I'm guessing that instead he'll delegate more of the scouting.

Prior to this job, Ainge had very little management experience. It's quite possible that he hasn't been delegating enough.

I'm not worried about the future. I'm just glad Ainge as a person is recovering well. You bring up a good point though. Ainge may resign or cut back some. Health is the most important thing.

I'm also glad that KG isn't playing on a damaged knee because that could effect the rest of his life. Just look at the way Kevin McHale walks know. That was mainly because of playing on a broken bone in his foot.

I hope he changes aspects of his life that actully improve his heart and cardio health.

He has great amount of power in the organisation and can adjust his job to fit his health. Fortunately, we live in area that has the best health care in the world.

U Mass medical has one of the best cardio records in the country. I'm going out there next week for a cardio diet seminar. My cardiologist friend sent me a state of the art paper, "Dietary stategies for improving post-prandial glucose, lipids, inflammation and CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH". I had a somewhat similar lipid induced inflamation problem and the dietary adjustment cleared it up relatively quickly.

I'll say this again, this may have been a blessing for him, a warning as it were, which he seems to have survived well.

I''m also beinning to think he foresaw the loss, there was nothing he could do about it, and he felt a lot of stress that he'd let us down. DA's ability to see ahead is remarkable.

Lot of things cause heart attacks. Family history, poor eating habits, stress, and lack of excerise.

LongTimeFan, I'm not a doctor, but I'm in the fitness injustry. I recommend :

1. walking about 4-5 times a week for about 20-30 minutes each day. Walking improves the cardiovascular system and reduces stress.
2. Drink water and green tea. Green tea lowers chilesterol, improves circulation, and promotes good heart health.
3. Take fish oil. It helps with inflammation. Also try to eat Salmon, 2-3 times a week.
4. Meditate about 15-20 minutes a day, preferably in the mornings. This really helps with reducing stress.
5. Stay away from fatty foods and junk food for the obvious reasons.

He's definitely lucky. Otherwise he might've wound up like DJ. Amazing how the whole backcourt had heart disease young.
