Good read. Hopefully no paywall. @MrTailgate

The Detroit Pistons Were My Father’s Second Family

Jack McCloskey built a championship team that was both loved and loathed. I only began to appreciate who he was years later.

that's a great article -- thanks for linking. Trader Jack's daughter, Molly, did a great job of capturing a number of different aspects of her father's life.
