A letter to Micheal Jordon: Shame on you for refusing to help Pop

Quote:

Dear Michael Jordan, I heard Pop Herring was in jail so I drove up to see him the other night. You remember Pop, your basketball coach at Laney High in Wilmington, N.C. The man who opened the gym at 6 a.m. so you could work on that jumper. The man who let you borrow his car and had you over to his house and treated you like a son. The man who put you on jayvee in your sophomore year. Didn't cut you, as you always said after that, although at the time it probably felt like a cut. I guess it still does, or did in 2009, when you were inducted into the Hall of Fame, and you addressed Pop directly without actually using his name and said, regarding his failure to put you on varsity, "I wanted to make sure you understood: You made a mistake, dude." Well, it was your mistake. You used what should have been a joyful occasion to call out a man for something he did not actually do. A sick and indigent man at that. As we both know, Pop's life fell apart after you left town. Not his fault. A disease ran in his family, paranoid schizophrenia or some such thing, and he started acting strange, and he lost his job, and his wife, and his daughter, and pretty much everything else. Took to drinking, as you or I might do in similar circumstances. Did you help him? Not in the past 18 years. He and his friends say the last time you saw him was 1994, and no one from your camp has come forward to dispute this. That was at a celebration of you in Chicago, and you introduced him to your fans as "the first guy to ever cut me," and they booed. Read more: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/201...#ixzz23XzBjpuA

Lakers-Suns?
Cavs-Wizards?

Great rivalries there

Read a paragraph of this at work and literally closed it and couldn't believe this was ran by SI. Think it's not only poorly written, but a pathetic excuse for a story.

I hope D Rose comes back and just rips up the league like he was doing before he got injured.

A healthy D. Rose is way more important than any moves this off season. I pray that he doesn't attempt to rush back. Feels great to see him on the court though
