On the surface, Bill Walton and his Pac-12 broadcasting partner of six years Dave Pasch go together like orange juice and toothpaste. Like Lena Dunham and a bachelor party. Like myself and good, forward-thinking decisions. And Pasch knew this before the two were paired together–he at first resisted the pairing and claimed he felt and still feels supremely awkward at times during broadcasts when Walton goes off an an unhinged tangent about art, music, volcanoes, what have you.
Each game I do with Bill Walton ages me in dog years. After this week's PAC 12 tournament, I'll be 376.

Bill on faith.
“I’ve never lost more faith in humanity than that moment.” — Bill Walton talking about losing the ESPN Celebrity Game as a coach.

This is Bill Walton’s world. We’re just living in it.
