You've got that right. He was my age. Athletes are like roman candles.
He sure made things good in his day. I kinda like that he went doing his sport.

I pretty much can't stand Boston, but Dennis Johnson, Parrish, Bird, McHale, and Ainge were a fascinating bunch.

There's something about a long swoosh shot from way outside,, a long range bomber.. usually dead-eye on.. sorry to hear of his sudden passing.

A key member of Seattle's only championship team, over the Bullets in '79. That was a great bunch of guys.

Without D.J., we wouldn't have our only major championship in Seattle.
RIP Dennis Johnson.

I grew up watching the great Celtic teams of the 80s. First Red and now DJ.
Aw man, it feels like I lost one of my best friends...

He was about the only NBA name I knew. He seemed like one of the good ones. That's too bad.

Memories of The Steal, from a Pistons fan. Those were the days when teams had personality.
