Best game I have seen this year.

Gus Johnson is the best in the biz, Bill Raftery is #2. These guys could make IUPUI vs NJIT interesting.

If I had a narrator for my life it would be gus Johnson.

I gotta disagree with you on Raftery. I can not stand the guy. Yes, his "Onions" and "Man to man" calls are fun. Yes he can be entertaining. However, for the other 38 minutes of the game he is calling he is absolutely awful.

Gus Johnson is HEADS AND SHOULDERS above all else, but who would you want beside him other than Raft?

Well Gus is a play-by-play guy right? I will admit I am not the most versed in the assortment of announcers, but personally (I know this might not be supported by others) I love Jay Bilas as an in-game color guy. His analysis is almost always spot on, very fair, and in depth. He doesn't do a whole lot of bulls**t that takes away from the game. He tends to be on point, intelligent, and fair.

Other than him, pretty much any color guy not named Bill Raftery or Dick Vitale.

Guys I am not sure if they are play by play or color guys but I tend to like are Dykes, Franschilla, and Nantz.

Edit: I even usually like Bobby Knight as a color guy when he is not doing the game with Musberger.
