    RIP Tommy Heinsohn

    He was before my time as a player and a coach for the most part, but as a commentator he was priceless. He was the ultimate "homer" Celtic fan. He made me laugh and I will miss that for sure. RIP legend!

    What a guy. He was himself, the one and only. Large as life and just a character. RIP.

    Heinsohn and Hubie Brown are the best color guys ever. With a shout out to Van Gundy, and Walton for about a minute and a half.

    Growing up he was always a guy I loved to hate. RIP
    add Phil Jackson, Don Nelson, Greg Popovich and even Red Holtzman to the colorful coach list.

    Bill Simmons talked about him a bit on last pod. Sounds like he left a good mark on things. Never really knew much of him unfortunately.
