tonight. Funk just called Devin Booker Derrick Booker, but I'm thinking he might pick Ayton as DPNFSO tonight. Tip off in a few mins.

It took Funk until about 10 min to go in the second but he seems to have indeed targeted Ayton.
