During a live NBA broadcast, Doris Burke drew attention with a peculiar historical reference regarding the rivalry between France and Germany while discussing players Rudy Gobert and Isaiah Hartenstein. Her remark prompted playful confusion from play-by-play announcer Mike Breen, who questioned her intent. Additionally, some viewers reacted negatively on social media, with comments highlighting the awkwardness of Burke's statements. The incident underscores Burke's polarizing presence as a commentator, particularly among some fans who have taken issue with her previous remarks.
Burke said during the game, "And I don't know much about history, but I know the French and Germans don't like one another. And Rudy says, 'Bonjour, Mr. Hartenstein!'"
Breen interjected during Burke's comments, inquiring, "What are you trying to start here?" leading to confusion.
