Listen "7. Bob Ryan talks John Havlicek and the Celtics"
Episode Synopsis
Bob Ryan knows a thing or two about the Boston Celtics. The legendary Globe writer started covering the team in 1969 and was there for their run at banner number 12 in 1974. The insights and stories he has of Dave Cowens, Tommy Heinsohn and the guy on the cover of the 2/18/74 issue of Sports Illustrated, John Havlicek are both entertaining and informative. His knowledge is 2nd to none when it comes to the Celtics and the NBA in general. Join us for a fun hour of hoops talk as we look back 50 years ago to when the Celtics won their first NBA title without Bill Russell.
