Walt Frazier, Knicks legend and current analyst, faces a heartbreaking reality as his playoff commentary ends due to new broadcasting contracts forcing local channels to drop first-round games. Frazier, who started his career with the Knicks in 1968, noted that the playoffs have always brought him excitement and joy, highlighting this era as crucial for players and commentators alike. Though he plans to support the Knicks as a fan if they advance, he lamented losing the thrill of participating in playoff broadcasts.
It's definitely a downer, because I won't be able to experience playoffs after this season. Nothing else in my life has given me that challenge.
In the playoffs, my palms get sweaty. Memories come back. I get the chill bumps, because that's when you gain your fame.
