Episode 299 - John Havlicek: The Original Sixth Man
About this episode
John Havlicek was the game’s original 6th Man. He defined the concept created by mastermind Red Auerbach. How do you strategically use 6 players in the rotation to keep pressure on the opponent? The NBA now awards a 6th Man Award, but Havlicek embodied the concept.
