He prob gets so much nonsense for things he says that he’s nervous to say something that would offend a player/fan etc. Mike Breen is everything right with this world. Amazing human.

      - One of the best blocks in history b/c it gave Lebron a title in CLE (and shows that he was always a DPOY candidate)
      2. Ray Allen's shot deflated the Spurs so that in the following the year, Spurs rock Lebron-Wade. Thus breaking up Miami's team. Best revenge game in the last 30 years.

    @greg2797 Год назад +66

    That Ray Allen shot was definitely the greatest clutch shot i've ever seen. The way he backed up perfectly to the 3 point line in the corner without stepping out of bounds or stepping on the 3pt line without looking down... You could tell he practiced that a lot. It's funny tho that shot seems to overshadows a lot of stuff that happened lol Like LeBron scoring 16 points in that 4th quarter alone, LeBron hitting a clutch 3 right before that to cut the lead to 2, the fact that Ray's 3 tied the game not won it so there was an OT where LeBron went off both offensively and defensively. And then the fact that there was still a game 7 they had to win that was also a close game and LeBron took over with clutch defense and and offense while icing the game with 2 FTs.

    My wife and I were at the airport during that 2016 Finals game. The captain was pleading with everyone in the plane to turn their devices off so we could leave. NO ONE listened. After the block happened the whole plane was filled with oooh and ahhhhs. After Cleveland won the entire plane was filled with cheers lol. As a 76ers fan, I think everyone was a Cleveland fan that night. I will never forget the captain words after the game was over lol “ok, now that that’s over, can we please turn our devices off, push these tray tables up, and put our seats up so we can get you guys to Baltimore” 😅

    When you think of all the current, well-known play-by-play announcers for every major sport, Mike Breen has definitely proven to be the one that fans like the most. For every other major sport, it seems like fans either hate the most well-known guy, or they're torn between two or three of them. The best example of that I can think of is Joe Buck and Al Michaels, when they do football games. Most fans just can't really stand Buck, but Michaels isn't exactly a great alternative, either.

    I remember game 7, 2016 finals like it was yesterday.Because I was up for 2 1/2 days hyped up on adrenaline for that game.i had my food ready . Ice cold orange soda. Next thing I know,phones ringing,I answer it, my neighbor is screaming "Cleveland beat em, Cleveland is the champions,oh my god." Yes,that's right, I had been up for about 2 1/2 , Days and went to sleep during the pre game 😩 However,thanks to my neighbor,I did enjoy the post game trophy presentations and,speeches. Microwaved my food and carried on. Watched the game later that day,since it was already after midnight by then.

    Ray Allen's shot also changed basketball. The Spurs were forced to go all-in on their offensive strategy, which worked to perfection in the following Finals. Steve Kerr took inspiration from that Spurs team and ran a movement-heavy offense with the Warriors. And the rest is history.

      It is so overrated, especially because a much more clutch play happened just after. It’s not hard to jump, but it is CLUTCH to hit a step back, contested, 3 pointer to win a finals series. Lebron can jump, but he would have NEVER hit that 3, it’s all because of Kyrie.
