Better commentator - Patrick or John?

[Mr.Lob]

pretty much this... Mary Carillo I cant stand her but Navratalova seems to offer some good analysis

Yep. Don't care for Carillo, Tracy Austin or Chris Evert that much. But I do like Martina's commentary.

Agassi was pretty chill when he guested.

Tracy Austin's voice is not my favourite, let's just say that. Don't mind Carillo but understand most do. Frew is alright too. Chris Bradnam(?) is probably my least favourite, mainly for the OTT 'WOW!!!11!1oneone" exclamations. Probably the only one I'll consider muting. Still, does the job though and I don't think many others seem to mind him.

Patrick goes with whatever the new trend is. Wants on court coaching, a goat for every surface and totally overrates Djokovic. John keeps it real.

John kept it real when he claimed Rafa was the greatest volleyer in the game? How about when he proclaimed Fed GOAT in 2007 when he was far from Pete's slam record? What about when he said Lendl's FH was "nothing special, very overrated?"

@JustBob Did you know Keith and John have hung out over the years?

Claiming Rafa was the greatest volleyer was a little much. Seems like I remember him saying he was right up there with Federer. Rafa is great at the net when he chooses to come in. It's just not that often. He ended up being right about Fed by a country mile, although I agree it was a little premature. As far as Lendl goes, we know he never got over the 1984 FO final . More salt than truth in this instance.

Oh, definitely John. I mean, I learn so much about John from John whenever he's commentating and he never lets the listening audience forget about John and John's great and seemingly oft forgotten accomplishments.
