On December 27th, Bam Adebayo and Heat legend Udonis Haslem appeared on a podcast and shared an amusing incident related to the retirement of Bill Russell's jersey at the Heat's home court. Adebayo recounted, "We were about to play against the Celtics, and 'The Captain' (Haslem) came over to give his pre-game speech. At that time, the Heat were retiring Bill Russell's jersey, and other teams in the league were doing the same. Then (Haslem) ended his pre-game speech with 'Fuck Bill Russell.'"
Adebayo continued to mimic the shocked expression at that moment, saying, "Bro, the man had just passed away."
Haslem responded, "I meant absolutely no disrespect to Bill. I love Bill. But when the hell are you ever going to see a Heat jersey retired in Boston? I love Bill Russell, I respect him. But why the hell are you hanging (Celtics jerseys) up there? I won't deny that I said what I said." |
