(NBA) RIP to Celtics Legend and HOFamer Jo Jo White

He was the original truth.

Game 5 of the 1976 NBA Finals........'nuff said. One of the greatest playoff performances in league history. I'll always remember Jo Jo sitting on the court exhausted in that triple OT game.

What a great player. I read a story about him in the NCAA semi-final game in the year in which Texas Western won the NCAAs. JoJo White barely grazed the out-of-bounds line on the last play of the game. Of course, there was no instant replay. His coach asked him if he'd touched the out-of-bounds line and JoJo said, yes he thought he did. The ball went over to the other team, who won and got to play for the championship.

That is pure class.
