Jack Ramsay dies at age 89

Aw man, he seemed like a smart guy who was also nice. My one takeaway from that article: Terry Stotts should keep that jacket. Nice to see a coach in something other than boring.

Yeah I agree. I always enjoyed when Dr. Jack spoke as he seemed extremely thoughtful and was well respected around the NBA.

We need to discuss Berbatov's move to Monaco and subsequent career as a meditation counselor. After this somnolent score a week ago:

He scored twice while sleepwalking this weekend: #1 and #2.

RIP, Jack Ramsay, you taught a lot of NBA players the game of basketball. More importantly, you also taught a few million fans a lot about the game.

Berbatov comes from the Le Tissier school of finishing.

"I'm going to score from here so I don't have to run any further."

I can't find it, but his reaction was priceless when they asked him for the goal in the gif, "did you mean that?"

Aint' no party like a Berbatov party :

Liked this tribute to Dr. Jack from Baron Davis. And this. Can't imagine him as a frogman.
