He’s good, but almost too ‘perfect’. I don’t know if it’s age that annoys me or what, but him being the new voice of the Celtics doesn’t feel organic. I honestly think he’ll get scooped up nationally sooner rather than later. And it will be well deserved.

I’ll give him a B because he’s clearly well trained and has a voice for broadcasting, but I definitely preferred Grande. He just has more of the sound and personality of someone from the northeast.

I agree. Drew seems like a nice guy and he’s clearly very smart, but it doesn’t feel right. Grande and Max should have followed Mike and Tommy, IMO.
