"Completely how the game of college basketball has played. Right. I imagine every other team is like, we need a Bill Russell. The bad news there, of course, is that the Dons have the one and only. Oh yeah, I do want to be fair to the block list Bill Russell here, but the changes that he put into motion because he was in constant motion, this was a real thing, like rules were actually legislated. Yeah, after that season, it became the Russell rules where they changed established rules in the sport just because this one man messed it all up in one season. So one thing that they changed was the steer shot, which is basically tipping the ball back into the basket within the cylinder, so that's now offensive goaltending. So couldn't do that anymore. Right. Why Russell was jumping so high that he could steer the ball downward into the hoop, which everyone realized, like, that seems unfair. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we can't just let the 16 guy get away with that. The next thing was, why didn't he lay from 6 feet to 12 feet? Because again, he would just stand there and steer the shot into the basket. And then the last one, which is very, very unique, I think, to USF, was that you could no longer inbound the basketball over the basket all because farmer and Russell had this kind of one two game that they would do. He and I actually worked out a plan back in that time or I would shoot the ball over the backboard on a out of bounds and he would grab it and Duncan. And then they changed that rule and you couldn't take it out underneath the basket anymore. That's great. I love that. It's hilarious that Bill Russell and this guy would just essentially put it where no one could touch it. Over and over again. But by the next season, the element of surprise, of course, was lost. Not only are the rules different, but everybody is expecting this, yeah, game changing figure to be as good as anyone they've ever seen play basketball. And so how did year two go? With the Dons. Yeah, in my story, I compare it to rocky one and rocky two. An original rocky, you know, he's a little buff, but like he's, you know, he's every day, man, so he's not too cut. And then in rocky two, he comes back, cut his hell. And that is exactly what the Dons did. They started off the season winning their first ten games by average of almost 18 points. They're closest win was 7 points over marquette, and that's the closest they would come to losing until Bill Russell left the program. There's no competition for them. So with that in mind, woolpert put them in more established, more competitive tournaments outside of the West Coast conference. One of which was this holiday fest tournament at Madison Square Garden where they went up against holy cross who had a star in Tom Heine, who would be a future teammate of Bill Russell's with the Celtics, riot. Russell scored 24 points and grabbed 22 rebounds against them. The coach from holy cross says it's going to be a pleasure to play Tommy heights and against Russell. And we kicked their butts. So that was kind of rewarding. And actually Bill got a laugh out of that one. It was better competition, but not that much. So by the end of January of that season, they pulled off 38 consecutive wins, which was at the time one win shy of the record 39 wins in a row. But then the shenanigans started. What kind of shenanigans are we talking about as the Dons and Bill Russell are on the doorstep of breaking this record? So before I got to 38 wins, it was understood that seton hall and Long Island university both won 39 consecutive games. And that was the record. But suddenly when the Dons got to 38 wins, now seeing hall and Long Island university, one 43 games in a row. Wait, what? What do we got out to that point? Yeah, you heard a lot about the streaks. That actually was a benefit for us because it gave us a challenge. And that was something that we didn't have most of the year. It was a challenge. Now we got a goal. So the downs are like, all right. Let's win 5 more. And so when they got to almost breaking that record, suddenly Kansas state teachers college of Pittsburgh had won 47 straight games from 1929 to 1930. Wait, so it has to be very blunt about this. They went back in the record books and revised made up. How did they justify why these numbers were suddenly bigger and therefore, yeah, not quite as breakable by Bill Russell. Well, Pablo, this was a 1940s and 50s and 60s. They had to justify a goddamn thing. They just did it. Yeah, that's a good point. Which means I guess that they could just keep this sort of racket going for as long as they wanted to. Oh yeah, I didn't say that to say that it's stopped right there. The USF broke that record in one 48 games in a row. But then out of nowhere, a school called Peru state teachers college won 55 straight games from 1922 to 1926. I'm sorry. That school just seems fake though. That's just, I refuse to believe that's an actual school. No, man, it's the bishop sycamore of the 1930s. This school didn't exist, and if they did, they were playing middle school teams or something like that. This is fake news. But wait, but the point is that the mark is now 55 wins. And so to get there, what are the Dons need to do? They would have to not only win out the rest of the regular season, but they would have to run the table in the tournament as well. So basically when two championships in two years, that's the only way they were going to master record, not even break it, but match it. And the reason why the record became so contentious and all these new schools started being added, doctor kazusa has a theory of why that might have been. Part of it might have been to reflect some of the doubts about USF, that we're still around in the mid 1950s. Because they played it unusual style because they're superstar was someone who people were still trying to figure out. And because they were primarily African American team at a time when college basketball was a predominantly white game stone. And so in March of madness starts, how good was this predominantly white game at? Yes, finally figuring out how to stop Bill Russell. I can walk you through just how dominant they were. They play at UCLA in the first round, beat them by 11. They play Utah in the next round, beat them by 15. They play SMU in the final four, beat them by 14, and then in championship game against Iowa, they beat them by 12 points. Yeah, damn. That's not close. No, not at all. And Bill Russell was a big part of that. For instance, in the championship game, he had 26 points, 27 rebounds. And again, they didn't tally block, but let's just assume he had ten of those too. It was just, they were unstoppable at that point. It was just a machine. Yeah, I'm doing the math on this, and they get to 55. They get to 55 by winning the championship a second year in a row, but notably, importantly, they don't break the record at the very least Bill Russell personally does not get to break that record. He ties it. Right, so he gets drafted by the Boston Celtics sometime after that, so he's not gonna be around for that next season to see them actually break the record, which they do. They actually even push the record to 60 consecutive games one. It changes the entire trajectory of the school, starting with the fact that now they have a home gym to play in, which is called war memorial janae's in which they still play into this day, the homeless Dons were no more. He changed his entire game a basketball, became more vertical. It became faster. It became all these things just because of Bill Russell. And Mike farmer was there. He had a front row seat to it, and

"I love it when bob Jeff talks about John McLeod in the 76 Phoenix Suns, which we all know had a tremendous series against the Celtics. Alvin Adams in westfall and Ben R Dale and that whole crew right there. But what I love is the fact is bob Ryan covering the sun's state of Paul westfall's house. Now, can you imagine today today? A member of the media staying at somebody's house who they were covering it. I mean, it's a lightbulb.

You know, and I'm not apologizing. I never made an apology for that or any other friendship I made in basketball and sports. And that's but that's probably the best personal friend of ever made of an athlete. And when he was traded just so happened, my wife and I and Mike lublin is then date had been a dinner in westfall's house in Needham about two nights or the night before he found out he was traded. Damage is coincidental. We had no idea. He didn't have any idea. Nobody had anyway. Yes, I did. I stayed at westfall's house at 5 52 west berridge lane, Phoenix, Arizona. With the swimming pool. And here's my favorite store anecdote about that. So with the time zone difference in an off day, I would be writing and by be done by like three time, you know? And so you head to the pool at westville. Alvin Adams was a neighbor, and he would be over there and maybe somebody else. And then there was this other guy that was the 12th, the 13th man on the 12 main roster. The guy left off the active roster. And he was looking and he was happy to have somewhere to go hang out, you know, his name was Pat Riley. And so we were sitting around a pool day after that. Yeah, no, I stayed at westfall's house and the cookie breakfast did a cookie breakfast. Why don't we remember what the Cindy? I'm sure, you know, we had breakfast. I don't know.

To their success he was a significant rotation player. To a team. That i think probably outperformed that a roster a few different times by making it to the eastern conference finals and they were right there you know and he was a guy getting big minutes on that team and so i always been smart fan. I am a marcus smart fan. How could you not be a huge you grit and grind. That's what marcus smart is right. Symbols qualities that you know self expands have long loved loved with both tony allen. You know who helped bring that to memphis the all time. Tommy points leader rest in peace time. He really might be the all time leader itami points. Lord knows. tommy tommy heinsohn man. I miss listen. South extremes with my dad watching tommy heights. It's the mike orman the smart. Oh my god he love marcus more. You know what i mean anyway. I think you'd probably get the best of marcus smart and it's not a it's not a crazy contract it's not. It's not a crazy contract and even if you are thinking we want to use him as a piece. I think you need to get the best of marcus you know. In order to make him. I think his stock right now is nearly as high as it could be. Because he's got a lot of fans around the league but he also did not have a good season and they didn't have a good season last year right. There was a lot of people that truly fell in love with marcus. Smart where they were making those eastern conference finals appearances and he was making game winning plays at the end of playoff games. Like that's the kind of thing that they did last year was just a. There's a disaster. It'll be interesting to see. How with. Dhaka how i ooh what the offense looks like. It looks like and how balanced responsibilities orcas you bring back al horford as well. Who's going to be getting some of those touches some facilitating opportunities around the elbows from the perimeter I i wonder like what is marcus. Smart swirl gonna look like. I would assume he's going to start over schroeder You also have josh. Richardson in the mix there. Now as well peyton pritchard. Who's hab an awesome awesome. Summer league grabbed that. It's just summer league But he had a great rookie season as well as late. first round. Pick so you get a lot of guards in that backcourt nevermind. Tatum and brown.

The book is a twenty five. You're like i regret not saying anything. Yeah you came back. Should i tell my boss should i. You know who. Should i tell and i island up the take an easy wrote telling. Nobody the lakers atwill. The celts aren't even supposed to be in there. The four seed. They you know the last team into make the playoffs and in the lakers are chasing these ghosts and they find. There's one other thing. I wanted to add a will. 'cause i kept thinking about this that you wrote about g retired after his third season in the nba. First season after his first season go he was going to call it quits because they were. They were punched him. You know And actually i played golf the other day with it with this kid that that that sat right behind right right right right courtside because the local team was in high school tournament. He was down there and the kids speak. Memories still talks about a gym loss. Qaddafi just punched wilt chamberlain stomach for the entire game just every time. The referee china's back. Jim lusk atop just punched him. And and that's why. We'll let the game before the game that i saw as a as a sixteen year old high school good will wilted hit tommy heights and in the head you know and and hurt. His hand did nothing to hide since headbutt her said it was a physical tough world that he e- inhabited and he didn't like it So that's why announced he was going to retire. But but but money talked. I guess that's right. So he makes it another Another decade plus But in nineteen sixty nine. This was billed as russell chamberlain. But when you go through the boxers we'll has four points in the second game of the series lakers get the first two. You're like all right you know. Look the lakers of the better team jerry. West is in his prime eligibility a little bit older. Still really terrific. Johnny egan who you know has a new england background and everything has some big games Can you help us understand. That didn't get to watch it. Live and live in the moment. Because i remember like out. I'll share the story that my father has chit bought me a wilt chamberlain. Vhs was this weird deal and it was him being interviewed at some city playground. He was in this slick track su. He looked great in. The interviewer asked without bill russell and wilt so dismissive of bill russell. He's like he had the better teams. He always had the better teams which is true. But you know goes compared like man to man. He's like there's no comparison. There's none there's none whatsoever but people always looked at will is kind of you know if we had a modern day version of will it would have been whoever whoever's the number one option maybe a you know obviously a future hall of fame you just never trust in the playoffs. And that's kinda who will was so. How did that russell will think. Play out because physically the talents. I think anybody would still say it was will. But russell's argument was always there is a mental part of it. He did not have that. i had. I could always exploited. Minute wasn't just about my teammates. That's how it's always been described to me. That's how i've always read it. But what was it like actually watching it. Yeah i mean. Russell i will. I mean the truest thing i say in the whole book is in the in the little afterward by what happened to guys after since we'll play there's been no clear and it's really been compared. They said they'll be. This is an another wilt chamberlain. It's been no player. That's come along shaquille a little bit but it was a far more polished all around kind of player and had far more control of his body. Kill so well. It was just overpowering russell. Just out thought manatt worked and i don't know you wilt. Sugar should've should've just overpowered them. Every time but will just disappear. I mean they win. The first two games and the the celtics you know kinda echo the second the third game and in the fourth game comes down to a shot at the end and and and all of a sudden it's best two out of three and the spotlight's on wilt again you know. How good is he going to be h. He was good in the in the next game. The fifth game but then kinda disappeared For the last two games did you sense it. Could you feel it being in the locker room. Show going in because i want to ask you about game seven. Obviously here. But this whole moment jerry. West lost five times in the final sear. The celtics the lakers can't get him. you know they. They can't get him all their championships. Right minneapolis so the lakers thing that yeses the franchise that moved a. I know what. It's like to have. Been a red sox fan. When i was a kid and just expecting doom when it was the yankees aaron boone in two thousand three hundred shit again. You know like. I'm sitting at home watching that my apartment on and i wasn't surprised by the in like i knew it was going to happen. Because that's all i ever learned and it feels like that's what this was like for. That lakers team could you. Could you sense that. Even though they were the better basketball team well jerry. West was just an interesting study. I mean he he just kinda worries is hard on his slave so to speak you know he. He was just out there and and he talked about his frustration. He'd lost five finals to these guys and And they'd broken his he was mr cluj. You know That that that was his that was his name on the radio and mr clutch and he was clutch except when he played the celtics in these final games and he was like sir galahad or or some kind of some kind of night out there defending the city but but it all fell apart in the end and and when when they won the first two games like overjoyed you could. You could just sense that but he was scared at the same time because thanks. That always.

"Where unlike middleton i feel like middleton like booker like chris paul knows where his spots are breaking roll and i think drew was kind of taking what the defense gives him and i think that just that just puts his sons defense especially eight. But i mean they're all kinds of their conservative and deceptive. You know they want you to take. Low percentage shots. So they're going to try to go into those And withdrew going the row of okay. Let's he's kind of just seeing how much closer he can get to the rim essentially and that's just a great way miss layups over deandre eytan essentially. That's kind of. That's kind of what's been happening to him. All series as opposed to like you know middleton just being a little bit more methodical. But i agree with jackie honestly. I just think he's doing a law is the set. This is going to go six. At least it might go seven. I think you wanna use him to just try to wear down chris. Paul and booker in whatever you can get from him like considered a bonus but honestly like it's like what you said. Jackie when you have when you have that type of mentality or shooting stroke or whatever you wanna call it Maybe it's just a moment of self. Del like whatever it is. You can't guarantee that that guy is always gonna be consistent. Like i don't really necessarily want to be running much stuff for him Honestly i would lean if you need to lean even more heavily on middleton and pick and roll like. I feel like that's a big reason. They also didn't turn the ball over very much He was just he was just really good in it So yeah. I think don't know i just i just feel like drew. Holiday deserves a bit of a defense. I get that. He's not shooting well and everybody is kind of focused on that. But it's just he's doing so much like full court press in the nba finals for a whole game. Like try squatting down that low for like for like five seconds you know like for me five seconds but like it's just yeah it's it's it's really incredible. He's also he's creating a ton of points with his steals like he's he's creating good offense for them. It's just not in the way that you know Chris paul or booker or middleton does sense sear. it still hasn't been line for finals be potentially with two big games may be st. I had a. He was nine to one before the finals. But it does seem. I guess jaanus or booker now. The way this series is yeah. Those would be yeah you to candidates. Hey some folks are quick to doubt the rookies or even understate. Their excellence their playoff series. Make no mistake. This is their time to shine and show out with career defining moments on that court. Here's a famous on minna. Go way back for your thinking about. Overlooked rookies Tom heinsohn who passed away recently. legendary celtics announcer hall of famer really great underrated player but as a rookie. Nineteen fifty seven celtics. The celtics had never won. The title goes to a game seven against the saint. Louis hawks bob cousy is terrible. Bow cousy goes to for twenty. Can't make a shot. He got bill russell. He's a rookie. Not totally an offensive player. He's only scored nineteen They need a hero. And who's the hero. Holy cross his own. Tommy heinsohn rookie puts up thirty seven points. Twenty three rebounds seventeen for thirty three Was awesome and fouls out in double. Ot what happens to this game goes to double ot heinsohn vows out. Famous shot of him crying on the sidelines. Can't believe he found out at the celtics end up winning the game in the last minute. They win by two. He gets carried off the court. There's a famous photo of him All these people surrounding him. It's one of the great rookie moments of all times in the finals. You heard about magic in nineteen eighty heard about some other ones but i think that was the first great one and that's a wrap. Just like these rookies like tommy heights at one on the court you can win with your insurance getting the personalized service of a local agent offer. Surprisingly great rate with state farm like a good neighbor state.

"Michael in Della E. Don't know what it is about that. Voice. It just doesn't take its great exactly written. It's accurate. Yeah, I guess that's what it is Okay to the parade today, Mitch. That was great power. No, I didn't say that about boat. And I go to YouTube. Where do you get it? Tom Brady had a little too much, but I think at the end of the boat ride, they had help him off the boat. Good. That right And yeah, and he throws the trophy from one boat to another toe. Grok was on another boat. And if it misses how did you think those waters in that in that river or lake wherever they read, it would have to go 20 trials. You two head. Whatever room there on. It's just It was crazy. When the Charles River route I would have been a Charles Boston. I No kidding. Oh, my God. Wait, wait. Whatever they were all just shoot me now. Probably the bay. Maybe the pillow, but my butt didn't drop. What you're saying the only rock Carter's Grant caught it, But I'm just saying that Mrs Man, we have any sound of that. No, there's no if people taking it from the shore, Whatever videos of you have to go. We have videos. I'm trying Put it on the base. Okay, But at the end of the boat, they have to help. Time off. Time was a little. They said Maybe it was being seasick. But I think it was a slow. Yeah, you can. Little bad. Give me a little seasick and come, you know, his blood's got to be 100% on all that stuff. He takes you on a year, Probably over here with beer. We're probably knocking about that severe, Probably by the way, Speaking of Tom Brady, and we're gonna play that Mary Wilson cut that we have for you from an interview we did with her not too long ago, just a minute, but I don't know if you saw this, but Robert Orry who played in the NBA for a bunch of teams, six shot, Bob, uh, tweeted out that he was welcoming. Tom Brady to the seven ship Club ship being the short words that I first heard, Rasheed Wallace say for championship, the seven chip club. After Grady has now won seven Super Bowls, and Robert Horry points out that he's won. Seven NBA titles. Too, with Houston. Three with the L, A Lakers and two with the San Antonio Spurs. So He kind of liking himself. They both had super or Spiderman outfits on in his little tweet, and he's like pointing at him and he's got Robert or he's got all of his trophies. And then Brady's got his trophies. And of course, people jumped all over him and said You're not on the same level, buddy. You're good, and he took offense to it. And and and he starts writing. You know this whole big defense about how he deserves to be justice considered Justus much, You know, a great seven time championship guys. Tom Brady. He writes. A part of you gets mad because I don't think people outside the MBA family and when I say MBA, I'm saying coaches and players and by the way, no, no good ever comes from a sentence that begins that way. People outside of the embassy family. It's always bad, they don't really respect. Couldn't believe there's a word like respect being used. I haven't ever heard that word used in sports. They don't really respect what I did. And they don't really understand what I did and what I was able to accomplish. It's always Oh, he was a part. Oh, he was a part. Yeah, I was a part, but I was a significant part. You can't have Kool Aid without sugar. And I was the sugar to most of that stuff. I see. Okay. May I also say to you, Robert, that you can't have Kool Aid without cooling and Tom Brady was the actually the cool Late. If you were the sugar, you can find a sugar substitute, But you can't make Kool Aid without actual cooling. I was the craft the cocaine. Yeah. Somebody throws him the ball out of the top of the key, and he hits a shot. And then suddenly he's Tom Brady. Okay. Did you just go get loaded on the boat? It seems to be all the rage didn't come off the bench most of his career. Yeah, the last half when he won the title. He was always a nice guy business. The contributor, though you are, I was absolutely a contributor. But he's not the same know Tom Brady to his sport. I didn't gain plant run. James can make that kind of thing. You know, we have a rabbit or a, you know real Jackson. Forget Kobe a shit. We gotta get Robert Horry for bringing Grandma wants to be called Kurt King Kurt now, so soon? Yeah. There were a lot of guys who played on the Celtics, who won more than seven titles and, you know, seeing Tommy Heights and not, but yeah, I'm not talking about Bill. It can make the claim that he's up there with Joe Studio, but they're a bunch of other guys sat Sanders and some of those other guys, Sam Jones. So during a time out, all right, forget and who's gonna be garden worry. We gotta talk about weight. So we were. We were so saddened by the news of Mary Wilson's passing, of course, one of the original Supremes back when they were the primates. 1959. She was one of the one of the three Andre We had a chance to talk with her on our program, little ways back, and we thought we'd share a little bit of that with you right here. So much shit.
