#shorts #handles #streethoops Bill Russell vs Boston Sportswriters #controversy #vote #allstargame

Full Video Here Fam: https://youtu.be/_xuj5hYp6A0 Russell said he never would have played in the NBA, if St. Louis were to draft him. And Boston Celtics coach Red Auerbach wasn’t letting that happen. The Celtics were the first to draft an African American player, 6 years earlier. They were also the first team to play 5 African Americans on a team. Auerbach traded up to number 2 in the draft with the Hawks, to land what his team had needed to reach the next level. The Celtics already had the best passer in the league at the time, Bob Cousy. They had just gone 36 and 36, 3rd in the East, and lost the Eastern Conference(Division back then) Finals to the Syracuse Nationals. Red Auerbach said he doesn't know what Russell does, he'd never seen anything like it, so he couldn’t make him any better, he was already a goat. Russell added 14 points per game his rookie year, and 20 rebounds a game(19.6). This was a huge advantage, the rest of the league couldn’t match up with Russell, and defensively he was cookin’ everyone. Not to mention Russell and Cousy decided to create the outlet pass, scoring at will with the first fast break in the history of basketball. Russell would tell everyone to run to the other end of the court as soon as their opponent shot the ball, because Russell was almost always coming down with the board. It took 7 games, but Bill Russell and the Boston Celtics had won their first title. (1957) Not the first dynasty the NBA had ever seen, with George Mikan taking that title in the early 50s winning 4 titles with the Lakers He became the the first African American coach of the major leagues in 1966, and won 2 titles in his three coaching years. (first African American coach in the four major American sports leagues.) https://www.mercurynews.com/2022/09/07/oakland-school-community-remembers-bill-russell-says-his-generosity-will-continue-well-into-the-future/ The night before game 7 of the NBA Finals against the Lakers, Russ had been out at a bar when a fight broke out. Bill tried to break it up, but in doing so accidentally gets stabbed. Luckily Bill Russell was an absolute psychopath when it came to wining. He showed up with his stab wound, played the whole game, and won it and the title. In his entire career, Russell faced elimination 30 times. In those 30 games, he won 28 of them, and only lost 2. He had the Michael Jordan, or Kobe mentality before we knew what that was. Russell/Wilt Rivalry//Friendship And that Bums and Heroes mentality of the media would be how they framed basketball’s biggest rivalry of the time. In the 8 playoff series against Wilt, his team only won once. Bill’s overall record against him was 86 and 57. Wilt was taller, bigger, and stronger, but Russell had that psychopathic winners mentality unmatched in sports at the time. They put their friendship aside in 1969, as the Lakers and Celtics once again go to game 7 in the NBA Finals. Russell had a plan, he and Cousy would fast break the Lakers to death. Which worked great, as the Celtics were up 17 going into the 4th quarter. Conclusion In 1975, he would be inducted into the Hall of Fame. But he protested it, saying several African American players should’ve been inducted before him. He always stood up for what was right. When Boston retired his jersey number, the crowd gave him a standing ovation. But he didn’t acknowledge them, after all the city had put him through his career, the city didn’t like that at the time, but later he would come back for another ceremony where he’d acknowledge the crowd Bill Russell retired in 1969, at 35 years old. He won 11 titles, averaged 15 and 22 a game, and won 5 MVP’s in his career, 12 time all star won 4 rebounding titles 11 times made all NBA, and is one of the greatest athletes to walk the Earth.
