@@nonewsisgoodnews9124 BLM is a racist and Marxist organization. If you don’t know that by now then you are not paying attention. They admit to being Marxist and hate what our country stands for. They are for complete abolishment of police and prisons, destruction of the western idea of family, legalization of all drugs and prostitution. Basically everything that makes inner cities slums they want to bring to all of America. They want whites to pay extra taxes to pay for black reparations. They tried to override the equality/civil rights act in California so that whites could be forced to be treated as a lesser race. The founders admit to being trained by Marxists. Unfortunately because of a pandemic, great marketing, billions of dollars in donations, and a generous, good, yet gullible American population they thrived without the millions of followers even knowing their platform. Marxists believe in using traits like color of skin to divide a population. While that population fights among itself it then proceeds to push for revolution. With revolution comes destruction. Then, and only then, the Marxists can take control and rebuild in a manner that best suits their absolute power. It has happened over and over and the population ALWAYS looks back and says, “how did this happen?” 99% of people are for equality and to say America is racist is pure crap and everyone knows it. The first time I put the NBA on after the break and saw it as a commercial for BLM I nearly died myself. It made me sick to listen to all of these kids talk about how racism has destroyed their lives and they can’t even go out in the streets because white people are hunting them. Brainwashed into thinking racism exists in every single facet of society. If it almost killed me to see it, I’m guessing it did the same to Tommy....please research this info, our country’s future depends on this.

@@cd5642 I am not sure what any of this has to to with Tommy. This just seems like you wanting to pick fights with people who are here to remember Tommy, not get involved in your dumb politics but i'll engage anyways. BLM is not racist or marxist. Some BLM founders have said they are trained marxists but the movement is a lot broader than that and there are tons of people affiliated with BLM that are definitely not Marxists. BLM hates what our country stands for? What specifically would that be? They hate the racism and the system structures in place that further racism like our justice system. If you think the justice system doesn't need reform then YOU are the one that hasn't been paying attention. You obviously do not understand Marxism or the BLM movement. You sound like you have been redpilled and propagandized. Lay off the extreme right wing stuff. It's making you say foolish things.

@@nonewsisgoodnews9124 yeah ok I’ve been propagandized. Sorry but the NBA was nothing but a left wing propaganda machine. ALL of the mainstream media and big tech “platforms” are propaganda. Every “movement” during this shit year has been to gauge just how many people they can get to follow insane ideas blindly. Just look at every news organization in their reporting over the last four years. Not only are they reporting the same narrative, those narratives have anchors repeating the same phrasing word for word. There are videos of it and it is just crazy. It’s the same psychological warfare that has been used in every regime change we have done in Northern Africa and the Middle East over the last 25 years. The red pill effect is totally different than seeing what these evil players, who want a global government, are doing to the world. BLM is happening all over the planet. I thought it was just because the US justice system is racist.....if you don’t believe what a group says are they’re beliefs, then you have been broken by them too.

I moved out of Boston last year but I grew up as a crazy Celtics fan. I’m only 34 years old. But I absolutely loved Tommy Heinsohn. I just went into my inbox section on KZitem and saw this. Makes me very sad. I had a feeling he was going to go soon though. He had a great life. I really hope they do a big documentary on him so people can see everything he went through in life. Rest in peace big guy🙏.. I met him three times at Celtics games and he was always so friendly. He wasn’t a jerk. He didn’t try to rush away from the conversation. He would even ask me something LOL.

There was Red Auerbach, there was Tom Heinsohn, and then there was everybody else as far as I've been concerned growing up watching the Celtics all my life. Tom embodied the franchise and it wouldn't have been remotely the same without him.

As a young Bulls fan during the emergence of Michael Jordan and later Scottie Pippen both Tommy and Bob Cousy we’re glowing about their talents and very respectful of the emerging team. Tom was a bit of a homer and whiner at times, but as is said here by his broadcast partner he was just a passionate fan and guy in general. Very well motivated and entertaining man not to mention a basketball talent of his time. Honest and funny. Will be missed. RIP

It sucks that Tommy died seeing the NBA taken over by a racist Marxist group of children. He lived his life as a leader and lover of all creed, so to see the league that you helped grow and loved like a child get overrun by the disease of critical race theory must have broken his heart. Love you Tommy........”saw him in the shower, let me tell ya, he’s ALL of Australia!”
