Bill Fitch wanted Parish on the Cavs; Three years later he got Parish upon being hired by the Celtics... The rest is history.

Robert Parish was a staple in Boston's lineup for 14 seasons. As NBA fans, we all need to do a better job of appreciating all HOFers and not just the ones that average 25 PPG on 4-5 title teams.

Fitch finally got inducted during his late eighties in 2019. Quite the decorated living room this guy has...

A little bit before my time as a sports fan, but I wish Parish had stayed on the Warriors.

Interesting how Fitch was in the Finals twice...1981 his Celtics beat the Rockets, 1986 his Rockets lost to the Celtics

I grew up in suburban Houston, saw a few Fitch coached games with the twin towers (Hakeem and Sampson) or Moses Malone

RIP
