Tommy Heinsohn Dislikes Kobe Bryant, Phil Jackson

Heinsohn, the Celtics’ resident homer, not too shockingly gives both Phil and Kobe 0 Tommy Points. From the Boston Herald: “Heinsohn was very unhappy that the Celtics lost, and displeased, as well, that certain people got to celebrate. ‘Kobe (Bryant) and Phil Jackson, I didn’t want either of those guys to win,’ he said. Why the dislike for Bryant and his coach? ‘Well, first of all, I got tired of listening to Phil Jackson create the atmosphere around the referees to watch this and watch that,’ Heinsohn said. ‘(Celts coach) Doc (Rivers) didn’t do any of that stuff. And Kobe, on every play, if he didn’t score he was bitching about getting hit. OK? The two most protected players in the league don’t need protection – LeBron (James) and Kobe. But Kobe, I don’t know how many times he went up in the air and came down, walked, and then passed the ball, and that never got called. And he was shooting elbows at the defender to get him out of the way. Now you know why I dislike him.”’

    tommy justworried that the lakers are gonna overtake the celts as the dominant franchise in the nba. Ofcourse in 2008 nobody was complaining cause the were gettin away with basketbrawl. It was time to put up or shut up and I don’t hear thecelts singing we are the champions. It reminds of the days when the lakers brought in some guy with horned rim glasses to do the dirty work and won some championships with him. Funny how history repeats itself.

    larrylegengend cries about blubberless celtics cuz Perkins couldn’t roll onto the floor, well, the Lakers have been dealing with an injured center named Bynum for 3 years…versus your 1 game…and in my opinion, the team that is short a player usually pulls it together and wins, because it throws the other teams plans out of whack. Your old celtics just choked because of alzheimer’s they forgot to win the game that they easily could have…how many points did the Lakers score in the first half???? Your green blooded slimers choked, and what is Heinshit known for as a player???? Individually???

    Tommy, you have always been a fat, and not very good basketball player. I have heard your comments during NBA telecast of Boston games. You cry about every thing that goes against Boston. So don’t cry now because those creeps lost to the Lakers. And be thankful you played back in the days when there were only a handful of teams, otherwise you could not make it in today’s NBA. So keep your big FAT Mouth Shut.

    Rivers wound up crying more than Phil. And did it look for a single second like any player or team was getting special treatment in that series? The answer is obvious. Tommy is just a joke. I can’t get over the fact that the Celtics organization keeps such a ridiculous homer in their announcers booth. That should be embarrassing to every Celtics fan and the organization.
