OMG Heinsohn's nothing more than a loudmouth fan. So immature the way he yells about every foul call that doesn't go the Cletics' way. Will never give an opposing player his due. I can't imagine how Mike Gorman can stand broadcasting with the guy. I have to mute the sound when Tommy gets going, he's totally obnoxious. I think Celtics fans should have a higher class announcer.

Does this mean that you’re not looking forward to the Greg Dickerson/Donny Marshall error, er…. era?

If you’re going to pick TODAY to ask about him, I definitely APPROVE!

My highest approval of anyone (besides Gorman) that you could throw on here. As I said when Gorman was up for discussion, once he retires, watching Celtics games will not be the same.

I thought this season brought out the best in Tommy…With a great team in front of him, he actually had high level basketball and big games to talk about and analyze–and he did it wonderfully. I agree that in the last few years and during the Pitino era Tommy’s constant railing about the refs got tiresome, but this year was different. Strong Approval!

From watching almost every Celtics telecast over the past 11 years, I can safely say I’ve learned more about the game of basketball from Mr. Heinsohn than any basketball coach I’ve ever had. Very generous with his time, even posing for a picture with some friends after catching him leaving a home game late one night with his wife. As for his homerism, it’s kinda tough to be objective when you’ve worked for the team for over 50 years, and his issues with officiating are more often than not a result of shoddy officiating. It will be a very sad day when he and Mike Gorman are no longer broadcasting Celtics games, and we’ll be stuck with generic crums the likes of Dickerson and Marshall.

Strongly approve!

The Chicago Typewriter from Jersey City.

Smoked pall malls and is a hall of famer player. Approve.

during the dark years was one of the only reasons to keep watching. He saw hope in every defeat, potential in every washed up or soon to be washed up bottom of the barrel import. Through thick and thin the guy kept going. A poet and a painter. A timeless classic.
