A somewhat unheralded trade pick up by Auerbach that performed above and beyond initial expectations for the Cs.

Thanks to Robert Parish and also happy birthday.

Clyde,

Getting Parish is an "unheralded trade pick up"? The deal that got us Parish and McHale is generally considered one of the most lop-sided trades in NBA history.

Bob,

Certainly that trade turned out great for the Cs, but my calling Parish "unheralded" was due to the fact that he had basically not yet proven himself in the NBA and was kind of considered a throw in with the draft pick that turned out to be Kevin McHale.
