Somehow, we are blessed to have legendary Boston Celtics floor general Bob Cousy still with us as he dives further into his ninth decade revolving around the sun. In those nine decades, few members of the wider Celtics constellation of former players were a closer teammate or friend of Hall of Fame big man Bill Russell, save perhaps iconic team president Red Auerbach (rest in peace!).
To help memorialize his legendary friend, who left us on July 31, Cousy sat down with WBZ Boston’s Chris Tanako to talk all things Russell for a recent clip hosted on the station’s official YouTube channel.
To see the talk for yourself recounting how the two Celtics immortals connected on and off of the court, take a look at the clip embedded below.
