Bill Russell remains in total control
Bill Russell remains in total control PHOENIX – Blocked shots weren’t an official NBA statistic until the 1973-74 season, four years after Bill Russell had retired.

Recruiting fever still escalating
Recruiting fever still escalating There’s a tie for the title of most absurd development in sports in the last 10 years. Both, not surprisingly, are a product of the explosion of interest in the recruitment of high school athletes.
