The NBA didn’t award a Finals MVPs during his career. He played 13 seasons in the NBA, winning 11 titles, and averaged 15.1 points, 22.5 rebounds and 4.3 assists. If Auerbach was the architect, Russell-a five-time MVP who led the league in rebounding five times-was the foundation upon which the Celtics’ dynasty was built. "He was the best coach in the history of professional sports.

He was the first coach to start five Black players, and hired Russell as the NBA’s first Black head coach. The PSP version also adds Meng Huo from Dynasty Warrior 6: Empires as a playable character.In 1950, Auerbach drafted the league’s first African American player, Duquesne's Chuck Cooper. The Playstation Portable and Playstation 2 release adds 6 new character story modes and 5 new stages not found in the Xbox 360/Playstation 3. The others can be used in the game's free mode and can be built up and obtain weapons and skills.

It is the first of the series to be designed specifically for Xbox 360/Playstation 3 generation of consoles and graphically makes better use of their hardware, allowing for sharper detail and more enemies on screen. It is an action game with traces of strategy when the player is faced with how to achieve certain sub-missions during a battle. The player needs to battle his way through numerous battlefields, capturing forts and succeeding in objectives in order to bring about victory for his faction. The sixth main game in the long running Dynasty Warriors series (or fifth if one goes by the original Japanese naming scheme) once again allows the player to take a legendary hero from the quasi-historical novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" into battle against thousands of enemy peons.
