Mark Price?

Yes. Never saw a point guard who combined ball handling with deadly outside shooting like Mark Price.

He was THE best defensive player all-time. And he was a decent announcer after his playing days were over. RIP, Mr. Russell.

Yes he was. Always enjoyed his commentary.

John Thompson, Bill Russell, and Jon Havlicek surround former St Joe’s star Steve Courtin at Boston Garden.

Courtin has this amazing keepsake from his 1 NBA season. Surrounded by legends.

Courtin died today at age 79

Bill Russell didn’t want his team to retire his number. This is a great honor but, I’d bet, it’s one he would’ve hated.

Very said to report that Holy Cross legend Togo Palazzi died this afternoon, four days after turning 90. He will be missed by many.

He was an icon at Holy Cross and played on the first Boston Celtic Championship team .... Rest in peace Togo !

Why do they always go to Charles Barkley for a quote?

Good for you, he was good player. Too bad he was in the same era as Black.

11 rings wow...i always thought MJ had the most rings

He got 8 in a row!

He played in an era when the NBA was a lot more fun to watch in my opinion.

He was dominant.

He wasn't as dominant as the Big Dipper!
