I think at the moment he's forty minutes into a five hour conversation with Jerry that's already gone off on about seven tangents.
Definitely top-4. He, Lew, Russell and Maravich have the most incredible college résumé’s.A lot of people on this forum have said they'd mute the TV when he was on. I always enjoyed his ramblings. "Have you ever been to a volcano?"
Of course he's not in the HOF for his color commentary. A top-10 if not top-5 college player and then an NBA MVP. And his injuries robbed him of what would have been an even greater NBA career.
That’s a beauty.i thought I share one of my favorite Walton Quotesc
”“In life, being so self-conscious, red hair, big nose, freckles and goofy, nerdy-looking face and can’t talk at all. I was incredibly shy and never said a word,” Walton told The Oregonian newspaper in 2017. “Then, when I was 28 I learned how to speak. It’s become my greatest accomplishment of my life and everybody else’s biggest nightmare”
RIP Bill
That game was one of the most dominant performances I've ever seen. He had four other baskets that were disallowed because they were too close to being dunks (then banned).I’ll never forget watching the 1973 NCAA final vs Memphis State . 44 pts on 21 of 22 . . Totally unstoppable.
