Very sad as a fan, but even more sad for his family.  He was very close to his father, brothers, and other family members.

it is so sad because on monday when he had a press conference he said that he was looking forward to the game. he was looking forward to seeing the only game they played against each other at both 1 and 2. \n\ni think that it is sad that he is now gone but he will always be remembered in Michigan forever more.

Yeah I was watching like every single game until the Lakers got knocked out... Now I'm sortta depressed about the whole thing. It's not gonna get real interesting until the next round. Then comes the finals when things really start to heat up.

I am both saddened and disgustened.\n\nYou should check out the question where he asks if it is okay that he hit his girlfriend twice in the mouth and then kicked her when she fell to the floor.  And all in front of her kids.\n\nClassy!

boo hoo refs everything does not go our way.  shut up and play basketball thats how they win not by crying around like you\n\nAll that said, it was a rather surreal meltdown. The Mavs owner, Mark Cuban, appeared to lose his mind in an obscenity-soaked diatribe spewed at anyone near him. And Dallas' seven-foot star Dirk Nowitzki turned into the world's largest 4-year-old, knocking things over in a rage on the way to the locker room and kicking a basketball into the stands that struck a woozy 63-year-old in the head. It was enough to make Nowitzki's musical companion, greasy David Hasselhoff, a man who has been photographed nude while covered in puppies, profoundly ashamed.\n\nThis is an article from the Miami press why would you go for a team who assaults 63 year women.  He at least needs to say hes sorry.  Hes lucky it was not one of my family members that would be the end of his NBA carrer.

President Kennedy.\nI was alive but in grammar school. I remeber him being shot and they put it on he black and white over head tv's. Everyone was crying so I did too. I did not quite understand it but I heard all the hoopla about his death. The teachers were shocked.\nThey dismissed us early that day.\n\nI wish I had been older than 8. Because I would have remembered so much more. It was a sad sad day in history. And his death was horific, being shot in front of so many people, broad daylight, in front of his wife. No one deserved that.

basketball should be reflection of its player.  the argentinan singer doesn't have rap album coming out soon.  basketball has become to bland.  there aren't personalities in the league anymore.  the are a bunch of millionares worrying about their contracts and mistresses.  if you make 10 million dollars a year, what do you care about allstar weekend for.  keep enough fans happy so they will buy your 150 dollar shoes.  david stern is disconnected from his employees.  basketball is nothing how it use to be during the bird and magic era

From USA Today 11/13/06:\n\nGerald Levert: Gruff-voiced, ever smooth\n\nSection: Life, Pg. 03d\n\nGerald Levert, the gruff-voiced everyman and second-generation R&B star who died Friday of a heart attack at age 40, was one of the genre's most consistent singer/songwriters of the past 20 years.\n\nHe arrived during the New Jack Swing era of the mid-1980s as part of the group LeVert (a trio with his brother Sean and Marc Gordon) and scored a string of hits, including (Pop, Pop, Pop, Pop) Goes My Mind, Casanova and Just Coolin'. Gerald went solo in 1991 with the No. 1 R&B album Private Line, though he continued to contribute to the trio's albums.\n\nStylistically, he struck a balance between the smoothness of Luther Vandross and the raw sexuality of R. Kelly.\n\nOver the years, R&B incorporated more of hip-hop's thug-love sensibilities, but Levert remained true to vintage traditions, delivering powerful ballads with working-class aspirations similar to those expressed by his legendary father, The O'Jays' Eddie Levert.\n\nIn 1995, they recorded the album Father and Son.\n\nHere are five especially memorable Gerald Levert songs worth downloading:\n\n*School Me\n\n*Baby Hold on to Me\n\n(with Eddie Levert)\n\n*Already Missing You\n\n(with Eddie Levert)\n\n*Mr. Too Damn Good\n\n*A Rose by Any Other Name (with Teena Marie)
