I remember him with the Nets. Did he coach them when Hinson was there?

You don’t need to report every death. It’s morbid and weird and you should act like a mod.

First head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers franchise and 1981 NBA Title winner with the Celtics. 🕊

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Will always fondly be remembered for '81

Saw him coach several times with the Cavs and Celtics at the RAC in the late 70s/early 80s, then with the Nets at the Meadowlands. Helluva coach. Always got the most out of the talent he was given.

R.I.P.
