Jeff Van Gundy (as a NBA analyst) Appreciation

[nimo007]

I didn't realize how funny Jeff Van Gundy was until this season. Mark Jackson and Van Gundy are really funny when it comes to ex player and ex coachsituations also throw in Mike Breen its all good. It is a mad step up from Hubie Brown who i find terrible and depressing.

 

[nyk orange and blue]

appreciated him as a knicks coach and as TNT, now espn/abc

By the way, they all have New York Knick connections

 

[fede dpt]

As a Knick fan, he's appreciated in my book. I wish he'd come back.

lol Van Gundy said "You ain't from the ghetto" to Jackson last week during the Pistons game and I just found it real funny. They have some realfunny conversations.

 

[solemate96]

This dude is hilarious. There needs to be more Van Gundy and less Barry. He's a loser.

 

[nimo007]

Do you remember in the Christmas game he said, "Thats Ice Cube." Mark Jackson was all surprised. He also said, "That's Adam Levin from thatband Maroon 5."

JVG is hilarious, its like dry humor sometimes which cracks me up..... that "you aint from the ghetto" had me

Hubie FTW!!!

 

[eddiehouse5]

i like hubie a lot, however, van gundy and jackson are tops right now.

 

[jmause3]

I like Van Gundy a lot, he brings knowledge and humor to the games.

His comments during the lakers/cavs game about the leak in the ceiling were funny. The fact that it wasn't a leak but the wet clothes left by the workersand JVG just went off about changing your clothes on a catwalk and Jackson and Breen thought he was going to take it in a whole different direction.

Very good comentating group

Yeah I remember that, Van Gundy said he always listens to Ice Cubes song today was a bad day

but Van Gundy is definitely appreciated.

 

[M. Fresh]

have to agree, he is funny along w/mark jackson

 

[franchise3]

JVG is that dude.

maroon 5 always seem to come up during the games they host

and hubie brown is that dude

 

[fede dpt]

JVG + Mark Jackson = Knicks new coaching staff

 

[ballinboykz]

Man, JVG is IMO the best commentator of all out there. He adds a perspective that most people dont have, which makes him and Hubie those two guys that can addso much more to the commentating of a game.

Same thing applies to Mark Jackson. Dude adds the player perspective of a game. There are alot more players out there that can add that perspective, but IMOMark Jackson does the best way of presenting the player point of view, unlike
Reggie Miller.

The combo of Mark Jackson and JVG is the best way to get an unbiased view within a game.

Those two = Appreciated

BTW, JVG humor is dry as hell, but funny.

 

[mjdalegend]

I thought he sucked when he first started as an analyst, but he got pretty good later on with his idiotic humor along + arguing with Jackson.

 

[N41D]

Yeah, JVG > *... Listening to him, Mike Breen and Mark Jackson yesterday was hilarious.

 

[allen3xis]

I think he tries too hard sometimes.

but then again,

The Jeff I know and love has bags under his eyes, stressed the hell out with a Diet coke on the scorers table

 

[pinoy baller]

Van Gundy is the Man!

 

[ryanbbn1]

I think its kinda corny when he acts like he's mad dumb.

JVG flourishes because of Jackson, their completely opposite personalities and background helps gundy. Jackson was already a great announcer.

And yall are wildin if u think Hubie isn't good.
Hubie Brown: your favorite announcer's favorite announcer.
He has so much knowledge for the game.

 

[stringer bell 32]

Van Gundy always has something funny or glib to say

 

[rockdeep]

I thought I was the only one who thought that dude was funny for no reason. Also.. can they stop putting that female on NBA games with that other guy. THEY arethe worst. I am not sexist. MUCH...but I can't handle a woman givin me perspective on an NBA game.

Its the ONLY thing worse than Womens Basketball.

No wait.. is it that bad....

Close. lol

 

[koolbarbone]

He's good.
