RIP Bill Russell

[ChristianPatriot]

His days in the NBA were way before my time but anybody with 11 championship rings has my respect.

RIP #6

Back to back college championships, an Olympic gold, 11 NBA titles in 13 years with 8 in a row and 2 as player/coach.

I still argue that he's possibly the greatest of all time if winning is your main criteria.

What a basketball legend. Always seemed like a very humble man. Some say greatest of all time and sure is in contention with that spot for sure. But still gotta give that GOAT to Dennis Rodman so far.
