Egg time. Hello, McFly?

 

[D-Dogg]

Egg time. Hello, McFly?

Thank you Biff. Why and what the hell does this mean?

Thank you Biff. Why and what the hell does this mean?

If I have to spell it out for you, you wouldn't understand.

Shazam!! Twine time!

I don't think you understand it either, do you?

 

[Mulli]

No idea what it means. I can't see Al refering to huevos as in cajones.

Question: Why does McCoy say "huevo time?"

He's saying "Whammo Time"

 

[D-Dogg]

He's saying "Whammo Time"

Really? Why does he say it like Wheymo time then? Totally sounds like huevos.

Weird. Shazam.

Zing go the Strings for KJ.

When I was young I thought McCoy was a genius for being able to precisely estimate how far the shot was.

Walter Davis from 20 feet!

I was like "Wow!"

 

[Gee!]

Notice how this doesnt say or mention the age.. So 3 years ago you thought McCoy was a genius?

Yeah, he stole that from Chick Hearn who was the first radio announcer to do it.

Chick did everything first...he named an insane amount of things everyone uses today. (and yes, was the first to describe the distance of a shot). The guy is just a freaking legendary man.

All of them are at that link, but here are some of the better known:

Air ball
A shot that misses everything.

Boo birds
Fans who boo their own team when they play badly.

Camping in the lane
A player who spends a lot of time in the lane without getting called for a three-second violation.

Charity Stripe
Free-throw line.

Didn't draw iron
A shot which misses the rim, but hits the backboard.

Dribble Drive
Drive to the basket while dribbling.

Finger roll
A shot where the ball rolls off the shooter's fingers.

Four Point Switch
One team misses an easy layup, and the other team rebounds and scores quickly.


Garbage play
A player picks up a loose ball that luckily is close by and has an easy shot.

Garbage time
The remainder of the game, after it's in the refrigerator.

Give & go
Give the ball to a team-mate & cut to the basket.

Hangs in the air
Used to describe hanging shots by Elgin Baylor, Michael Jordan, Dr. J., etc.

Matador defense
Poor defense in which the lane opens up for a driving player like a matador pulling his cape out of the way of a charging bull.

No harm, no foul (, no blood, no ambulance)
A non-call by an official when significant contact has occurred.

No-look pass
A pass made to another player without looking at him.

Picked his pocket
A steal so quick the victim didn't even see it happen.


Sky Hook
Kareem's shot from so high, no one could block it.

Slaaaaaam Dunk!!!
A dunk with authority, also Chick was the first to use the phrase "slam dunk".

Stutter Step
Coined after a move patented by Archie Clark, a Laker in the late '60's.

Telegraphs a pass
The recipient of a "telegraphed" pass is so obvious, that the defender knows which way to reach to block it. It's as if a telegraph message was sent to the recipient in advance so that he would know that it was coming. The defender picks up on this and can then block the pass.

Throws up a brick
When a player tosses up a particularly errant shot.

Ticky-tack
A foul called when very little contact has been made.

Triple-double
A player gets double figures in three statistical categories, usually points, rebounds, and assists. Also could be steals or blocked shots, but these are rarer.

Chick was also the first radio broadcaster to read War of the Worlds on the air.

He left the studio mid paragraph to hide.
