It's just as well that due to inflation one can nolonger order "Fish and fifty cents of chips."

"The had already asked the week before they admitted and still got it wrong"

They started the game pronouncing it correctly. Only reason it changed was a bunch of idiots jumped on Twitter to tell them they were wrong, even though they weren't.

A simple asking how to pronounce Owen's or even Goilding's name during shoot around should be sufficient.

NZ commentators could most definitely be more biased than what they are... Only criticism is games seem more fun to them when NZ are winning and unless your a journeyman like Hammwr or D-Ruck then it would be hard not to show some bias.

I hope for everyone's sake the NBL gets a grand final series going to three games as it isn't doing the league, foxtel or the sponsors any good having only two game series... Last season 3 series went 6 games!

Verdict is in.
Correct pronunciation is OdIggyAzalea.

Apologies, I'm on my phone and misremembered. It's Od-ig-ee-ay.

If you're going to insist people should know how to pronounce things, make sure they're actually wrong.

Because the commentary in game #1 wasn't?

That has two D sounds in the first two syllables.

Cameron Tragardh has been in the league for years and almost everyone insists the D is silent. It isn't.

Melbourne's Twitter account confirms it's pronounced Od-ig-i-ee.

"think they would know how to pronounce their names - Who is O-D-GUY ??"

Do you know how to pronounce it?
