    I wonder if I stood up a Tweeter site, would Twitter send me a nasty letter?

    Great writer and student of the game. I hope he's staying in the NBA circle and moving up the ladder in some capacity.

    This is actually pretty sad. His extensive goodbyes makes it sound like he is leaving the biz.

    Dang. Hate to see him go. Always looked forward to and read his articles, and I always learned something from them.

    I wonder if he'll be replaced by Barry Rufflewitz?

    Why is he thanking everyone? Suspicious

    Is he sick?

    CP25 is leaving Houston! Or at least his look a like.

    I'm going to miss him on Rockets.com
