Listened to the audio book about the Celtics “Wish it Lasted Forever”, by Dan Shaughnessy, while making the long drive to the Villages last year. Lots of great stories about Bill Walton, including taking the team (without Ainge) to the Dead show at the Worcester Centrum and bringing the team backstage to meet the band.
