"Posey with the steal, he took it away! Posey with a huge defensive play" - Mike Breen

-Mike Breen.

nah, I am kidding, but boy, KG, Ray, and Pierce get to the finals all for the first time, and he kept on talking about how the pistons crowd were leaving when down 6 with under 30 seconds. I just get the feeling he does not like the celtics.

Van gundy and jackson are fine. but pair them with MIKE TIRICO. It would be so much better.

How about the celtics radio guys? Breen isn't a good guy to be calling an important play, too generic.

Does anyone know what Grande and or Max say on radio about the play?

Mike Breen didn't deserve to call such a great play.

Not sure if Tirico is from here or not, but he lives in the Detroit area....

I just ignore Breen, he's just a play by play straight man, yeah he screws up, but I don't care that much. Not everyone can be Marv Albert. Ernie Johnson is a nice straight-man too.

Damn, Marv Albert should have done the announcing. Posey's steal must go down as one of the greatest plays in playoffs' history.

Guys, that wasn't on the level of Bird or Havlicek. Bird's play (including DJ's part) DEFINITELY decided the game. Havlicek's definitely CLINCHED the game. Posey's was just very timely.

Gerald Henderson's was another biggie in its game, but I forget which game it was and hence how big the game was.
