Mike Gorman, the voice of the Boston Celtics on NBC Sports Boston, was not permitted to travel to Atlanta for the first round of the NBA playoffs due to a detached retina he suffered a few weeks ago.

But during his weekly segment on Toucher & Rich, he announced he will in fact be traveling to Atlanta for Game 6, which will take place tomorrow at 8:30PM.

• TRANSCRIPT:

  MIKE GORMAN: Yeah, well, I’m going to Atlanta. Sorry, Jon.

  JON WALLACH: Mike, I was torn but I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better.

  MIKE GORMAN: Thank uyou – But the reason I can go is that the gas bubble that they insert into your retina, once it breaks and breaks down and goes to zero, you’re okay. That happened to us overnight last weekend. All of a sudden, I woke up on Sunday morning and the bubble was gone. It’s kind of become like R2D2 to me. You know, It’s always right beside me walking around. I was just get very used to it. But it’s gone. And I made to go back to work.
