I WRITE THIS WITH TEARS IN MY EYES BILL RUSSELL IS THE REASON I'M A CELTIC FAN AND HAVE BEEN SINCE 1966 AND GREEN IS MY FAVORITE COLOR... YESTERDAY THE WORLD LOST THE GREATEST WINNER AND RESPECTED MAN IN ALL OF SPORTS!!! RIP MR. WILLIAM F. RUSSELL... THE ALL TIME {CHAMPION}😔😔😔
I'm a lifelong Laker Fan...with that being said Bill Russell the man and player I am a huge fan of.
When Bob Cousey started to cry "we could have done much more to ease his pain" that moment of realization hurts me as a sports fan that Russell moved to Redding Mas and they treated him and his family so poorly. Kids these days need to take note of men like Mr Russell
I'm in tears. The world is diminished in so many ways by Bill Russel's passing. An example to all of mankind of how to not just play basketball but how life should be lived. You are loved and will be missed, Sir.
Bill Russell was the greatest to ever play the game. The fact that one cant put anyone above him without first tearing him down is testament to that.
RIP to the Greatest Winner of all-time. Mr. Russell will be missed
This world lost one helluva man..RIP Mr. Russell..
Rip
RIP MR RUSSELL
I have watched my last LeBron Vs MJ debate, Bill Russel is the GOAT.
Hey i can't denie that
Talk about recency bias
As a Celtic fan, today is a very hard day. Rip to the Captain & greatest winner Ever! #6 ❤️
I am here today to pay my respects to Mr. Russell. He was a tremendous player, and an even greater human being. R.I.P

“I believe sport is a mixture of art and war the media treats it as bums and heros”
Wait hold up Bill Russelll played a game
7 after getting stabbed 🤯 and won a chip
2:55
This is a must see.
Bill Russell is a humanitarian! He really liked people, and that's why he never signed autpographs.
Bill was a great man who played basketball. He was a giant on and off the court.
I didn't realize he just retired out of nowhere.
he would have definitely won more if he just kept playing.
42.7 minutes per game in his last season with no drop off in production.
that's disgusting.
I purchased a throwback jersey of BILL RUSSELL from his college of San Francisco
Very interesting
Didn't know much about Bill Russell - thank you for this documentary 👍
Rip mr. Russell. Best center ever ❤. A legend. Sad he went through what he had to. As hard worker a person who speaks his mind
TRUE PIONEER & FINALLY ‘ HE HAS HIS FLOWERS ‘ THE WORLD NOW KNOW ‘ THE #GOAT OF ALL SPORTS ! ☝🏾🏆🐐💎
This is great.
The Real GOAT
R.I.P legendary Bill Russell6
Rest in Power, Bill Russell.
Rip no6 bill Russell 11 rings in 13 yrs
His legacy, besides his winning pedigree, should be greatest defensive player ever.
Whatever he lacked on offense, he made up for on defense.
Imagine Dennis Rodman, on the Bulls, but Rodman was 6' 10 and could jump out of the building
Too bad he brought a great winning tradition to a city that, culturally, didn't deserve it
greatest defensive mind ever in NBA,see i never played..great LEADER..INTELLECTUAL
Imagínate lo grande que fué Bill Russell que ganó el doble de títulos que Jordan.... y no hizo tanto espamento ni abusó del esfuerzo de sus compañeros para creerse el mejor... el verdadero G.O.A.T.....
Heavy
Ps Much Gratitude
The 🐐
The GOAT Champion Team Player🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀🏆🏀
RIP Bill Russell. I hope your opinion of heaven has changed. I hope that it is greater than playing for the Boston Celtics! May you be reunited with your friend and coach Red Auerbach, Wilt Chamberlain, and your former late Celtic teammates
RIP dear Bill Russell!
R.I.P Legend
Imagine throwing these prima donnas players now in a time machine and setting the time at this era
13:04
San Francisco extended that streak to 62 the following year, after Bill retired.
STILL the second-longest streak in Division I Basketball (behind the Walton gang at UCLA with 88 and AHEAD of Kareem's team at UCLA with 47).
R.i.p to a great man
Rip to the 11 time champ
R.I.P The Lord Of The Rings 👑
🐐
Bill Russell and wilt chamberlain are the greatest basketball players of their time in the NBA.
Rest in paradise
In this time only we know who the real hero was
11 rings on 10 fingers.
The guy would get so focused he would vomit, man I wish to one have such focus minus the vomiting.
How the hell did he get 11 😮 like will anybody ever break this record? Will we ever see it happen in our lifetime?
Some players dream to win just one he won 11
Never judge a man unless you have walked in his shoes.
The 50's and 60's were a different time in america.
🙏
RIP 📿
Well look how he was treated......I'd be defensive too!
Listen, Bill Russell was not the first Black American to become a coach. It was John Mclendon , who coached the Cleveland Pipers of the defunct American Basketball Association.
Referring to the four major North American sports leagues (NBA, NHL, NFL, MLB), was actually FRITZ POLLARD who was the first black coach for four NFL teams during the 1920s. Most folks don’t consider Pollard as the first because the NFL was in its infancy then.
Beautiful, so American....
I would never have hired him to COACH my TEAM,and HE was my FAVorite player once,,but he SKIPPED practices,how could he be a great COACH.
☘️
2nd and the only
Here after news bill died
Acting like Wilt Chamberlain was five or six inches taller than Bill Russell ridiculous
4 inches and 50 pounds
First 😁
Lebron, Kobe?? LoL 😂
Michael, Magic and Russell!!!!
So this is the plumber that they claimed wilt played againest, Lol
Lebron is a very small man compared to Mr. Russell and will never be in the same conversation.
;)

How this great man took all the racist treatment is beyond me. THAT'S WHAT MAKES HIM SPECIAL! A SPECIAL MAN SELECTED BY GOD HIMSELF TO DO HIS WORK. I WILL SEE YOU IN THE RESURRECTION MY DEAR BROTHER! GOD WILL WELCOME YOU WITH OPEN ARMS AND HE WILL SAY TO YOU MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT WELL DONE! GOD SELECTED A TRUE WARRIOR WHO DEFEATED HATE AND RACISM. I WILL DO THE SAME!
During those days whome do the media perish the white dude not the black dude mannnnn
Russell has 10 championships not 11
I thought he won 11 Championships in 13 season's?...
I think that it is 11 rings.
Your name shows your true character sir! # CHEAT- IM! # A boston fan... not a BLACK MAN FAN!💯
He won 11 and it should've been 12! He got hurt in the finals against St. Louis up 2-0.
He won NBA championships in 1957, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1968, and 1969. It's 11 titles that Bill Russell has won. He and the Celtics lost to Bob Petit and the St. Louis Hawks in six games. And they loss to Wilt Chamberlain and the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA semifinals in 1967.
ANOTHER FACT: Bill Russell has never averaged less than 20 rebounds per game in any of his playoff career. Never!!!🏀
And a lot of those were democrats bill Russell
