My Take
P. J. Carlesimo strikes me as the embodiment of basketball obsession in the best sense. Spending nearly four decades coaching across college and the NBA, then sliding seamlessly into the broadcast booth with ESPN and TNT, shows a man who simply cannot leave the game alone. The 1995 John Bunn Award confirms the respect he commands. What I find compelling is the rare 360-degree perspective he holds, having seen the sport from the sideline, the locker room and the press table. I have a real fondness for people this single-mindedly devoted to one craft.
