This guys a bitch. He's so biased and doesn't even analyze games he's just a fan with a microphone crying about calls. Such a pussy
@db_41000 8 жыл бұрын
Sure he's biased, but like him or not, you have to respect that he's won 8 championships as a player, 2 as a coach, and is in the H.O.F. as a player and coach, and DEFINITELY deserves to be in the H.O.F. as one of the great commentators, over the last almost 4 decades. Not many people in the NBA has as many rings and accolades as him.

I've gone to many, many Celtics Games, beginning when Tom Heinsohn was the coach through many other like Bill Fitch, Jimmy Rodgers, KC Jones, Doc Rivers, et cetera. Heinsohn has a terrific basketball mind and unlike many broadcasters has both the player and coaching bona fides. With that he has a terrific insight into the game to the X's and O's on the board. In his induction speech above he used Red Auerbach as an example of the type of coach and try to use the Auerbach Method. He referred to Coach Auerbach's Method to listen to players and see what ideas could be incorporated into the plays from them. He wanted all the ideas out and see how they could make those plays. Now that's a coach! He's only one of FOUR to be so honored as a player and coach!

It’s always fun to hear all the old legends of the game stories and I appreciate how they retell certain events. It’s even more comical to see comments people make because they weren’t around to see the legends play and therefore, they can’t appreciate the stories. For all you young bucks out there, never assume that the guys back then would have a chance against the guys playing today. I guarantee you, Bill Russell, Wilt, Elvin Hayes, and Cowens, would outwork and outplay most of the young centers today!

Tommy Heinsohn known as abrasive and biased by most non-bostonians, dedicates his Hall of Fame speech to Red Auerbach. A real class act the game will truly miss. RIP
