Following news that Jeff Van Gundy was part of ESPN’s recent layoffs, Boston Globe columnist Chad Finn tweets that Doc Rivers and Doris Burke are rumored to join Mike Breen on ESPN/ABC’s “A-Team” in the broadcast booth.
Nothing is imminent now, but hearing there's a good chance that Doc Rivers and Doris Burke join Mike Breen on ESPN's top NBA broadcast team next season.

The darkest timeline. Rip everyone’s ears
what the hell man
Yea when I think what would really make a great voice for TV I think 40 year long smoker
ah yes doc “gravel in a blender” rivers’ lovely speaking voice
Who tf wants to hear Docs cookie monster ass voice gtfoh
Oh dear god no
Mike breen a legend because espn gives him nothing to work with
“Top nba broadcast team”.
I think not.
Lol no way. JVG died for this?
Guess I’ll be watching national games on mute
saddling mike breen with doc and doris is a crime against humanity
Fuck me, I guess. Richard Jefferson is sitting RIGHT THERE but we gotta listen to Doc “gargles acid” Rivers instead? ESPN sucks
doc rivers has a voice made for silent films
Never been happier to get zero national games.
Games on mute are about to hitttt
I might learn spanish just to avoid that trio
Oh great now I have to listen to Doris do her fucking podcast in the middle of primetime games with Doc growling next to her.
Just thinking ab Doc’s voice makes me wanna clear my own throat
Wish a different sports network had the license for NBA games over this trash ass channel.
Doris treats every broadcast like a therapy session, I really hope this isn’t true
Well, there’s an even bigger opportunity for an entrepreneur to figure out how to sync third-party announcers to a viewer’s stream of the game much more seamlessly.
People focusing on Doc when Dorris is pretty terrible. She’s absolutely incapable of saying anything bad about certain players and she has a massive homer bias to Philly.
Doc isn’t that bad. He was above average last time.
This is what you get for moaning about JVG
Mike Breen should demand a trade
