Hall of Famer, former Knicks broadcaster John Andariese dies at 78

I always liked him. Another part of my past, gone.

Wow..Rest in peace..Breen just mentioned his illness a few days ago..

RIP I always liked his insights to the game.

Wow. Sad news. Breen was talking about him over the weekend. I always enjoyed him as well.

Always a good fellow to listen to. Seems to have had a good life and thats all you can ask. We all just run out of time.

New York City boy...could hear it in his voice...got to admit that I like local guys announcing for us when possible.

Johnny Hoops

Class guy, true gentleman. Always a pleasure listening to his insights.

grew up listening to him. class act. RIP

Sad to hear of his passing. He was one of the good ones.

RIP Johnny Hoops. I grew up watching him and Marv broadcast the games on MSG.

He, Marv and Clyde are the voices that are the the foundation of my Knick fanhood. RIP Johnny Hoops.

Sad news about Johnny Hoops. He was a great broadcaster for the Knicks. Really liked him.

i loved how he was so classy. in the 90s, the knicks used to play some unaesthetic bully ball but johnny hoops would call the games (and the hard fouls) as if they were intelligent classy plays

RIP Johnny Hoops

We all grew up on the guy.... 40 years in the business. #rip Johnny Hoops

Unbelievably sad. No better color commentator ever as far as I'm concerned. He brought SO MUCH to the table. Just lost it listening to Al Trautwig fighting back tears talking about his friend. My sister has an awesome picture of she and JA at a Knick game a few years back. Said he was one of the nicest people she's ever met. I wish I could've been there with her that day. Rest easy Johnny. You'll be missed.

Maybe my favorite Knicks commentator. Loved the combo of him and Marv.

Man this makes me sad.

Another remnant of my favorite Knicks' years gone.

Had a tape of him at half-time on the radio...He was doing an interview...Great to hear his voice.
