BOTSLAYER
You can be anything
Bill Russell wasn't talented enough to play in today's D-League.
You mean today at the age of 80 wouldn't make a cut? If you are considering that he must have been something special.

Mr Russell was clutch. As many Laker fans know well. He never pulled a Peyton. Passed well, delivered rings.
"Point center." Puhlease. Doesn't even deserve a response.
Magic played every position on the floor and dominated the world at age 19. Russell wasn't even the best player on his team and was largely an offensive liability but the simple-minded have deified this guy and he's enjoyed cult status because of it. It's really quite silly but BOTSLAYER, despite never having seen two full minutes of Russell play (because, well, there's nothing really to see) is now an expert who won't stop beating his drum.
