Do you think Tom Heinsohn is annoying?

[EJPLAYA]

He's the perfect mix of a Celtic great and a Celtic fan. He talks with the pride of being a Celtic, but at the level of one of your buddies sitting watching the game with you.

He and Mike are the best broadcasters in the NBA, it doesn't get any better, only worse, enjoy what you have.

Tommy annoying? Absolutely not. Sometimes I tell my girlfriend I wish her voice sounded like Tommy's. Those are lonely nights.

I really love Gorman, I think he's the best play by play guy in sports.  Him and Tommy are a long running team and have great chemistry together.

"Potapenko has the best 5 foot jumper in the NBA.  He is close to becoming one of the top 5 centers in this league."


Also, no way in hell is Tommy annoying.  Donny on the other hand....lets just say I'm in the mood for cornbread instead.

I don't like either of Donnie or Max.  Donnie is too bland, and Cedric is at times too critical of Celtics greats (i.e. Larry Bird) for my taste.  Also, the "quack quack QUUUAAAACCCCKKKK" thing, to me, is ridiculously stupid.

[shiggins]

Its all a matter of taste.  quack quack is funny to me. 

"He was making toast, but didnt have any bread!"

His lines may be a little deep and too spiritual for some.

Or, completely nonsensical.

I have (and do) live in a couple other NBA markets.  Tommy is no more a homer than anywhere else.  The difference is he's passionate and he has a reason to be.  he's been a part of this organization for over 40 years.  Of course he cares.  

These other guys I listen to on Cavaliers broadcasts are just generic talking heads who are only homers because it's what their recent memo told them to do.

Tommy doesn't annoy me, but to be honest people that don't appreciate him do.

That too

Does Max "Quack" on television broadcasts? I don't remember hearing him do it the other day and thought, at times, he went out of his way to be impartial to the refs and eloquent. No that's not the word, understandable. Well that's not right either. Let's just say he went out of his way not to speak like his radio persona.

I thought it very good and much better than Donny Marshall.

I think whoever started this thread needs to check themselves cause u wreckin yourself! Who else would come up with "Quentin Richardson has the big back pockets!", Tommy is hilarious & insightful! I guess these are the kind of questions that get asked when things are too perfect..

[guava_wrench]

I often find him annoying, but he is great in studio when he can't cry about referees.

If he could lessen his homerism, he would be a lot better at color.

[zerophase]

I'm fine with Tommy. He has my respect. However, I do think that Maxwell did a better job in the Detroit game.
