    What I loved most about Mr. Russell was the wisdom, the knowledge, and the stories he imparted on those who knew him. I love that video of him sitting down with KG and speaking to him like a grandson and in KG's eyes, you could see the amount of admiration he had for Mr. Russell. The man was an activist and an icon is every sense of the word. May God love his soul and may He be with his loved ones at this time.

    A great basketball player but an even better humanitarian! One of the greatest winners of the league and one of the most successful careers in basketball history.
    The amount of racism and other things he had to suffer didn't stop him from speaking out and standing for what is right!
    The NBA will definitely miss him. No matter what his place is in the all time rankings, his stance for civil rights means that much more.
    One of my favorite memories is when Mr. Russell during one if his last title runs and he was interviewed after the game, and he got emotional. Such a great moment from a great man.
    One if the most unselfish superstars of all time.

    NBA players of today find themselves doing the same but are told to “Shut up and dribble” and it’s applauded by many.
    Beyond boxing and beyond basketball, the struggle still continues and Mr. Russell stands tall as one of the first Athletes to do so.

      Well you probably will realize by now that many people will think you're comment disgusting! mentioning Henri Richard at the same moment at the death of Bill Russell that's like going to somebody's funeral and talking about somebody else how dare you! And even if you wanted to do the disgusting thing and compare championships Henry richard took 20 years to do what Bill Russell did in 13 so you put them in the same breath is diluting the accomplishments of Bill Russell or trying to puff up Henri Richard at a inappropriate time! you really messed up this time buddy really messed up you better pump the brakes next time on that kind of talk!. And don't try to excuse what you did with some lame excuse the best thing you can do is apologize or just be quiet because you're silent will be definitely to the whole internet! Maybe it's best for you to even delete that comment if you had any kind of humanitarianism in you which evidently you don't!

You're silence will be deafening because you have been served up on a platter! And you know it! So if you're so lonely that you can't think of anything else to do but be the defender of the stupid maybe you can consider getting yourself a rescue dog maybe that'll keep you occupied. Surely you're one of the people Bill Russell spoke about so you shouldn't be commenting at all okay 19 60s Boston fan?

    Bill can really score too if he really wanted to when I was checking his college stats but he was all about doing what's necessary to win and to win at the highest level. He was a team first player superstar and then if he had to take over at times and go hero ball then he would but Bill Russell was so much more that just a pro basketball player..
    Bill's career in some ways reminds me of Duncan's career, to great very selfless superstars and there is other selfless superstars I could compare in some ways to Bill.

    Not saying it's right but when athletes want to make s big deal about a water bottle being thrown at them or yelling something foolish things from the crowd, take a look at what this man went through and what he accomplished while dealing with all that. That's a true hero and role model.
