OK, enough with the sitting around and moping. It's time for the next work..............
He was the prototypical power forward in the 1950s. He was named rookie of the year in 1949, to the All-NBA team six times, once led the league in rebounding, three times — in free throw percentage. He was also a champion: he took the Syracuse Nationals (the precursor of the Philadelphia 76ers) to the title in 1955. When he retired in 1964, he was not only the NBA's all-time leader in games played, but also in scoring (take that, Jordan and Bird!).
Wow. Just wow. Do you want more? Sure you do, who doesn't love reading about Jews excelling in sport! After retiring, he went into coaching, and was named the NBA Coach of Year in 1966. In 1973, he made the Basketball Hall of Fame.
OK, once you figure out who "he" is (and I expect that might take 20 seconds) get out that pencil and pad!
