Something I have always enjoyed is the occasional one-liners by TV analysts:

“He must have gotten lonely. That’s the first open opportunity he had all night, and he drilled it.”

“You’ve got to box out Tyler Hansbrough. He plays like every rebound is his.”

“He (Roy Williams) is shopping from the top shelf at a high-end store.”

“Air is a precious commodity for those on the floor right now.”

“The only way to stop him…get a rope!!!!”

“When one team delivers a blow, the other comes back with a haymaker and connects.”

“It’s one thing to deny and another thing to undress.”

“It’s Pete Campbell! You can’t leave him alone! He’s #34!”

“I don’t think I ever looked that young.”

“The double kiss-a-roo!”

“This is swat central!”

“One-two – buckle it; Down!”

“A tear drop off the glass.”

Hear an entertaining line? Please post it here.

    That might be the greatest nickname in college basketball. The “White Lobster”

    Or if you are in Boston it would be the “White Lobstah”.

    “He’s really helping his team with his arms and his legs”
