So the other announcer is the announcer for the teams theyre playing vs?

Why does the team have an announcer for that specific team??? Wtf

Or when sixers play like celtics do they flip a coin to see which announcer calls the game

That's honestly shocking considering your head is mostly full of air.

Unless it’s a major broadcast company airing the game (espn, cbs, abc or whatever - I’m not too familiar with all the American channels) then each home team has its own broadcast announcers, usually a play-by-play caller and a game analyst.

I don’t know exactly the specifics but sometimes you can get streams with your own teams announcers calling away games. I don’t know how or why this happens though. I’m assuming it has something to do with single team league pass though e.g if I signed up to the Celtics only league pass, id get 82 games of Mike Gorman and Brian Scalabrine (the goats)

Hope this was helpful

Faithfully yours,
