2690930, he does come up and where did he have success other than boston?

outside of the celtics he had one season of note at any level and in any role (he coached washington to the finals they lost in 75). same thing with tom heinsohn, who had a very similar level of success with boston as jones but never coached anywhere else.
in both cases there was a sense that auerbach was running the show much as he did from upstairs in 68 and 69. again i don't fully understand how that discredits either guy, but i don't think either has been overlooked.
