It wasn't Red, although one of the chapters in On and Off the Court is titled, 'Basketball is War'.

It was a Celtics coach. The key word is intensity.

Heck what coach havent we had that wasnt a bit intense?
About the only one I can think of is Satch and he didn't coach long.

Cowens coached but I couldn't see him sayin that.
Doesn't sound like KC but it might have been. Doubt it was any of the parade of coaches thru the 90's ford rodgers ect

OK one last attempt then I quit

SORRY, NO TOMMY POINTS TODAY ON CHRISTMAS!!!!

After a solid 56-26 regular season in 1973-74, the stage was set for the Celtics' first NBA Finals appearance since 1968-69. Their opponents, the Milwaukee Bucks with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, were favored to win. But the shorter Cowens capitalized on his quickness and determination, proving that a championship team didn't need a big man in the middle. In the climactic seventh game in Milwaukee, Cowens scored 28 points and snatched 14 rebounds to push Boston to a 102-87 win.

The victory was an affirmation of Heinsohn's coaching ideas. In what he called "guerrilla warfare," his teams kept the pressure on opponents at all times, controlling the tempo of the game and playing with great intensity. "We made teams crack in these playoffs," he told the Boston Globe. "We got them to points in big games in the fourth quarter where they just didn't want to play anymore."
