  • No one has had a better seat to more Lakers history than longtime PA Announcer Lawrence Tanter. Not only was he there for Showtime, Kobe/Shaq & LeBron/AD, but even for Marvin Gaye's historic national anthem

    When you hear it on TV it's one thing, but when you listen to the lineups being announced. His voice is iconic and radiates through Staples Center!

    We truly need to appreciate Him and Stu Lantz while we still have them. Once they're both gone... End of an era.

    When Kobe died, and Lawrence said "Kobe Bryant was one of the greatest players of all time", you could hear his voice crack as if he was about to break down and cry. Thats when it finally hit me that Kobe was gone. A voice as cool and iconic as Lawrence Tanner's was overcome by emotion and that made me emotional. For a week of shock and denial about Kobe passing Lawrence Tanner made me accept it.

    FINALLY!.. I found him, for a long time of research, he is the GOAT for me on calling players, his voice so iconic, tf, I like his voice every time he will voice out after the player's shooting the ball 🔥😌

    He definitely has a Jazz type of voice. No shock that he used to work a jazz station. His voice is incredibly smooth and soothing, even in this interview

    As one person put it, Lawrence Tanter’s voice feels like home, it encompasses the tranquilizing side and aspects of Los Angeles.

    ABOUT DAM TIME THEY INTERVIEW ONE OF THE BEST PA ANNOUNCERS IN SPORTS AND DEFINITELY THE BEST IN THE NBA. NOTHING LIKE GOING TO A LAKERS GAME AND HEARING HIS VOICE ECHO INSIDE THE STAPLES CENTER

    I would love an audio clip of LT announcing "Shaquiiiiille O'Neeeeeal" after Shaq would score a basket.

      Like that time against Portland back at the Forum, where he came down the lane as the trailer, and the Diesel rose up to tomahawk it home and 1 over Jermaine O'Neal.

    Not trying to hate, but his voice has to be one of the worst when it comes to announcing. Sounds very nasally and muffled and just doesn’t sound like a voice a pa guy should have. I know a lot of ppl love his voice but I just can’t see it.

    The dullest and snoozing announcer in the NBA.

    • @CoyotesThunderfan10
      @CoyotesThunderfan10 Год назад

      @Sheha Nagaraj he does not announce the home scoring players or the starting lineups for the Lakers with the energy that every PA announcer needs to have today. Yeah it’s old school but those days are LONG GONE. Lawrence Tanter needs to either get with the times or get off the mic

      The old days are LONG OVER, but his legacy stays. You can't beat 40-year tenure of his, unless you're just an opposing fan dissing on him.
