Come on, how can there not be more love for the guy who came up with this quote?

Quote from: Ed Macauley
When you are not practicing, remember, someone somewhere is practicing, and when you meet him he will win.

Sounds like a precursor to an apparent KG quote that I came across the other day:

"They say no matter how hard you work, there's always someone, somewhere working harder then you. Guess what.. I'm that someone" -- Kevin Garnett

K.C. Jones

The underrating of K.C. Jones continues.
Thereīs noone left who has won more titles. Heīs a HOFer. He won titles as a player and a coach. I know some people say the Celtics won the championships despite Jones, but really, title is title.

I just donīt see how Ed Macauley can be placed over a guy who won 10 titles with the Cīs, and led the team to 4 NBA finals in 5 years as a coach.

Because Macauley was a superstar, and Jones was a role player.

Yes, Jones is in the Hall of Fame, but doesn't that have more to do with his teammates? 

I mean, there aren't a lot of other guys in the Hall of Fame who averaged 7.4 points, 4.3 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 64.7 FT%, and 38.7% FG% over the course of their careers.  Sure, he was a good defender and a good "glue" guy for a lot of championship teams.  However, I think numbers do matter to some extent, and Jones' don't add up.

Iīm sorry for the delay.
Iīve lost my internet-connection, and have no idea when Iīll get it back.

This means we have to stop with the poll for a few days.

We will continue when I have my connection back.
