Coach Tommy Heinsohn elected to the Hall of Fame

[Roy H.]

Celtics legend Tommy Heinsohn, already enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame for his playing career, will be inducted as a coach in 2015.

Heinsohn was one of the first five members of the Class of 2015 announced by the Hall on Saturday at NBA All-Star Weekend. Twelve other finalists for the Class of 2015 were also announced, including former Celtics guard Jo Joe White and former Celtics coach Bill Fitch.

Let's get him enshrined as a broadcaster, too, so that he can be the only three time member.

Congrats, Tommy!

Absolutely. I think he was overdue as a coach, so let's move on to inducting him as a broadcaster. What a career he has had... and all with one team!
