Terrible news. Very sorry for Amare and his family. I wish people would think of automobiles in less romantic terms than we Americans have done. I love cars as much as the next guy, but I have learned to think of them first and foremost as a means of transport, not as toys to drive fast and have fun in.

In 10-20 years, we won't be driving ourselves anyway, the cars will do that for us and we can spend that time doing something useful, like posting on this board how nice it would be to win our sixth or seventh chip!

Horrible news. Thoughts are with Amar'e and his family.

Events like this really do put things into perspective though. Hope Amar'e takes as much time as he needs before coming back.

Oh, man... RIP to Amare's brother. He needs to be with his fam now... Family comes first.

The team will be OK while he's away. There are more important things than BBall.

Play at a higher level? So he can entertain you? That is some selfish ish.

Basketball is just a game. Hope that Amar'e and family can survive the pain of losing a sibling.
