Lakers/Rams fan since the 70's. Never liked Celtics and still do not care for them. But Russell passing away makes me a little sad. Too young to have seen him play or coach but enjoyed his commentary and personality over the years as an NBA analyst. I just saw a small story about how they drafted him and racist stuff he went through, interesting read. Will have to e-book his bio one day. Read a bunch of sports bios back in the day, Jim Brown's was the best. I think Russell's will be really good. RIP #6.
