RIP Bill

Insanely sad.

I remember him as a Celtic. Obviously his media career is huge but I loved him as a Celtic

 

[Archie]

greatest grooviest Celtic ever

 

[roguejuror]

he's the guy in the silhouette of the nba logo?

 

[Archie]

no that's Jerry west

 

[FairWarning]

Injuries really ruined his career right from the start.

 

[Shortstop]

I know many disliked his broadcasting. I actually loved it. He was a straight shooter and told it like it was. Perhaps one of the best basketball players ever. I didn’t know he was sick. BILL WALTON .. RIP 🪦

hampered maybe

but most ruined careers from start don't get an MVP and all time top 75 listed

He really wasn’t a top75 player. Even in his two best seasons, be missed 15-20 games each season. If they had a top 100 players today, would he make it? Missing four years does matter. He was pretty special though.

Yeah when I heard he was named to that team, I was surprised.
