      He was on a 4 wheeler. Unfortunately paralyzed from the neck down. His accident and a friend being killed on a motorcycle almost 20 years ago made me stop riding bikes. Even though I didn’t ride bikes very often. Def was never #bikelife but I did ride from time to time.

    Jalen Rose got a T for overreacting to a call. The Spurs won 112-109 and were 7-1 overall vs Denver that season (losing the first and winning the next seven). Robinson scored 42. Rogers scored 31 for the Nuggets.

    Nobody can dunk like this today, and everybody could dunk like this in the 90s... I mean, bend the rim put power in the thrust and not just touch the rim. Who bends the rim today?
