  4. Bill Russell is the only answer here. Respect Bird, but it’s always going to be Russell

  7. KG. Won thw chip in his 1st year and waived his no trade clause to be traded to the Nets that ultimately got them JB and JT

  11. Russell started with a chip and ended with a chip ad player/coach. Does not get any better than that.

  15. Paul Pierce. Drafted 10th, was instantly a star. Then was our only AllStar player for like a decade before the trade. Won a championship and is still hanging around showing up to the games. He was traded for what got us Brown and Tatum. Everyone loves him. Whereas Bird wouldn’t be caught dead at a Celtics game. Gorman’s alltime favorite player.

    But you could also say Russell, Cousy, Havlicek.

  17. Tommy Heinsohn for runner up.  Won rookie of the year (over bill russel), named an all star, won the chip his first year. it would’ve been sweet for the jays to win one for him, but it’s hard to argue he didn’t go out on top seeing this current generation rise

  18. Russell but he should get a separate square that is “Started Great, Ended Great”

    Just calling him “good” is not enough but I guess it’s what we got.

  25. Honorable mention to Mike Gorman- championship in his first year calling games in 1981, and finished off with another !

  27. I was going to suggest Pierce but you really can’t argue with the goat William Fenton Russell
