OMG...Red Auerbach died! (1 Viewer)

I guess the only good thing about death is that it is universal.

Although I'm a Laker fan, I'm pretty bumbed about this.

Red, you were hell on earth, but you got your wings now.

Say "hi" to Chick for me.

His legend and legacy will always remain with us. May he now be blessed with eternal peace and happiness.

Just in case you've been living on the moon
the past 50 years, this is Red Auerbach...

Auerbach won 938 games with the Celtics and was the winningest coach in NBA history until Lenny Wilkens overtook him in the 1994-95 season. As general manager, the straight-talking Auerbach, who celebrated victories with a postgame cigar, was also the architect of Celtics teams that won seven more titles in the 1970s and 1980s.

The only other coach in basketball history
that has done what Red did is John Wooden.
There are no other peers in this group.

From Cousy...

To Bird...

To a marriage made in heaven..

WTF! How'd he get in there? Alright,

...to a marriage made in heaven...

Never heard about him. His family name seems to be Jewish so I'll say: Baruch Dayan Emet (Blessed is the true Judge).
