What the hell does that mean? Why wouldn't I take him seriously? He's certainly being serious. So I have to disregard him to think he's not annoying? Yeah, that goes without saying.
vvaannddaallll You would expect no less from a home commentator who has played years with the team. He's not much of an analyst, but he's pretty much a fan with a microphone.
vvaannddaallll He has been with the celtics organization for 60 years, hes a huge fan obviously hes going to be biased. Hes won 8 championships as a player, coached 2 celtic championships and commentated the rest after being done with coaching.
Damn rip Tommy! First thing I thought about when I heard of your passing☹️ will miss those great memories with my dad and I listening to you and mike Gorman!
So what? He's a hall of famer who spent his entire career with the Celtics and won 8 championships while making 6 all-star teams. Plus, he's smart and hilarious. Most beloved announcer in sports right now.
This was during that period of time when officials were caught gambling on the games. I checked and the main official who got popped for it wasn't reffing this one, but this is probably evidence that he wasn't alone.
Sorry I'm 6 years late but Tim Donaghy claimed he never bet on his own games but the other refs were so crooked that'd who he bet on. Joey Crawford hated Tim Duncan and his grandson was a big Allen Iverson fan, so when Philly played San Antonio and Joey was the referee Tim would bet on the Sixers. I can't name any NHL or NFL official apart from Ed Hocchuli and I only know mlb umpires because they occasionally throw people out of games but when fans go "oh no it's Scott Foster/Tony Brothers" thats how you know a league is rigged
Tommy is such a class act, he calls it like he sees it, and is always fair and unbiased. I wish he would do national games, and the finals. I...lovvvee... TOMMYYY!!!
RIP Tommy, you were the voice of the Celtics my entire life and watching them will never be the same, no one loved the Celtics as much as you did and I know you'll be giving Tommy points and yelling at refs from above.
The best thing about basketball is that they have let people from the local markets do the commentary. Boston especially is good at getting having the biggest homers do the job.
Heinsohn didn't get kicked off. He got demoted to the third team after the 1987 NBA Finals, pairing with Verne Lundquist for two years and then future NFL studio host James Brown in the final season of the NBA on CBS. NBC then declined to offer him a job as an analyst for reasons known only to them, probably to distinguish themselves from the NBA on CBS.
The same referee that called 5 technical fouls on the Wolves when they played against the Spurs! I don't blame Tommy not one bit. That official is horrible along with Joey Crawford.
they gonna call it a hard foul... THEY GONNA CALL IT A HARD FOUL?! lmao
HAAAAD
THESE GUYS ARE RIDICULOUS!!!!
rip legend best commentator ever 😢
I have never enjoyed listening to a man commentate a game as much as him. He truly was the best ever
Watching the Celtics on tv will never be the same again. Rip
Amen to all of this. Tommy forever
RIP Tommy! You're the only person in my book who could get away with yelling at officials.
This announcer has me dying of laughter. "He walked. HE WALKED! WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH THESE GUYS!?!?!?"
RIP LEGEND
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

@@greysonG10 you're gonna call Tommy Heinsohn a horrible commentator? YOU'RE GONNA CALL TOMMY HEINSOHN A HORRIBLE ANNOUNCER??!?!!
Rip
i'm a BAHAMIAN, he will be miss Tommy Heinson,
@@Gunner192 THIS IS ABSOLUTELY… RIDICULOUS
Tommy is the man. He is only annoying if you take him serious. He is hilarious otherwise.
What the hell does that mean? Why wouldn't I take him seriously? He's certainly being serious. So I have to disregard him to think he's not annoying? Yeah, that goes without saying.
knicks fan i take him serious and i love him
FACTS 😂😂😂
@@cjinl2428 You just have to be a Celtics fan to find him hilarious.
@@cjinl2428 Although I will say, he was pretty mad here. Normally he's just being sarcastic.
Tommy is by far one of the best announcers in the history of sports. He speaks the truth 100% and with passion too.
the truth? the guy is fucking biased.
vvaannddaallll You would expect no less from a home commentator who has played years with the team. He's not much of an analyst, but he's pretty much a fan with a microphone.
vvaannddaallll
By that, I mean, leave him the fuck alone, because he has the right to vent it all out.
vvaannddaallll He has been with the celtics organization for 60 years, hes a huge fan obviously hes going to be biased. Hes won 8 championships as a player, coached 2 celtic championships and commentated the rest after being done with coaching.
He's a biased piece of shit
I love you Tommy Heinsohn. Living legend. So glad the Celts won a title for him to see last year!
Damn rip Tommy! First thing I thought about when I heard of your passing☹️ will miss those great memories with my dad and I listening to you and mike Gorman!
god bless Tommy.... I still expect him to get called with a double technical and ejected one of these days...
Who’s here after hearing the news :(
heinsohn is the best announcer. I love his old time stories about when he played. plus I love when he goes crazy lol
He's been like this when he started coaching in 69'! What a character. Go Tommy!!!

EGarrett01 no that was 2001 this is 2008
Nah Vin Baker played for the C's from 02-04' so it was during the height of referee scandals
Sorry I'm 6 years late but Tim Donaghy claimed he never bet on his own games but the other refs were so crooked that'd who he bet on. Joey Crawford hated Tim Duncan and his grandson was a big Allen Iverson fan, so when Philly played San Antonio and Joey was the referee Tim would bet on the Sixers.

Miss Tommy…… the best and my favorite athlete/announcer of all time (Remy is a close second)
I love his play by play.
merry crimace.

1:58 mob ref asking mob boss what call to make next

This is an OG youtube video. One of the best announcers of all time!
Lakers fan here but we definitely miss old timers like Tommy, No nonsense guy, how the game should be played
Never heard of this guy until today, but I LOVE his passion! I wish he replaced Steve Buckhantz for the Wizards

Tommy is such a class act, he calls it like he sees it, and is always fair and unbiased. I wish he would do national games, and the finals. I...lovvvee... TOMMYYY!!!

I don't understand why the Refs would tell him "merry crimace"...
Watching the Celtics won’t be the same
Its not loyalty, its stupidity.
they are gonna call it hard foullllll....
Mary Crimos.
Not a Celtics fan, but I love Heinsohn! Seriously, biased announcers can be so funny!
Sounds like Fred Flinstone. "Barney, my Pebbles!" LMFAO!
RIP Tommy, you were the voice of the Celtics my entire life and watching them will never be the same, no one loved the Celtics as much as you did and I know you'll be giving Tommy points and yelling at refs from above.
hell yea....i love him
R.I.P.!
Rip to a legend
Rest In Peace tommy😔
One of my favorite Whiner Line opens.
Tommy can say what he wants. He has the rings and a place in Springfield that allows him to say what he wants.
I love Tommy he's the best
The best thing about basketball is that they have let people from the local markets do the commentary. Boston especially is good at getting having the biggest homers do the job.
I like this ESPN background music.
has tommy heinsohn ever been ok with ANY call that didnt benefit the celtics?
Yes listen to his commentary in the 80s
No never ever
maybe when hes doing national games in the 80s, but you can feel the disdain
Gotta love Tommy.
RIP Tommy
Get em' Tommy!
We got #18 Tommy!!!!
HE WALKED!! HE WALKED!!!!
Pierce walks to start the drive to the hoop.
Heinsohn didn't get kicked off. He got demoted to the third team after the 1987 NBA Finals, pairing with Verne Lundquist for two years and then future NFL studio host James Brown in the final season of the NBA on CBS.

The same referee that called 5 technical fouls on the Wolves when they played against the Spurs! I don't blame Tommy not one bit. That official is horrible along with Joey Crawford.
i love the last 5 seconds of the video who is he talking about
i thought barkley was the only nba commentator that drank before work until i heard this
They're gonna call it a hard foul... THEY'RE GONNA CALL IT A HARD FOUL!!!
ROFL...HE WALKED!!!!
GOAT
get em a wheelchair. 🤦🏻♂️
Rip Tommy, its not a Celtics broadcast without Tommy going off. "Waltaaaaaaaah!!!"
The video clarity seemed so much better at the time, looking back on it, it's not much better than the mid 90s lol
love you forever Tommy
RIP Tommy🙏🏾🙏🏾
HE WALLLLKED HE WALLLLKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RIP Legend
