Game 2 was bad, but I think for both Game 1 and 3 Hughson was probably also making his call (probably inadvertently) in response to the crowd's energy. It's easier to make an enthusiastic description of what is happening in an environment in which the crowd is visibly, audibly invested and excited. It is more difficult when they are more subdued.
