    The inspiration for this thread had to be Mark Jackson. Everything he says is a cliche.

    Once, I was playing on my HS basketball team in some important game, and we were down double-digits and the coach had called a time out to chew us out. He was screaming all sorts of stuff, and at one point he says "And when you go back out there, I wanna see a 180 degree turn around." I then said "Wouldn't we be shooting at our own basket then?"

    He threw a water bottle at me and benched me for the rest of the game because I was taking the piss.

    "there is no I in team"
    and i heard michael say it best "but there's an I in wIn".

    Also, you could look up any interview in youtube, most players give out the same crap anytime.

    "Uh, i thought we played well..."
    "t'was a team effort"
    "it's a learning process" (Mastered by vinny del negro)
    "we have to get back on D"


    and the announcers... many have already been said, but...
    "<name> for threeeeeehhhhBAM!"
    Actually, i could say the most cliche thing i've heard is "kabum".

    "Y'know, that move kind'a reminds me of Jordan."

    Something like that or any Jordan comparison related.

    "You cant double off the box"

    "Miss a layup and the other team 99% of the time will get a layup on the other end"

    "Good scorer's find a way to draw contact and get to the free throw line"
