These are the best calls from Eric Collins, the Charlotte Hornets commentator, but as the video goes on they get increasingly more crazy! Business Inquiries: mcosh3@gmail.com
This dude is amazing. The passion just seeps through his voice. If the Hornets won a championship on a buzzer beater his heart would literally explode in his chest
"It's really important to have clear communication when rotating off a screen and here.... OH KILL SHOT MUSHROOM STAMP THAT MFer, YOU GOT SONNNNNNED. #WORLDSTAR
4:30 as someone who used to live in Beaverton, OR I can tell you you have to cross a river, go all the way through Portland, drive through a big ass tunnel, then drive past the zoo a few miles down 26 with bumper to bumper just to get from Moda Center to Beaverton. In case anyone was wondering how far away that shot was. Lmao
Unapologetically a diehard fan for his team and makes the listeners feel like they're hanging out with another friend, but still gives the other teams and players their flowers. the definition of a great announcer
he’s not even from charlotte or even the carolinas, he’s from cleveland. it’s cool to see a guy like that care so much about the team; he’s just genuinely a fan of basketball
@@samc3030 two of my favourite commentators for the Raptors are both American and been doing it for years. They got genuine passion for the team and Canada as whole. Love it when teams have passionate commentators.
Nah they need to give those commentary jobs to established millionaires with no personality like the most amazing human being ever, Shaq (I’m being sarcastic of course). When he’s not doing commercials and being brown nosed that is.
The problem is that it wouldn’t be nearly as authentic. This guy definitely seems like a Hornets fan which means that he couldn’t just do this nationally. Plus, you put a broadcaster that’s extremely biased towards one team on national television, most people aren’t going to be happy.
Lmao such an innocent and wholesome style of announcing, in a good way lol. 4:22 who just goes “WHOOO!!” 4:30 “WHOOOO Alright!” 4:38 “WHAT!!! WHAT!!! WAAHOOOO!” 😂 love this man
I'm a Spurs fan but I love Eric Collins! During the Hornets/Spurs 1st game this year Wemby had 3 dunks in a row and after the 3rd dunk he just exclaims "I HAVE SEEN THE FUTURE, AND HE'S WEARING SILVER AND BLACK!"
Like, I get if your team is rivals with the Hornets, and you hate him hyping them up so much, but, be fucking for real lol imagine walking around hating the poor Hornets
@@elscorchbro11 Even then, he does a pretty good job acknowledging the other team making plays even when letting out all that despair. Like that Tatum 3 early in the vid.
@@elscorchbro11 Sometimes it can be a bit much, but ya gotta love and respect the enthusiasm at the end of the day. Don't know how bro still has vocal chords tho LOL
Can confirm. He missed his first game the other week, and man, that was some of the toughest TV I've ever watched. The man deserves a ceremony and spot in the rafters when he's finished. He's 100% Hornets royalty
Eric Collins... put some respect on his name. The best announcer/ultimate hornets fan. TERRY WON THE TIP!!! Ive never heard someone go unhinged after winning a jump ball. 😂😂 had me wheezing 🤣🤣
my throat hurts just listening to this guy.. the way he gets excited by a 2nd quarter nick richards layup is baffling and incredible to me at the same time
Your videos are always top notch man - crafted and sequenced well, edited well, always high quality. Just really appreciate the time and effort you put in man, keep up the good work.
My God, what an incredible announcer Eric Collins is. Imagine him and Gus Johnson commentating together for a game? Holy shit, I think the roof in that place would collapse from just the two of them.
