View Full Version : Blurb from Russell

In anticipation of a Lakers win, Lakers owner Jack Kent Cooke had ordered thousands of balloons with "World Champion Lakers" printed on them suspended from the rafters of the Forum. Flyers were placed in every seat stating, "When, not if, the Lakers win the title, balloons will be released from the rafters, the USC marching band will play "Happy Days Are Here Again" and broadcaster Chick Hearn will interview Elgin Baylor, Jerry West and Wilt Chamberlain in that order." Before the game, the Celtics circulated in their locker room a memo about the Lakers' celebration plans. When Jerry West went to the court for a pre game shoot around and saw the balloons, he became furious with Cooke. Russell noted the giant net hanging from the ceiling during pregame warmups and said to West, "Those f***ing balloons are staying up there."
This is why he is the GOAT :bowdown:

Keep trying to cope as hard as you can brother. We must do all we can to deal with the fact that Bran can't win without collusions with multiple superstars and both him and his stans are satisfied with empty meaningless stats that equate to literally nothing.

Also, if you are curious about Russell, this interview is about as good as it gets. Shows you the type of mindset he had. A straight killer, always looking to destroy his opponents, which was the opposite of gay boy Wilt. LOL.

that AIDS Magic was that year's 2nd place MVP and also the previous year MVP
MJ torched Hornacek the whole time, who's a starter
