I too followed Seattle very closely that year, dreaming of Bias on the Celtics....I believe I had seen him at the scrimmages the summer before in Marshfield....he was a counselor at Red's summer camp.....Red had elite college players working the camp and current C's

The comparison to Worthy is fair except Bias was a stronger jump shot, was effective down low and a better rebounder....just not quite as speedy
I can still hear your distinct sinister laugh every time they lost a game. Probably very similar to the one Red Auerbach had.
