Good stuff Bills. I have never read the book but I remember Earl vividly. One clip that comes to mind (on an old NBA greatest moments VHS!) is when Bill Walton was complaining about a foul call when he was a Boston Celtic. He continued in Strom`s ear as he took the ball out of bounds, only Earl and Walton were In the picture. While running down court together, Strom bellowed at Walton, "just shut up and play basketball you big baby". That was classic Earl Strom!
