Great interview, both the interviewer and Bill Russell's responses. I am not a basketball fan preferring hockey but this piece was fascinating. Good job Alan.

Another excellent article. I believe Mr. Russell was really the GOAT but don’t care to debate that subject as there are cases to be made for several. His records as the anchor of great teams speak for themselves but his style was unique. He was confident but not selfish nor arrogant and set the tone for strident advocacy that people like Jabbar continued. Truly heroic. Thanks, Alan.

Thank you for sharing this Alan. Russell was one-of-a-kind. Bill Walton had similar skills, but was so fragile.
