Bill Walton was bigger than life and he will be missed by many

Great story on Bill Walton from John Wooden

“He told me after his player of the year and national championship season I didn’t have the right to have him wear his hair shorter. I said that’s right, but I have the right to determine who plays, and we are going to miss you”

Can ruin someone’s reputation
