Was Tommy Heinsohn The Reason The Celtics Won Last Night?
Listen I know this video isn't that great and doesn't show that much. But at the same time it does. That little pump fist from Tommy Heinsohn kind of sums up why I love Heinsohn and hate Donny Marshall. Tommy Heinshon fucking cares if the Celtic win or lose. Donny Marshall doesn't. It's that simple. And it comes across in their telecasts. I don't know when or how Boston TV executives got the idea that we want some imparshall dude calling the games. I want a flaming homer (not the drink) doing the telecast especially with the Celtics who have a history of guys like Johnny Most and Tommy Heinsohn doing the broadcasts. To be honest I actually don't think Donny Marshall is that bad at being a color guy besides the fact he talks about his NBA experience way to much when he was a career bench guy. But it's just that he has zero connection with the Celtics. It's not his fault but he just shouldn't be the guy to replace Heinsohn. We need a guy who bleeds green and isn't afraid to show it. A guy really deep down gives a shit if the Celtics win or lose. Donny Marshall isnt' that guy. Let me put it this way he definitly wouldn't have called Mike Bibby a "little varmont" last night.
