Maxwell: Best Celtics Player of All-Time is Not Larry Bird or Bill Russell… (podcast)

When talking about the best Celtics player of all time the conversation usually revolves around two men. Bill Russell and Larry Bird. A strong case can be made for either and seldom is any other name submitted for consideration.

Until now.

Celtics legend Cedric Maxwell joined Adam Kaufman on the Celtics Beat Podcast on CLNS Media to reveal who he thinks is the best all around player to ever wear the green. And the answer may surprise you.

“Kevin Garnett is the best all-around player the Celtics have ever had,” says Maxwell.
