    The Pantheon of Boston announcers: Who you got?

    You know I was going to say this too in my post but chickened out. I think he went from generic to start the season to really great by the end with a ton of room to grow. With Mike now gone and Jack making listening to Bruins games tough bringing down Brick Drew is my favorite current voice I hear

    The Pantheon of Boston announcers: Who you got?

    Mike Gorman’s last game as voice of the Celtics.

    Mike Gorman’s last game as voice of the Celtics.

    Yup. I'm curious to watch, because it kind of goes against how he approaches commentating by less is more. I still think him as a third person on set would be great. It also wouldn't surprise me if the door wasn't wide open for next season if he wants to do a couple games or studio work. We...

    Mike Gorman’s last game as voice of the Celtics.

    Yup, he's still going to call the first round, and since Drew I think said he was done for the season maybe Mike plans on travelling too. He also mentioned a few broadcasts ago he might be doing some studio work in the later rounds.

    April 14 Regular Season Finale v Bullets: Mike Gorman Sendoff night

    It's rare that a person can be in a room of 20,000 people and there is a good chance everyone adores him edit a neutral room, not a concert or rally

    April 14 Regular Season Finale v Bullets: Mike Gorman Sendoff night

    The position Mike is in right now is probably my greatest fear, on the spot people talking about me. I'm uncomfortable for him

    April 14 Regular Season Finale v Bullets: Mike Gorman Sendoff night

    Sounded like on the broadcast a few days ago he might be doing some studio work for the playoffs too. Not the same, but I'll tune in

    April 14 Regular Season Finale v Bullets: Mike Gorman Sendoff night

    He is, they wanted to give him a proper send off where the whole game can be about him and only him

    Poor MIke is going to be a puddle by the end of this game. Certainly not me though

    Love to see Joe still coaching after the buzzer in a meaningless game without the top 6

    April 12 Celtics Fan Appreciation Day v Hornets, aka Granite homecoming

    I think this game should solidify Brad as Exec of the Year. It's amazing his ability to add this much talent up and down the roster while at the same time all these dudes seem like really good guys
