NBA Throwback Thursday: Bill Russell teaches defensive rebounding

One of the greatest players to ever hit the hardwood shows you how to properly box somebody out so you can gobble up all of the defensive rebounds. Russell finished his 13 year career with 11 championship rings playing the center position so if anybody knows how to box a man out, it's him. 

NBA Throwback Thursday: Bob McAdoo 50 point playoff game

I'm not a basketball expert nor a basketball historian but this was most likely the best day Bob McAdoo ever had while playing in the NBA. It's game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semi Finals and Bob McAdoo receives two coveted awards before Tip-off, the scoring title for the year along with being crowned the leagues MVP. McAdoo came into the game averaging 35 ppg in the series and looking to tie it at 2-2. The Hall of Fame player Bob McAdoo, who was mostly known for his shooting touch, finished the game with 50 points 1 assist and 21 rebounds in the Braves win. It's also worth mentioning that McAdoo scored his 50 points without shooting a 3 pointer due mostly to the fact that the 3 point line didn't exist in the league at the time. The Buffalo Braves, the team McAdoo played for at the time, eventually moved to San Diego and became the Clippers (now the LA Clippers). Bob McAdoo still holds the Braves/Clippers record for most minutes played per game (40.1), field goals made per game (11.1) and field goal attempts per game (22.1). He was straight ballin.
