Someone needs to add in here that "away from the court", Heinsohn is a chronic alcoholic and is known in the circles of the NBA as a mean drunk.

1) We would need a reputable citation to make such a statement, preferably more than one. 2) The fact (if true) that someone is an alcoholic is not, in itself, noteworthy. As they say in the newspaper business, that fact that someone is a drinker isn't news, unless it makes him do something that is news. Fumblebruschi 20:19, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
