Russell was *** great teammate and you know, it's interesting when people talk about Russell or talk about upstanding players, they like to always talk about how those players make people uh better and that is such an untruth, okay, they don't make any of these players better. The only reason why players make the NFL or the NBA *** or those teams is because they have the talent to be there after. They're they're the great teammates, the Russell's, the cozies, the birds, the Casey jones, the the people who control the ball mostly merely get the ball to these guys. So in the best position so these other players can exhibit their talents. They don't make them better. They have the talent already. That's why they're there. What they do is get an opportunity to assert themselves and that's what Russell was excellent at. He he handled the ball Cuzzi bob cousy of course was the ball handler. He would get the ball to Russell and Russell would look around and set plays and do things with the ball to get the ball to players in better positions. Now I have to admit that Russell uh if he had *** choice, he preferred to get the ball to scorers like sam jones and john Havlicek or Tommy Heinsohn, I would not be his first choice but I would not have *** problem whispering to russell or saying to him in the game or *** time out situation, Russ get the ball to me, okay, I think I have an advantage. What I would normally say is I have *** weak one and Russ would find *** way to get me the ball in *** situation where I would be able to to score or do something offensively. Defensively, he was always there to help us. He would just say send the player my way such and uh, I'll help you, but you have to make sure that my man does not score. So we worked well together. He was *** fine teammate. And after off the court we talked about our approaches to basketball to everything else because Russell was *** well rounded individual and the game was an important thing to him, But it was not the only thing that he was interested in.
