How is this guy still getting paid? This is so beyond the point of calling an NBA game that he should be fired on the spot. Awful.
And for all his ing, the C's missed NINE free throws and lost despite shooting 54% and 47% from the field and 3.Heinsohn.
Think you have it bad, try watching every home game.
Still & all I'll never forget him post game on June 9, 1985. He had to stand there in Boston Garden, next to Stockton and take it.
& he took it.
that was pretty good. every time a foul is called on that double got, he looks like he's about to cry.
Heinsohn is the most entertaining announcer in NBA history, tbh..
I don't understand fans that want opposing announcers to be unbiased and bland..
There's nothing funnier in the NBA than watching Heinsohn complain about your team getting a call in their favor..it's better than watching unbiased announcers like the Magic or Lakers and others that are boring as , tbh..
I just watched the video, too funny..
Lebron is my favorite non-Spur in the NBA, yet I was still highly entertained by that clip..it enhances the rivalry, tbh..wish I could have seen Heinsohn's face after King's game winner..
Sean Luck The Fakers is right there with him tbh
Heinsohn is the worst, especially now that he's clearly senile and has no clue where he is or what he's talking about....
troof bomb
Bill Walton's the GOAT though.
Who does OP think is the best color commentator covering a local team atm?
Bill Walton is the goat. Good call.
Heinsohn brings the homer goods. Drexler brings the homer bads.
This. It's not like he tries to be impartial...
I don't mind favoritism from announcers.
However, that should ALWAYS take a back seat to calling the game. I think he goes over the line here and branches into asshattery. After all, fans give each other for complaining about the refs all the time -- why is it acceptable for someone who's getting PAID to call the game to do so?
It's amazing that Heinson was once the lead analyst for national telecasts of NBA games. Of course, the Celtics were on CBS every week back in the day, so I guess it wasn't too amazing.
Who do you think is a really good local color commentator OP?
when is more of a homer than most Celtic posters in here you know there's a problem.
Little children hear these comments with their virgin ears and are just unfortunately going to grow to become whinny es thanks to this individual. Shame on him and the Celtics franchise and the city of Boston.
Toronto, Knicks, Sixers, Lakers, Pistons.
Oh man, Walton was awesome when he did color for the Clippers. He did nothing but scoff the team, and Olowokandi especially. The only NBA broadcasting team I have ever seen better than Lawler & Walton was Chick & Stu (mostly because of Hearn though).
Remember when Luck the Faker was a color commentator on ABC and BSPN? He probably couldn't hold in his homerism, which is why he left and came back home.
