Chris Ford, 74.  Former NBA player, 3 time World Champ (as a player and assistant coach), former Celtics coach.  Original 3 point king, first player to hit a 3 pointer. I always thought he was a better coach than acknowledged. He coached the Bird-McHale-Parish combo in their decline years and still went 222-188 over 5 seasons starting in 1990.
