    I am from Mississippi and the Knicks were my team in the 70's.I saw them play 1 time live in New Orleans against the N.O. Jazz and spoke 2 him as they were coming on the court and he was nice.He thanked me after i told him that i enjoyed his book."Life on the Run" was the title and good reading.😊

    Bill's own book Life on the Run is one of the best sports books ever written.

    Bill was one of the greatest college basketball players ever. That reputation enabled him to develop slowly on the Knicks. Most college players are not given the same amount of time to make an NBA team. Bill turned out to be a very solid pro.

    I remember when he was running for the democratic nomination , back in 2000, vs Gore; his campaign had a fundraiser in the Garden, with all former teammates and competitors in attendance, in support lke chamberlain, havlicek, west , oscar robertson, russell, rick b.; He would have made an excellent president, always the optimist

    Imagine how good the Knicks would be with the 3-point shot. Bradley. DeBussere. Lucas. cazzy Russell. They would have filled it up.

      ❤️ NBA basketball without the 3 point shot, or 3 point land

    My friends nicknamed me Dollar Bill because I liked him so much and those special Knick teams. This was during a special triple sports championship run in NYC. Football=Jets Baseball= Mets Basketball =Knicks

    This personality of each member of this team should be modeled more by the new teams of New York.

    I voted for him in 2000 against Al Gore. He would have won against W Bush.

      Yep. About the Oxford-Cambridge varsity basketball match he also was quoted in saying the following: "In the 14 March 1966 edition of Sports Illustrated, NBA Hall-of-famer Bill Bradley said in reference to The Varsity Game: "'This game,' remarked Bradley, who flew back from playing with the Italian Simmenthal team in Milan the morning of the event, 'is the only one I care about.'""
