McHale was certainly no role player on a great Larry Bird-led Celtics teams of the 1980’s, but probably the second-best player on the team and a member of the Hall of Fame. For a guy that seemingly never lifted weights, looked liked he was inflicted with some kind of illness and was famous for drinking a can of soda before each game, he could definitely play. McHale is considered to be one of the top five power forwards of all time. Gifted around the rim, he had an almost unstoppable ‘up and under move’ that has been mimicked by almost every big man since he last played. McHale averaged over 26 points and nearly 10 rebounds per game during the 1986-87 season.
