On a special edition of the Sports Media Watch podcast, host T.J. Rives and Jon Lewis of SportsMediaWatch.com are joined by the longtime radio play-by-play voice of the Boston Celtics, Sean Grande. In this conversation, Grande discusses the daily grind of covering an NBA team, the Celtics’ surprising turnaround last season and his unexpected journey from ABC’s college football team to an NBA broadcast booth.
Plus: he discusses what his preparation is like, his nearly 2,000-game partnership with Cedric “Cornbread” Maxwell, the pressure — or lack thereof — of calling big NBA Finals games, what he liked and hated about the remote broadcasting era, his thoughts on legendary Celtics homers Johnny Most and Tommy Heinsohn and his work on other sports like mixed marital arts.
Hear Jon, T.J. and Sean discuss it all in this wide-ranging interview for SportsMediaWatch.com, and make sure that you are subscribing to our podcast feed on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google, etc.!!
