Re: Lets be real about Mike Breen
I think Breen despises Melo more than he likes the Knicks, which is sad.

Re: Lets be real about Mike Breen
Seriously have you guys even heard most other teams' announcers? Not only are they so homer that it's like a mildly autistic drunk fan is calling the game but they're just terrible all around. Breen does national games for a reason.
But really Knicks just won and ppl still gotta b*tch about dumb ish like this. Knicks board <3

False. We're hating on him because he's not balanced.
Nobody's balanced, so I don't see what the big deal is.

Re: Lets be real about Mike Breen
If anything, Breen is actually GREAT for the Knicks.
Players have massive egos, so they surely don't like being criticized publicly on TV. And because Breen mostly makes negative comments after selfish plays and bad defense, it produces many positive effects in the long run, since they try to prove that such assessments are wrong.

Re: Lets be real about Mike Breen
Theory:
TKF = Mike Breen
It explains everything
also the time traveler was clearly Delonte West, who broke at age 40 realized he needed another NBA contract to save his livelihood. What do I win?

Everyone's opinion of what "balanced" is is different. I think Knicks fans have a bias in their reaction towards Breen because he calls Knicks games...same with Clyde. Ask other fanbases their opinion of Breen and it will probably be different than Knicks fans who express their dismay with Breen. Additionally, I've seen fans of other teams on this site complain that Clyde is a homer and that they couldn't stand listening to him. Then again, they were fans of teams who generally dislike the Knicks. Bias is bias.

Y'all are so delusional it's hilarious

For the past 10 years, there hasn't been much to be optimistic about, even as an announcer, and when a team beats your ass each and every night, it's pretty difficult to be a homer announcer. Which is why Marv Albert was let go. He tried to call the game like it was, and call how much the Knicks sucked, but Jim Dolan wanted him to be an over-optimistic Knicks announcer and not criticize the team.
Breen did the Knicks radio play-by-play when Marv was our TV guy. He's Knicks down to the core, and some of you are claiming he "hates Melo". Hahaha.
You can guarantee he wants a Knicks NBA Championship just as much as Clyde does. He critiques a little, and some of you get on his d*ck. Some of you need to grow a pair. He's clearly a Knicks homer, just not when he's calling games on National TV. When it's all said and done, he's most likely going to be in the broadcasting hall-of-fame. You fools should be greatful we have him, instead of someone like Spero doing our games for an entire season.

Re: Lets be real about Mike Breen
And what really grinds my gears is Breen's "AND JUST LIKE THAT, IT'S DOWN TO...," which he says with such emphatic adulation, like a young pubescent boy touching his first tit. In fact, I suspect, Breen eagerly awaits his chance to utter those words, as he verbally prematurely ejaculates that expression countless times (AND JUST LIKE THAT, THE LEAD IS DOWN TO 18!).
He sucks.
He sucks.

No. I don't think folks want him sucking the opponents dick.

no one said they dont love the Knicks but we get bashed so much in the media who wants to hear that **** from your announce team
a bad shot or pass is okay to criticize but doing the same for the opponent is annoying along with praising them for tough defense and calling out our star player as asking for a foul when he plays D

You should first listen to some other broadcasting crews for a while ... MOST of them are beyond terrible.
