People hate him.. I find him immensely enjoyable when the games outcome isn’t in doubt

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Met him years ago when he was the guest speaker at the SU Sports Auction.

Gives a great speech.

“Have you been to Turning Stone?”

Love that!

 

[tbonezone]

he did commit the cardinal sin of calling the game with 10 minutes left but..".spokane ? so you've been to the palouse falls ?" and good thing for him we collapsed like a lawn chair

I like him a lot. He’s a different cat but he’s very funny to me and in a game like this he makes it watchable.

Same, dude was one of the best ever to play and injuries kept him from being in the discussion of being an all time great and he could be incredibly bitter. He loves the games, but he also doesn’t take the game too seriously even with his extremely high basketball iq. Some of those stories take weird twists but I like it.

Have you been to Turning Stone Stoned?

Have you been to Turning Stone Stoned?

Have you ever gotten Turning Stoned?

People hate him but I love him. Always have. Yeah, he obviously loses focus and talks about so much unrelated to the game but he clearly does know the game and is actually ridiculously intelligent.

96 ish time period? i have a mug in my office from that event. I purchased via auction that night:

1. Melvin Tuten's football sneakers
2. the Elimu Nelson 1994 uniform (thus the handle)

I own the worst collection of SU merchandise ever.

Guy's a national treasure. It's a "you" problem if you don't agree.

Well that settles it. You're definitely not a dude named Eli Munelson.

Enjoy Walton a lot. Pasch there would've been hysterical, minus the game part.

 

[dasher]

Can't stand the guy. Never could.

 

[Eric15]

Recently I rewatched the Lakers/Celtics 30 for 30. I literally LOLed at Kevin McHale talking about how for like 3 years after 1986, whenever Bill Walton would answer his phone he would say "hello this is Bill Walton of the 1986 World Champion Boston Celtics."

 

[Newhouser]

Can't stand the guy. Never could.

I agree. Obviously in the minority but he thinks he's the show and provides absolutely no basketball insight which considering he was one of the smartest players ever...its nuts

 

[richmondcuse03]

I know folks who run into him quite a bit at Dead / Phish shows. He’s exactly as advertised. Just vibing and enjoying life. Can’t blame him. He’s one of a kind.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

What happened to Walton? Appears he’s in a wheelchair…

I’ve seen him call Clippers games within the first 10 minutes. Team goes up 8-0: “Did you see that? That was the game-winning shot.” Hilarious.
