Mark Jackson: Taking Portraits And Winning Championships

I'm currently watching the NBA Finals with my now favorite announcer Mark Jackson dropping some of the most hilarious lines NBA announcing has ever seen.

He usually gets that coveted spot right before the commercials start where he gets free reign to drop some absurd line semi-relating basketball to something nonsensical. Here's an example: "Kobe Bryant, hitting shots, and paying rent." Like, what? I don't get it, but I definitely dig it. No way of relating NBA basketball to barely paying rent. That's my world, don't get multi-million dollar basketball players involved, shit's depressing.

Here are some of my favorites: "Rajon Rondo, controlling the game, and teaching classes" Kevin Garnett, hittin' shots and starting forest fires" "You like this Lamar Odom, the way he's playing, getting to the bucket, and controlling the tempo."

I love this game.
