And I didn't even really think about that last night, the situation with his daughter. Once again, what toughness and courage the guy has, aside from being a high-level basketball player.
Anybody who dismisses what's gone on with his daughter, handling the situation with his wife last year, and going over to Africa last year - is just an idiot, frankly, and an inconsiderate person.
Ron being a "headcase" has been overblown since 2004 or 2005 (depending how you feel about the trade demand), IMO. The people he's a "headache" to is the people who over-worry and exaggerate about him. When that, now, is unnecessary and lacks credibility. Which there are a lot of those people, unfortunately. All comes down to a lack of knowledge, thus a limited perspective.
Great to know she had a successful surgery.

Ron is not a headcase. He's a very emotional player, and you can see that when he plays. To play with his daughter on his mind must kill him. I'll root for him wherever he goes.

And, he hasn't shown this much in emotion like he has this season, in years. Most technicals since 02-03, too, and most of the technicals aren't deserved or are nothing crazy in the reason.

Agreed, I hope he stays here, but if the UNTHINKABLE happens the exceptions would the be the Flakers and Whoriers. I just couldn't do it then.Cruel_Ruin wrote:Ron is not a headcase.
