Chuck Daly, legendary Pistons coach of the Bad Boys, dead at 78
Chuck Daly, the Detroit Pistons coach who led the Bad Boys to the back-to-back NBA titles and was nicknamed Daddy Rich for his snappy dressing style, died this morning. He was 78.
The Pistons said Daly died in Jupiter, Fla., with his family by his side. Funeral arrangements are pending, but the team said services would take place next week in Florida.An announcement came in March that Daly, who had the most wins in Pistons franchise history, was diagnosed with late-stage pancreatic cancer.Before Daly, “The Pistons’ legacy was two men deep,” Free Press sports writer Charlie Vincent wrote in 1996. “Bob Lanier had played here. And Dave Bing.”
That changed in May 1983 when the Pistons hired Daly to coach a team that had never posted back-to-back winning seasons.

He was an 8th-grader, a Chicago-area Pop Warner football star with NFL aspirations and a kid who looked up to his father and older brother more than anything. Within a seventh-month period, both of his role models were gone.

Kenon Williams, 28, was arrested in October 1999 and still is incarcerated in downstate Robinson. Jason Williams, who declined to discuss the details of his brother's arrest, said Kenon "got involved with the wrong crowd."

His father, Connell, died in a May 2000 fire.
"Reality just hit me," Jason Williams said. "Losing the two male figures back to back, it was pretty rough on me. When I look at my brother's situation, I guess it shows me the way my life could have gone."
