Now that the 3rd round has started we will not hear Hubie Brown or Mike Tirico anymore. Only Mike Breen, Van Gundy, and Mark Jackson.


These three clown get all the BIG GAMES and Mark Jackson's -"That was a grown man move" is the dumbest thing I ever heard.


Does anyone else hate listening to these clowns?

Idk I think Jeff Van Gundy is hilarious while calling the games, but he still makes great points about the game. Mark Jackson however is kind of annoying.

Ditto pretty much what everyone else said....Mark Jackson gets kind of annoying, and Van Gundy is the bright spot IMO, Van Gundy and Charles Barkley seem like they would be sh*t load of fun to go to a sports bar and get wasted with....

I have no idea why ABC doesn't have Hubie Brown as their main guy as color analyst. He is the best in the business w/Doug Collins a close 2nd & Mike Fratello behind them.

I don't have a problem w/Breen so much. Van Balky has his good moments, I do tend to like his 'lack of filter' i.e. he'll say anything, however, b/c of that, he has some pretty foolish ideas/comments at times. And Jackson is so-so at best.

Breen, Van Gundy and Jackson are weak. Several steps down from the gold standard set in the 80's or 90's, with marv albert, steve snapper jones, hannah storm, czar of the telestrator, mike fratello. Those guys flowed.

This team now is about 3 notches slower. Not as much personality. Jackson is probably a nice guy, but it seems like sometimes he doesn't want to be there. Van Gundy is sort of goofy.

Hubie Brown clearly loves the game. His passion shows. Same with Doug Collins. That's part of why those guys are so successful. Breen, Van Gundy, Jackson honestly seem like they could be doing other things. And if they missed the 3rd round of the playoffs, or the finals, it wouldn't be a big deal.
