Yes. He's not good at it. Wally is a half a percentage point better. Why bother? Gus did a good job filling in. Keep him. I hate Wally too. Hopefully he's the next one gone.


Wally is clearly Clyde's replacement. Yes, this sucks, but MSG has invested too much time in him.

Hahn's actually better imo.

Oakley would be my choice.

Welp whatever lol Mark Jackson is meh on the air, his little sayings he does are so eyerolling lol

I wish we had a better replacement tho. Even though Wally is good and has been doing this a while, I sort of wish the job would go to another old Knick player.

Wally be so corny sometimes.

MSG should pay one of the good, IE, funny, posters here to operate the Clyde soundboard.

I believe him. No gain in releasing the statement. My understanding is that he's still getting paid by ESPN, so MSG couldn't pay him (or something like that). Travel expenses weren't going to be covered by MSG. He and MSG probably couldn't come to an agreement.

I mean, this had to be known by someone in that office before he signed. Something new must have popped off.

Right...I mean there's got to me more than...Mark Jackson wanted to get on a charter plane...your fired! If there was a pre- existing beef why hire him in the first place?


Remember on Friends when Monica hires Joey at the restaurant she works at in order to fire him and send a message to the workers?

LMAO. I was thinking of this as well TBH.

I wonder if this was some weird "Power Move" by Leon just to assert his dominance. A poor way to remind people that nobody is safe.

Never wanted this clown.

NGL, it would have been nice to have a former Knicks point guard calling games for us.


Agree.

Just make it Greg Anthony instead of M Jax

I wouldn't be surprised to see Amar'e getting a view appearances at broadcasting. Iman Shumpert too.
