Tell me about it. I came of age as a Celtics fan while K.C. Jones was the coach. He's always been my coaching touchstone when talking about the Celtics. Much like everyone has their 'Doctor' in Doctor Who, K.C. was my Celtics coach.

Not being talked about much in all the obituary pieces is the 2 plus seasons he spent coaching the New England Blizzard, the Connecticut based women's pro team in the American Basketball League. The record wasn't great (43-54) but it was a coup for the league at the time.
