European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - June 12, 1987, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Friday june 12, 1987 the stars and stripes Page 23 commentary we heard Hearn but not the most this Aba final could be been the greatest. The greatest since 1985, anyway. That was the last Vear we heard the lakers Chic Hearn and the celtics Johnny most go one on on on the radio dueling voice. Then wat Hearn milling about magic Johnson to going up the court " there was most croaking about Dennis Johnson fiddling and  we could be heard the Best radio play by play men every night of this lot Angela Boston series. Thai s normally the Beauty of the armed Force radio and television service. It relays radio from All Over the country which gives to the unique experience of listening to Heam one night the Phillies ii pet Harry Kui the next and most the next this time arts blew it. Yes armed Force radio carried Hearn for the three games in Boston. But no most instead of carrying the celtics legendary announcer for the games in los Angeles arts picked up the Abc radio team of Fred Mann and Dick Ylitale. Boo. Manfra Vittle can t go one on one against most not even two on Coe. When Lipoff time is 3 am Here in Europe and you need someone to keep you awake you want most. Most is the Guy who barked Havlicek stole the  the 196 playoff line that most rivals Russ Hod Jet giant win the Pennant explosion after Bobby Thomson s Homer in 1951. Most is the Guy who made More radio history iwo weeks ago with nit what a play by Bird after the Boiton Forward s clutch steal helped beat Detroit. Maybe in was that very celtics pistons series that doomed most from going on arts airwaves inthe final. He went bonkers ripping Detroit Center Bill Laimbeer for slamming Larry Bird to the door. If you believed most Laimbeer was a vulture preying Bucky Fox on Bird forget that Bird had tired the Ball at Laim Beer. During the next break arts announcer Ken Allan tend to smooth Over most s ranting. Allan sounded concerned that Detroit fans might gel upset Over this Boston Homer. Arts probably figured most hurried off Loo Many listeners so go with easy listening Manfra. The arts sports department denies that explain ing that it prefers to use network feeds thus in took Abc for the games in la. Rather than the celtic announcers. Then Why did the lakers Hearn do the games in Boston and not the Abc team because says arts he s such a popular announcer that it would be a shame not to use him at least in three games. Keep in mind that arts is headquartered in the los Angeles area. And that Hearn sometime refers to the lakers and armed forces radio basketball network and that during game 4, Hearn peddled Sears savings Bank and Taco Bell and Continental airlines without being Cut off arts nor Mally shut off commercials. One Point Here is that  arts likes  Chick Heam. Which is Fine because Hearn it the Best. Another Point Here is that  arts gave Boston based most and most fans the Shaft which is a drag because most is almost As much fun to hear As Hearn. I used to hate most the Way i hate All Boston learns. His Cigar Lle throated celtic biased voice urged me to toss my Panasonic through the window. How dare he cough on my kicks. Then i awoke. The Guy s entertainment. When Johnny most talks i listen. When abcs Manfra goes Middle of the Road in Mosi s place i listen for awhile then turn up the to. That s exactly what i did when the final opened in los Angelea. When the series shifted to Boston Clang to Chick Hearn by radio and watched by to. Thai s not easy 10 do. Arts delays its radio broadcasts seven seconds so you re hearing the description Well after watching it. Heam i Worth it. His fast break delivery mirrors he team he has described for 26 years. No wonder the lakers feature him on the cover of their Media guide rather than magic Kareem or worthy. Heam on a worthy Basket a series of moves. If that were a clinic you d have two  Heam on a worthy Block he sent in Back air mail without a  Hearn on . S deficit late in game 4 if the lakers Ever had their neck in the Guillotine it s now look up at thai Blade. Man it s shiny and Sharp unlike most Heam praises the enemy Bird comes through like the great ones  and spanks his own team horrendous defense. No one helped  like most Heam Razies the enemy  s a Lousy Rotten play. Kite and i m nol a vindictive person deserved what he  that bit came after James worthy threw a punch at Greg Kile who was t the one who tripped the Laker Forward. Dennis Johnson was. Hearn corrected himself after taking a break a break Dur ing which arts Allan injected it would be interesting to hear what Johnny most had to  i hear you.
