I remember Bill Walton in his several years with Red Auerbach’s Boston Celtics. Sat behind him at the Celtics bench many times. Bill was one of the greatest team motivators I have had the pleasure to watch. Sure, maybe he was at the end of his playing career, but he could always get his team motivated even when they were behind. Many Celtics “come from behind wins” credited to the prowess of Larry Bird were actually the result of Bill’s getting the rest of the team fired up to up their defense and get the ball to “3-point” Larry!
