Who is a good player and is loved by fans?
Actually Bill Russell
Only answer
Bird
Truth
Kevin Garnett for me. There are probably better options here as he had a shorter time here than a lot of guys but he played with such an intense passion for the game and still reps Boston.
Derrick White
Luke Kornet
Larry Bird
Parrish
Bill Russell, or Paul Pierce are both universally loved.
Bill more so as some people didn’t like Paul’s flopping, Bill seems unconditionally loved.
Or Bob Cousy, but I’d say Bill.
Larry can’t be it, he’s sort of put the organzation on the back-burner since he stopped playing, compared to Russell.
To be fair… We should have offered him the head coaching job instead of Pitino.
I don’t have any major ill feelings for Bird, just thinking of someone who is nearly unquestionably loved, that person has to be Russell in my eyes.
I agree 100%, I’m just a bit biased because Bird is the reason I am a basketball fan.

Didn’t we already do this?
Bill Russell, Larry Bird, Havelchick
The only answer is Bird. You still go to the Garden today and the jersey you see the most besides Brown and Tatum is Bird. We will tell our kids about Tom Brady in the same mythical manner we heard about Bird and the 80s Celtics.

Tbh it should be Tatum nowadays but he’s so weirdly hated by a decent amount of Celtics fans.
KG. I feel obligated to throw his hat in the ring
