Lost a sports legend...

The sports world lost the greatest winner in sports! Bill Russell died at 88 years old. R.I.P. No. 6

 

Bill Russell certainly was a dominant player who changed the game forever. RIP.

 

I remember watching him play at the old Boston Garden. He was even more impressive in person then on video. For the record - He was not the only great player on the Celtics team during that period, but he was the greatest of them all. RIP big guy.

 

RIP

 

Thats sad RIP Bill..
Eerie, I was watching game 6 of the 1981 NBA finals where the Celtics won just last week..
He was the color commentator during the finals.

 

The Celtics won something like 12 titles ‘57-‘69. Russell was a major reason for that.

 

He played for 13 years and won 11 titles! Also, His team won 2 NCAA championships while he was in college.

For the last two Celtics championship seasons he played in he was also the coach!
