Danny Ainge was a feisty player in the NBA. Players on opposing teams didn't like him and sometimes stories were twisted to make him worse than he was. There is the rumor that he bit the Hawks' Tree Rollins in a brawl while he was on the Celtics. "Ainge Bites Tree." But actually it was the reverse. Rollins bit him.
After winning a title in 1986 for the Celtics, Ainge had one more NBA Finals appearance as a member of the Celtics the following year, but after a pit stop in Sacramento, Danny would be an integral part of two Western Conference champion teams.
