NBA legends on how good Boston Celtics legend Kevin McHale was

Iconic Boston Celtics big man Kevin McHale was one of the greatest to play at the power forward position — and in the minds of many of his peers, the sport from anywhere on the floor.

Winning three titles with the Celtics as part of the “Big Three” of himself, Larry Bird and Robert Parish in the 1980s, McHale’s unstoppable presence in the post aided by his unnaturally long limbs made him a force to be reckoned with. However, you do not need to take our word for it, his peers have long attested to just how good of a player the Minnesota native was.

In a recent episode of the CLNS Media “Basketball Time Machine” podcast, the legendary Celtics forward is praised by his peers of the era of Boston’s dominance in the 1980s he helped make possible.

Watch the clip embedded above to hear how McHale was seen by those who played the game alongside him.
