ABC broadcasters Mike Breen, Jeff Van Gundy, and Mark Jackson gave Celtics announcers Tommy Heinsohn and Mike Gorman a shout-out during Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat on Sunday.
First, ABC presented a graphic showing the list of all-time NBA Finals games played. Celtics Bill Russell (70) and Sam Jones (64) lead the pack. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (56) and Jerry West 55) are next, then Heinsohn and LeBron James are right behind them at 52 apiece.
Breen, who does play-by-play, carved out time to praise Heinsohn for his NBA resume.
