Lets be real about Mike Breen 

Post#1 » by Fury » Sat Apr 20, 2013 10:00 pm

The dude was clearly rooting for Boston. I like Mike Breen, or at least I thought I did. He criticized the Knicks as usual, but he never got on Boston for anything. Any time the Knicks got a call he's like "I dunno..." And when Melo tried Ding up "HES BEGGING FOR A FOUL!" It's gotten out of control. **** him.

I think he's so afraid of being labeled as biased towards the Knicks that he tends to sway towards the other team in national broadcasts.

It ain't regular season no mo. I don't give too much of a f*ck about Mike Breen right now.

Knicks just need to win this series and move on to the next.

STFU about Mike Breen already. Y'all need to stop b*tching. He's not on MSG during this game. He's a Knicks fan at heart, and he's always claimed that his dream was to call Knicks games growing up.

Enjoy the win and stfu.

Van Gundy is a good Breen neutralizer though. He calls it straight as can be.

He's clearly overcompensating to not be seen as biased.

Van Gundy made it tolerable, but Breen is definitely a madman

So we're complaining about Mike Breen because he isn't as much of a homer as we'd like? Really?

He's usually worse when he's calling the Knicks on ABC/ESPN

I've hated Breen for years. I bet Dolan would have canned him by now if he didn't call national games.

As annoying as Breen can be at times, he's still better than most play by play guys in the NBA. Would you have an extreme homer like most teams?

No its like this

Celtics getting physical on D with Melo "The Celtics are doing a great job on Carmelo Anthony right now, Jeff"

Carmelo getting physical on D with the Celtics "He's begging for a foul"

Carmelo not getting physical on D with the Celtics "He's got to defend better all the greats have"

Pierce hitting a contested shot "He's made a living off hitting contested jumpers"

Carmelo hitting a contested shot "No ball movement Clyde"

same **** every time with him

Every time one of these anti-breen threads rears its ugly head I want to vomit. THE GUY IS A KNICKS FAN and HE IS THE BEST IN THE GAME AT HIS JOB!!!!!! He grew up a Knicks fan, he was not rooting for Boston. Seriously how old/stupid are those who believe he wanted Boston to win. He and Van Gundy are the #1 team for ABC so he can't be a complete homer. Do you want him to sound like Tommy Heinson and be the running joke of the industry? Shut up. Enough. Breen is a Knicks fan like all of us. He can't express it so conspicuously on ABC. Perhaps he does get a little to negative at times. But, for those of you berating him ... do you never get to critical of the team? SHUT UP!
