Hubie Brown, basketball coach, broadcaster and always teacher, call your final match at 91
By Brian Mahoney AP Writer Writer
Hubie Brown had just taken his first college coaching job in 1968 and did not expect him to be asked to teach too.
So, for a year as an assistant to William & Mary, he gave two elective basketball courses.
Brown, now 91 and started working on his last game as a station, never stopped teaching sport in more than 55 years since then. Only his audience grew from college students to players, coaches and television spectators around the world.
“It’s the most notable thing and it’s not a hyperbole: he probably taught more people about the basketball game that no one ever experienced,” said broadcast partner Mike Breen.
Brown and Breen will work on Sunday’s ABC telework between Philadelphia and Milwaukee, where Brown won his first NBA opportunity as a helping coach with Bucks teams with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Oscar Robertson.
For the following five decades, he would move from the coach’s box to the television table and return, gaining induction at the Naismith Memorial Basketball Basketball Fame in 2005 for his contributions to basketball.
Brown has called 18 NBA finals between television and radio for 35 years as a national television and radio analyst. However, he says he will be nervous on Sunday while doing all games, despite his extraordinary preparation that he included seeing the two teams play at least twice a week.
“You are always nervous,” Brown said. “It’s me. I don’t care anyone else. Since you want to paint the image, you want to be able to educate it on another level of expertise and realize that it is a team that does it, not yourself. “
The team, for Brown, is their partner along with the director and producer. The time they spend together preparing, as a family, reminds you of training.
Not in vain, their players recognize aspects of their training in their broadcast.
“I loved listening to him, because it was very different than any other station that was in the air,” said Hall of Famer Bernard King, who directed the NBA to score while playing Brown with the New York Knicks the 1984- 85.
“And I think the fans who love basketball, the complexities of the game, would help the viewer to understand exactly what happened and why it happened. Thus, viewers are being educated as they see the game, not only entertaining, and this was a high brand of what he did as a station. “”
Those who heard over the years recognized some of the Brown trademarks, such as calling the lane “the painted area”, and offering tips on the strategy for a team saying “what is needed.”
“My favorite is when I was very happy with a play, as I always say,” That’s it! That’s everything! That’s it! , “Breen said. “And then when he got angry, you could say when he got angry, when you don’t play the game well, only in the tone of his voice.”
Brown was so detailed in his own coach that King said the Knicks even had a specific play for when an opponent lost a free launch, named Power Right, in which the striker sprinked on the side Left, cut off the lane and publish the right block.
So when Brown was impressed with what other coaches ran, he wanted to highlight.
“This is always a tribute to the technical staff to prepare their teams and you will never want to not be able to emphasize -the fans when you see it,” he said.
Brown had no experience and had no television plans when he first approached to work in the US network in 1981. He would come back to train the following year with the Knicks, and then re -broadcast from the At the time he left in 1986 -87 season until he returned to the coach in 2002 with Memphis, where he would win his second coach prize for the NBA year.
Even when Brown finished there, he was not a coach. Breen called the NBA finals in ABC for the first time in 2006 and was nervous, trying too much the instructions to adapt their vocabulary to the spectators for the first time the event would draw.
In the first half, while Miami and Dallas were receiving their instructions, Brown gave some.
“He grabbed me by the arm, grabbed him strongly, and looked at me in his eyes and says to me,” You just have to call the game in the way you always call it and we’ll be fine, “Breen said.” relax. ”
On Sunday, it will be Breen’s turn to help Brown after a difficult year last year when both his wife and son died.
“He is not interested in the shower with love and tributes,” Breen said. “But the goal is to let the game analyze as it always does, teach the game to the viewers, but at the same time you pay the tribute it deserves, because it has given its life to the game.”
