Amazing. With all the medical exams and staff pro-athletes have available, they still get ambushed. Hoping the cause of death is natural...
Tomorrow is promised to no one. Very sad news, my condolences go out to his family. +
Really puts the Curry drama in perspective.
I hope this doesn't take this thread in the wrong direction, but does this give any pause for thought about Eddy Curry.
Prayers to his family and friends..That is very sad..Does anybody know if he had problems before? That's way to young. His poor wife I can't possibly imagine giving my husband cpr and him dying that is just awful for her..

ATLANTA (AP) -- Atlanta Hawks center Jason Collier died Saturday morning, possibly of cardiac arrest, the team said. He was 28.
Hawks spokesman Arthur Triche said no other details immediately were available and did not say where Collier was when he died.
The 7-foot, 260-pound Collier, a five-year NBA player, spent his first three seasons with Houston before joining Atlanta in 2003. He averaged 5.6 points and 2.9 rebounds in his career.
Collier played for Georgia Tech and was drafted by Milwaukee in the first round, with the 15th pick overall, in the 2000 NBA draft.
Oops; just when you start a thread, it's already there...thoughts and prayers to his family.
...but this is exactly why the Bulls didn't pay Curry.
No. You are thinking of Jason Collins.
Sincere condolences to the Collier family. Damn.![]()

How sad for his family, friends, and team. Prayers all around.
R.I.P Jason Colliers... This really sucks.. He was so young...
