[Spurs9]

Who wants to see him call some spurs games

Bill Walton talking for 30 minutes about the '77 Blazers instead of commenting on the game that is occurring directly in front of him right now

Only in retrospect. It's painful to hear that live.

[Ball Buster]

great human being. I wish I was more like him IRL. I have family members like him in spirit

[Clipper Nation]

I wish he still did Clippers games with Ralph. Mike Smith is insufferable.

Definitely the GOAT color guy. I loved when he would spend the entire telecast ting all over Olowokandi.

Though I am still kind of pissed at him for saying Kobe was making the twin towers look like the twin sisters in game 1 of the 01 WCF.

He was kind of loitering the SLA during their heyday when Gates told him to walk away from it. About a week later they burned them down.

[Fabbs]

Anyone got any Bill Walton signed stuff?

'Twas the summer of '85 when the Lakers spurned an offer for Walton.
Followed was a phone call amongst Billy Walton, Red and Larry Bird. Result was one of the GOAT 1986 World Champion Celtics. We wouldn't see another like them for decades.

Only the death of Lenny Bias and Stern riggin the rest saved the rest of the 80s from a Celtics sweep.

Agreed. Magic never gets that hook shot either w/o the phony call to give the ball to the Lakers in the first place.

No. The Laker hit the ball from behind. Even if he hit it very technically off of Kevin's hand, that call was routinely made in favor of the team with position in lieu of calling cheap fouls.

Did he say D flat? It's E flat but not sure what he actually said. Either way, he couldn't finish his thought because the drugs were kicking in.
