What a shame. ESPN just did a show on him. All I can think of, even to this day, is what could have been. What a talent and going to the champs I can remember the day he was drafted and how psyched I was to how powerful the Celts would be but it was not to be. Such a waste of life.

I saw that they were doing a show - did you see it? How was it?
I am a season ticket holder and a life long C's fan. It would have certainly changed the complexion of the team.

I remember that day, the day Red lost his mojo.

Plug him in with the "Big Three" and a youngster named Reggie Lewis....I think there would have been a couple of more championship banners in the rafters.
The Celts were definitely Snake-Bit for a quite a few years after that

Yep , changed the character of Celtic teams for more than a decade. Then Reggie died and it was understandable why they had such a long rebuilding time.
They're Good Now Though!!!!
