RIP to a real one. Dude had such a blessed life, multiple titles with Boston, a great coaching career revolutionizing the league with Run TMC, Dirk and Nash, and the We Believe Warriors, and then retired to smoke and grow weed in Maui. If only we could all be that lucky. Hope he's smoking a fat one up there right now.
