Stacey King a few weeks ago on announcing:
“It’s a fun job, it never seems like work for me. Every night I go to work, win, lose or draw, I’m having fun… one thing I’ve always tried was if you couldn’t come to a Bulls game, you’re entertained on TV.”
This is a message I think everyone needs for their life.
Stacey was one of a kind because his passion was authentic and his ability to connect with so many was genuine. His knowledge of the game sometimes got overshadowed by his catch phrases. But man, he knew ball. He welcomed me to broadcast side and made me better RIP to an original
DRose: Like a Ferrari with a bunch of Hyundais. Too big, too strong, too fast too good!
Joakim Noah: HEART HUSTLE & MUSCLE
Jimmy Butler: Jimmy G Buckets, the G stands for Gets
Taj Gibson: Hard hat and lunch pail
Luol Deng: Lt. DENG 🫡
Kyle Korver: Gimme the hot sauce(the OG)
Every one of these type of notifications hit so hard.
Stacey King made watching bad Bulls seasons more enjoyable with his commentary. Truly was the one person you could count on every game
Im sick to my stomach.
RIP Stacey King
