Kevin Edward McHale (born December 19, 1957) is an American former basketball player who played his entire professional career for the Boston Celtics.
 He is a Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, and is regarded as one of the best power forwards of all time.
 He was named to the NBA's 50th Anniversary Team, and also to the official list of the NBA's best 50 players in 1996.
The 2004–05 NBA season was the 16th season for the Minnesota Timberwolves in the National Basketball Association.
 After appearing in the Conference Finals last year, the Timberwolves played around .500 for the first half of the season.
 However, the team began to struggle losing six straight games between January and February, slipping below .500.
 After a 25–26 start, longtime head coach Flip Saunders was fired and replaced with General Manager Kevin McHale for the remainder of the season.
 The Timberwolves improved under McHale, but finished third in the Northwest Division with a 44–38 record, missing the playoffs for the first time since 1996.
 Kevin Garnett led the team in scoring, rebounding and assists, as he was selected for the 2005 NBA All-Star Game.
 Following the season, Latrell Sprewell retired after turning down a contact extension, Sam Cassell was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers, and McHale was fired as coach.
The 1993–94 NBA season was the 48th season for the Boston Celtics in the National Basketball Association.
 This season marked the first since 1978–79 that the Celtics failed to qualify for the NBA Playoffs (a streak of 14 seasons), finishing fifth in the Atlantic Division with a 32–50 record.
 Tragedy struck the team prior to the season when star forward and team captain Reggie Lewis died of cardiac arrest during practice.
 The absence of Lewis, and the retirements over the previous two seasons of Larry Bird and Kevin McHale contributed to the poor season.
 The Celtics had a 7-game winning streak in January, but also had a winless month in February where they suffered a 13-game losing streak.
 Rookie Dino Radja was named to the All-Rookie Second Team.
 Following the season, longtime Celtics center Robert Parish signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Charlotte Hornets, and Kevin Gamble signed with the Miami Heat.
The 2000–01 NBA season was the Timberwolves' 12th season in the National Basketball Association.
 After the death of Malik Sealy, the Timberwolves scrambled to find a replacement for him, signing free agent Chauncey Billups, a close friend of Kevin Garnett while signing LaPhonso Ellis.
 Meanwhile, the Timberwolves secret free agent deal signed by Joe Smith was voided by the NBA, who ruled their proper procedure in signing the contract, while stripping their first round draft picks for the next five seasons and fined $3.5 million.
 Smith would sign with the Detroit Pistons, and the Timberwolves' owner Glen Taylor, and vice president Kevin McHale were both suspended for one year.
 Despite the troubles, the Timberwolves posted an 11-game winning streak midway through the season, and finished fourth in the Midwest Division with a 47–35 record, with Garnett being selected for the 2001 NBA All-Star Game.
The sixth man in basketball is a player who is not a starter but comes off the bench much more often than other reserves, often being the first player to be substituted in.
 The sixth man often plays minutes equal to or exceeding some of the starters and posts similar statistics.
 He is often a player who can play multiple positions, hence his utility in substituting often.
 For example, Kevin McHale, a famous sixth man who played for the Boston Celtics in the 1980s, variably played center and power forward.
 The presence of a good sixth man is often a sign of team excellence.
 It usually means that a team has excellent depth, as the sixth man is usually more than talented enough to start for most teams.
The 2008–09 Minnesota Timberwolves season was the 20th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).
 The team finished the season coached by Kevin McHale.
 After the season, McHale was dismissed though he would return as head coach for the Houston Rockets for the shortened 2011–12 season and would later guide the Rockets to the Western Conference Finals in 2015.
The Celtics–Pistons rivalry was a National Basketball Association (NBA) rivalry between the Boston Celtics and the Detroit Pistons.
 The two teams played each other in the NBA playoffs five times from 1985–1991, with Boston winning in 1985 and 1987, and Detroit winning en route to back-to-back NBA Finals appearances in 1988 and 1989, and 1991.
 The rivalry peaked in the late 1980s, featuring players such as Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Robert Parish, Isiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, and Bill Laimbeer.
The 1992–93 NBA season was the 47th season for the Boston Celtics in the National Basketball Association.
 This marked the first season since the 1978–79 season that Hall of Fame player Larry Bird was not on the team.
 This was also the final season for longtime Celtics All-Star forward Kevin McHale, as he would retire the following offseason.
 During the offseason, the Celtics signed free agent All-Star forward Xavier McDaniel.
 However, the team got off to a bad start losing eight of their first ten games, but would post a nine-game winning streak in March to finish second in the Atlantic Division with a solid 48–34 record (only 3 games behind the previous year, when Bird was on the team).
 The Celtics held home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs against the 5th-seeded Charlotte Hornets, but during Game 1 of the series, All-Star forward Reggie Lewis collapsed on the court (Lewis would never again play in a Celtics uniform, and would die before the next season began).
 Boston held on to win Game 1, but (minus Lewis) lost the next three games, and thus the series.
The 2011–12 Houston Rockets season was the 45th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 41st based in Houston.
 The off-season saw team draft a pair of first round picks, forward Marcus Morris from Kansas was drafted 14th overall and Madrid sensation Nikola Mirotić was drafted 23rd overall.
 Forward and 3-point specialist Chandler Parsons from Florida was taken with the 38th pick in the second round.
 The season is most memorable when ex-Celtic Kevin McHale was hired to be their new head coach for the upcoming season.
 The Rockets finished with a mediocre 34–32 record without the playoffs.
John Kevin McHale (born 1 October 1939, Mexborough, England) was an English professional footballer who played as a striker for Huddersfield Town, Crewe Alexandra, Chester and Hastings United.
