Jerry Colangelo is one of those old school sports figures who you know has a thousand stories, all of which are probably interesting as hell.
I wish I could’ve chatted it up with Colangelo as he was smoking a cigar after a few glasses of scotch. Instead, I had to settle for a 10-minute Q & A as he signed copies of his new book (about how he assembled the 2008 Olympic men’s basketball team) in a private room inside the NBA Store.
There is new information on some changes he’ll make to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame now that he’s been named Chairman.
