Lance Martinez from My Detroit Sports provides this original photo of longtime New York Knicks broadcasters Mike Breen and Walt “Clyde” Frazier, as the broadcasting pair prepped for a recent game between New York and the Detroit Pistons.

The 55-year-old Breen began calling Knicks game on the radio in 1991, later moving to the television side in 1998. In addition to his duties for the MSG Network, Breen has served as the lead announcer for ESPN/ABC’s coverage of the NBA since 2006, allowing the New York native to call every NBA Finals in the 11 years since.

The 71-year-old Frazier (sometimes called Clyde Frazier) starred as the Knicks point guard, from 1967 through 1977, winning two NBA titles (’70, ’73), while appearing in 7 All-Star Games. For his career (spent final three seasons with Cavs), the Atlanta native averaged 18.9 points, 6.1 assists and 5.9 rebounds per game.

The always colorful and flamboyant Frazier began broadcasting for his former team all the way back in 1988.
