But joe, who really is?  Kite was a once-in-a-lifetime player!




No other player has combined that amount of no skill, ugliness and
strength on a championship team!


I remember one year in the finals against the Lakers when Kite put on a spurt
of about five minutes of super-intense defense that had the Gahden rocking.  
When the victorious Celtics left the floor, the TV guy grabbed Kite for an
interview.  In a brief moment on screen you had Kite, totally shocked at beng
interviewed, and Bird walking past him grinning broadly at Kite gawking at
the reporter.  It was probably the only time Kite ever got TV time on his own.
