What a topic for easter. Someone must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed.
Plane with Heat players makes emergency landing
The charter jet carrying the Miami Heat home from a road trip made an emergency landing early Sunday in Chicago after a mechanic on board became ill.
Team spokesman Tim Donovan said the man, who was not identified, was OK and that team trainers tended to him in the air for what was believed to be a diabetic coma. When the plane landed in Chicago, he was taken to a hospital.
The flight eventually resumed, and the Heat landed in Miami at 5:04 a.m. Sunday
“Just landed back in the MIA feels good to be back home safe and sound,” Heat guard Daequan Cook wrote on his Twitter feed.
Heat guard Dwyane Wade wrote on Twitter about the surprise landing.
“Hey everyone pray for our pilot,” Wade wrote. “… He went into a Coma. God bless this man and his family.”
Donovan said the man was in the pit when he became ill.
The team was returning to Miami after beating the Minnesota Timberwolves 97-84 Saturday night.

noob cake just living up to his name.
You're talking like this is a religious holiday or something, it's about rabbits, eggs, and chocolate, I fail to see any connection between any of those and religion. I was going to post it on Friday but I was having a good day and got distracted.
He already tried this in 2008 but the plane in New Orleans never got off the tarmac.
St. Peter was a rabbit
OMFG!!! It all makes sense, so that's why the Pope's hat is like that!
The disaster draft would happen before the start of the following season; I don't think it's applicable to this kind of situation. I doubt there's any kind of contingency plan to deal with this.
I think they'd probably cancel the rest of the playoffs and declare the team involved in the accident as the champions. A lot would depend on the mood among the public/press. I hope we never have to find out.
no way would they give the disaster team the le at of pity because if they did Mavs Fans would have....na this dark humor is just not my style.
a bye or cancellation of the playoff seems likely with the bye being the number one choice.
Manchester United lost 8 Players in 1958 because of a plane crash in Munich.
The 1949 team of Torino was also killed in a plane crash near Turin
You're right. Torino won five Championships in a row - the last one 1949. 5 gamedays before the end of the season they were already Champions and so they traveled to Lisboa for a friendly match. But the players came never back to Italy.
cancellation would be my number one choice if it happen(hope it never does) if they didn't cancel it I don't think I could watch it just would not the right
