David Aldridge on John Wooden

NBA Analyst David Aldridge on John Wooden:
"I don't think I could accurately convey the impact he had on the game, and all of basketball; not just college, but the NBA. He's a giant figure. He's a seminal figure in the history of basketball. His impact is far-reaching. The tentacles reach down into the heart of the game. Everybody that's either played for him or coached with him or got a job because of him - he is a dynamic, large figure. If there's a Mount Rushmore of basketball, you could make a very good argument he's on it."
