Boston Celtics/Sports Illustrated - w/e 11/6/06
Expert: Alessandro - 11/3/2006
QuestionThis one may be a bit tricky; however, an expert should be able to field it quite nicely. I'm looking at page 45 of this week's publication and the picture featured refers to the 1965 team. My question is two-folded; is this the '65 team (I believe it not to be since Cousy is prominently shown), and, if not what year is it (I'm thinking it's '63).
Bonus: Who's pictured, not named and where might I find that year's roster?
AnswerSince Cousy retired after the 1962-63 season, you would be right in assuming that any picture featuring him in a uniform could not have come from 1965 ... However, since I don't subscribe to "Sports Illustrated", I'm afraid I can't venture a guess as to which team is featured in said picture.
