    Another Celtics legend, was the perfect coach for the Celtics after Bill Fitch was let go for being too strict.

    Jones told a story years ago, couple seconds left, Celtics down 1. In the huddle he starts to diagram a play, and Bird says "we don't need a play, KC, just get me the ball and tell everyone to get out of the way."

    Jones said: "Larry, I'm the coach of this team. OK, here's the play, In bounds to Larry and everyone get out of the way."

    Coached during the best NBA ERA Ever. If he didn’t have to deal with the sixers and lakers Boston might have won 5-6 titles in the 80’s.
