The new documentary “Call Me Bill” lasts 93 minutes and shows many entertaining, enlightening glimpses of the former Pistons’ owner William Davidson, who died in 2009 with three National Basketball Association championships.
But the film’s highlight is an 82-second clip of recordings from the legendary Boston Celtics’ radio announcer Johnny Most, who describes Davidson’s “Bad Boys” Pistons in the late 1980s.

“We’re starting to see the `bang-bang’ stuff now,” Most growls into the microphone.
Those rugged Pistons included Dennis Rodman, Bill Laimbeer and Rick Mahorn. They battled a Boston team led by Larry Bird.
“Rodman is all over Bird,” Most says.
“There is a violent, VIOLENT knockdown by Laimbeer. OH, MY! A completely unnecessary foul by Laimbeer – and he has the audacity to complain about something.“
