0 was for the zero respect and zero prospects he had coming into the league.

6 is for the second six-year contract that the Wizards gave him, or was that the total number of guns in the locker room, or the number of months he was suspended, or the number of millions he lost, or the number of the draft pick the Wizards will get, or the...

He did. I propose the NBA retire Bill Russell's jersey much like how the NHL retired Gretzkys' number. :rock:

I wouldn't mind both Howard and MM back as long as the deals were
reasonable.
A lot of what we call 'thought' is just mental activity

When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression
