This was the best. Bill Walton was an amazing man. Not just a legend basketball player. RIP.

It has to be the most surreal day for Carlisle, remembering being on a championship team with Walton and the Celtics, before coaching to try to stop them from advancing to the Finals.

RIP Big Red. Thanks for the touching words Rick.

I've always been a big fan of Bill Walton, the more stories that are coming out, the more of a fan of his whole way of being. His book Back From the Dead is an amazing and inspiring story. The 30 For 30 on him is the best in the whole series. And his throwaway mention by Kareem in Airplane is one of the best lines in the whole movie. He was pretty good at basketball as well, as Kareem's line attests. Fare thee well, Bill.

The 1986 Celtics were the most fun team to watch probably in NBA history. MJ was great and the Bulls but the chemistry on that team will never be matched.

The Celtics played the game the way it is supposed to be played, where brains outweighed athleticism, and us Celtics fans loved it every game.

I've watched every video they've had about Walton's passing. Everyone paying tribute to him comes across as 100% sincere. You have to believe that Walton was a great human being. I'm a Sixers fan, so it took me awhile to warm to him, but I certainly did. Were it not for the injuries, he absolutely could've been the GOAT.

@lloydbonafide3398I wouldn't doubt it a bit either. I remember and Bill Russell's first autobiography, Go up for glory, he said there were times he felt the Celtics deserved to lose, even though he had to help him win. He said he couldn't admit that to his teammates, cuz he had too much influence on the team. And Wilt said something similar a few years later. When the Lakers played the Bulls in the Western conference playoffs. The Lakers came from behind late in the fourth quarter. Wilt blocked a couple shots, Goodrich got a key basket or two. But Wilt said The Bulls out played the Lakers the whole game up until then and he felt they deserve to win. So yeah you're probably right.

Why does this video look so damn good. The lighting is amazing. Is it just because of the HDR?

The way Rick was describing that 86 Celtic team with Bill Walton, he was there, he practiced with real legends and incomparable with today's lousy teams. Sure there's a player here and there like Kawhi when he's healthy but the players generally suck. The watered down rule changes. Not the same.

Great stories. Lots of great players in their era. But….none of them would be playing in today’s NBA. It’s simple evolution. They aren’t as big, strong, fast, agile, can’t jump with those T’Rex’s today. They wouldn’t make a team.
