The more I hear Mark Jackson talk, the more thankful I am that we didn't hire him

No, obviously if you hate the Celtics it's going to sound like that though. Breen, JVG, and Jax are a great play-by-play team. It's been great listening to them throughout the playoffs.

I completely agree, the play by play has been very entertaining. Also, it is very clear just how knowledgeable JVG is abotu the game. Don't get me wrong, he gets ridiculous at times especially with his JVG rules, but he's just playing around. He truly KNOWS the game and his emphasis on defense without giving up offense is a nice and appropriate mix.

JVG is so much fun as an announcer. He's alot more enthusiastic than I thought he would be.

yea, definitely a lot less stressful than coaching. He gets to keep his hair when he announces.

Agreed. He's awful. The other two are fine though. I really like JVG.
