You mean no slanted bias hater Mike Breen we have to listen to.

He makes an excuse or choosing a positive word for every Euro player in his broadcast, and will pump up and over exaggerate over anything a white player does. I've been listening to him for years now, he isn't as critical on a national broadcast, but on MSG I don't know how Clyde sits next to him without slapping him with a wet soapy dishrag. The strong comments he makes and doesn't make on certain players he likes or dislikes.

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

There are no haters, just those that spit the truth. Homers can't handle the truth, so its percieved as hate.

Right now we are putrid. only wins can rid of the stench.

Maybe DOlan gonna can Woodson before the game. Dolan is a classless piece of crap.

Jeff don't want to undermine Herb.

What car is Woodson driving these days? Gotta look sharp for those curbside exit interviews

I can't stand Barry or legler. Not just now but they never have anything good to say

They were irrelevant as players too

I like both of those guys compared to Breen, they tell it how it is , not just how and what they want you to think about a player or the game.

Jeff won't come back to NY unless Pat Riley is here with him or somebody he can look up to and trust.

Well, unless he needs a 2014 New Honda Civic

I like Legler in the studio but I am not a fan of Breen, Barry, and at times Clyde.

Breen is a heck of a play by play guy. After Marv he is the best as far as basketball goes. Those other guys are color commentators. Half the time they are mailing it in

having heard JVG through the years, he is doing this out of respect for Woodson so people don't speculate during the game

yes I agree, but his comments didn't exactly close the door on whether or not he would consider the job if offered after Woodson is fired. The only thing he is clear on is that he won't even consider it while Woddson is still the coach (no collusion). If Woodson is fired, it would be a good time for VG to come in because it is clear that the roster will be reshaped this year and he will have input on personal if he does take the job… He definitely won't consider the job if he doesn't. Sounds like it's in the wind and something is going to happen soon. 12/15 is less then a week away and we are looking like that is doomsday for our coach and certain players. I'd be surprised if Woodson makes it past the 14th…eh no, I'd be shocked.

I see it as a sign that he is considering it. It's not like he is facing the media. He can just sidestep the question from his broadcast mates.

Jeff just said on espn radio the producers had a discussion an that was it. Kinda beat around the bush and he said he is happy doing what he is doing and this was not in his control and looks forward to doing more Knicks games

Even more intriguing now imo

Breen is good but he hates melo and he loved D'Antoni. His hate comes out as bias in broadcasts. It is always fun when Jeff calls him on it.

To me Breen just loves Team BB and hates selfish BB. He wants to see more of a pure BB game. He's also got that referee mentality. I don't mind Breen that much, tho it seems he goes out of his way to not seem biased when doing NY games, so it comes across like he's hating. Still it's better than listening to the broadcast from other teams, which is unlistenable. Those homers are hard to take. I'm still mad at Dolan for firing Marv.

I hate other team broadcasts. Knick fans are pretty lucky to have Clyde and Breen.
