Totally had that same thought last night. Rudy and KAT got me to cheer for Kyrie. I didnāt know that was possible

I met KAT once after game in Minny when we were playing in Final 4. He and his dad could not have been nicer peopleā¦ but I completely get your mini rant here about him on the court

Lol thatās funny because Iām the same way about Luka instead of Kyrie. Respect Lukaās game and heās fun to watch, just whines too much for me. So I kind of am begrudgingly pulling for the Wolves I guess

Thatās the frustrating deal with KAT he seems like a good guy but his game is so annoying to watch

Itās fine if you donāt respect KATās game, but donāt confuse the player with the man. Dude is a good guy and has been through a lot. I find it easy to root for him.
Kyrie, with his flat earth trutherism and love of Nazis? Yeah, not so much.

Bill was a national treasure, most entertaining man in college sports. The only reason to watch a CBB game after 10pm.

Iāll always remember Walton when he was working NBA games for NBC and after a Knicks playoff loss he looked right into the camera ans started his statement with āCharlie Ward sucksā¦ā

The ESPN series they did on him is worth watching even if you arenāt a Bill Walton fanāsome really great stuff in those episodes. He will be missed by basketball and dead heads equally. RIP Father Time.

Will always associate Walton with Steve āSnapperā Jones even though he mostly became associated with college hoops.
Of course the one Celt who didnāt show up to see the Dead was Danny Ainge. Was probably too busy at home practicing dirty plays. One time I did see Danny in NYC taking in a movie. Was he coaching the Suns for a while or something? (Got my timing off by a bit here, but whatever)
Not gonna lie tho, Iām not a Dead enjoyer but you say that around boomers and itās like you just insulted their mother or something.

Iām with Walton on the Dead not as die hard as him but they are a phenomenal act. My kids are well aware of the lyrics to Friend of a Devil agter hearing it every night at bedtime

My favorite sports bar back when i lived in Portland to watch the Blazers (and other sports) was called the Spirit of 77 (in honor of the team he led to the championship). Bill Walton was rightfully beloved in that city.
