Few people had a better view of Boston Celtics history in the 1980s as it happened than famed New England sportswriter Dan Shaughnessy. A Boston Globe legend, Shaugnessy did what many like him during the pandemic lockdowns, he wrote a book on being on the road with the NBA of the 1980s, particularly Larry Bird and the 1980s Celtics.
Shaugnessy provides a very unique and rare uncensored glimpse at the media life during a league that needed the media to promote their games and the media needed the athletes to build their stories.
