Hall of Famer, former Knicks broadcaster John Andariese dies at 78


I always liked him. Another part of my past, gone.

Wow. Sad news. Breen was talking about him over the weekend. I always enjoyed him as well.

grew up listening to him. class act. RIP
Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

i loved how he was so classy. in the 90s, the knicks used to play some unaesthetic bully ball but johnny hoops would call the games (and the hard fouls) as if they were intelligent classy plays

Unbelievably sad. No better color commentator ever as far as I'm concerned. He brought SO MUCH to the table. Just lost it listening to Al Trautwig fighting back tears talking about his friend. My sister has an awesome picture of she and JA at a Knick game a few years back. Said he was one of the nicest people she's ever met. I wish I could've been there with her that day. Rest easy Johnny. You'll be missed.

Maybe my favorite Knicks commentator. Loved the combo of him and Marv.

Man this makes me sad.

Another remnant of my favorite Knicks' years gone.
