Commentary Line: A raging right-hand tomahawk jam from Player X!
Possible Trigger: Any dunk
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Commentary Line: Player X handles out top, looking to feed the post.
Possible Trigger: Any extended period of ball handling when on an inside oriented tactic
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Tactical

Commentary Line: Player X went high on his magic carpet to throw that one down!
Possible Trigger: Any finished lob
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Commentary Line: Player X was all over that rebound like a bad suit.
Possible Trigger: A defensive rebound. Perhaps following the "player X snapped up the defensive rebound". Not sure if there are degrees of rebounding, like a player easily controls it even though it's contested (when one player's skill is vastly superior to his counterpart perhaps)
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Commentary Line: Player X took the whole team on that play.
Possible Trigger: Successful unassisted driving layup.
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Commentary Line: Player X dumps it in low to Player Z.
Possible Trigger: Entry pass
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Neutral (maybe Biased/tied to tactical focus)

Commentary Line: That was probably not the shot their coach was looking for.
Possible Trigger: Low percentage three-point shooter missing an attempt.
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Commentary Line: That free throw (or basket) makes it a one (or two/three) possession game.
Possible trigger: Deficit cut or extended to 3 points (or 6 or 9) in the closing 90 seconds or so.
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Neutral

Commentary Line: Quick as a cat on a hot tin roof!
Possible Trigger: Unassisted driving layup
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Commentary Line: Player X with it on the mid-post (or the block) looking to go to work.
Possible Trigger: Post player preparing to take an unassisted attempt
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Neutral

Commentary Line: Player X has it on the wing. Quick jab step and he makes his move.
Possible Trigger: Perimeter player preparing to take an unassisted attempt
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Neutral

Commentary Line: Too bad the weather is so awfull. I bet the fans would enjoy a walk in the park a lot more then watching this game.
Possible Trigger: first time, after the 30 minute mark, when the leading team scores and is ahead at least 50 points.
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Commentary Line: Watching those cheerleaders is sure much more exciting as watching the game!
Possible Trigger: during a full time out where 1 team leads with at least 40 points, and only once in a game (so if it already occured, do not repeat)
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Biased

Add in who lost the ball when a player steals from them.

G. Jomm (A) strips the ballhandler and comes up with a steal.

Change to

G. Jomm (A) strips PLAYER X and comes up with a steal.

Commentary Line: And Player X reveals the importance of Free Throw!
Possible Trigger: Player X makes a free throw and his team is now leading the game
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Neutral

Biased would be something along the lines of a Tommy Heinsohn

Hell, just take the whole Tommy Heinsohn catalog for biased announcing. No one is better than that nut.

Commentary Line: Whohohohow, Merry Christmas!
Possible Trigger: Player X dunks (available only in the last regular season match which is at 25 of December)
Tactical/Neutral/Biased: Neutral
