January 14, 200917 yr I don't know what I think about Jimmy Dykes. I don't mind him, but I can't stand him at the same time. I'd prefer to listen to him over a lot of announcers, but I can't stand his sayings that he repeats over & over & over. Last night he said that one of the best parts of Jodie Meeks' game is that he doesn't guard himself. That's right, he doesn't guard himself. I hated when he kept talking about having turnovers in the acceptable part of the court. He mentioned that multiple times. Against Miami, it was horrible when he kept saying CSI Miami - Can't Shoot Immediately! C'mon Jimmy, you're better than that. Overall I think he's alright.
January 14, 200917 yr "Mother-in-law defense" I love that one! I agree with many of you in saying you're conflicted on Jimmy Dykes. He seems knowledgable and enthusiastic, but he can beat the dead horse with his phrases. On the whole I'll take him, but part of that is because he's often paired with Brad Nessler who is fantastic.

"He makes violent cuts out there"
January 14, 200917 yr I share the same feelings. "He makes violent cuts out there" Ray Lewis makes violent cuts... :walk:
January 15, 200917 yr My beef with him has already been stated... He beats the same thoughts into your head all game long... He has his talking points, and he makes sure he talks about them. Other than that, he's fine.
January 15, 200917 yr Remember last season? It is a "pound your chest game." He used that when refering to an opportunity to get a signature win.
January 15, 200917 yr He is the "next generation" Dick Vitale. I don't really think that's a bad thing.
January 15, 200917 yr I've always enjoyed Dykes, but he can go a bit overboard with his phrases. I did learn one thing last night, turnovers can be acceptable unless they are in that red zone of his.
