15. "Throw it down, big man! Throw it DOWN!"

14. Broadcasting with Steve "Snapper" Jones: “That’s a terrible defensive effort by Robert Horry. He didn’t even make it difficult for Rasheed Wallace to score.”  Snapper: “Well, what do you expect? Earlier you said that Wallace could be one of the best players in the game, and now you want Robert Horry to guard him one-on-one?”

Bill: “No, I said that Rasheed could be the best player in the game.”

13. "Tony Parker just made the worst pass...in the history of Western Civilization!"

11. “Oh my, Kobe is really putting on a show out there. He’s making Ray Allen look like a sixth grader!”

10. Another broadcast, this time with Tom Hammon: “John Stockton is one of the true marvels, not just of basketball, or in America, but in the history of Western Civilization!”  Tom: “Wow, that’s a pretty strong statement. I guess I don’t have a good handle on world history.” 

Bill: “Well Tom, that’s because you didn’t go to UCLA.”

9. "He's like a four-armed Dikembe Mutombo around the basket!"

6. "Where else but the NBA could people like Bill Russell, Spencer Haywood, Ricky Barry, Dennis Rodman, and Allen Iverson come in and be allowed to be who they are?"

5. "A lot of people understand what not saying anything means, so, in effect, not saying anything is really saying a lot."
