Lucky enough to watch Clyde during the glory years at MSG, when I was a kid. Lucky to have Frazier impart his wisdom, rhymes, and fashion sense, to Knicks fans. Makes me feel like Im back home.

Agree with the props for Frazier but I have to give Breen a lot of credit as well. The comparison that comes to mind was the NFL broadcast team of John Madden and Pat Summerall. Madden was the flashy, brash color commentator that everyone talked about while Summerall was the perfect counterpart. Kenny Albert does a nice job but IMO Mike Breen is the consummate professional who makes Clyde even better.
In a similar vein, I'm not a Mets fan (nor hater) but if there's a better baseball broadcasting team than Darling, Hernandez, and Cohen, I've not heard them. |

My first memories of pro ball was 1971. Clyde has always been in my stream of consciousness over 50 years. I don’t even think if he is good or not. He is family.
