What’s the first thing you think about when you think about Gary Gerould? For me it’s his signature call, “heeeeeeeeeeeeeee’s got the bucket!”. The G-Man has been calling games in Sacramento ever since they came here, and he’s as much a part of the franchise to me and many others as any player, coach or GM.
I still remember being grounded as a kid once, not able to watch the Kings on TV, so I had my radio on in my room listening to Gary while I was dribbling and shooting an imaginary basketball, trying to recreate the picture that Gary was painting.
