    Apparently he has some form of cancer, but nothing that seems serious as of right now.

    You know that's odd....My mom and I both noticed he has been looking weird. We thought he was just gaining weight! I feel awful now! Hope he turns out okay!

    “Two and a half years ago, in August of 2003, I was diagnosed with "follicular" Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. This is a low-grade and treatable cancer--not as aggressive as some other forms. The approach that my oncologist recommended was what is called "watchful waiting"--that is, monitoring my condition with checkups every 4 months with the option to begin treatment if and when I began showing symptoms of illness. Through all this time I have had no symptoms...have felt great... and still do to this day.

    The only reason I'm bringing my condition to your attention now is because the swelling of a lymph node near my left ear has become noticeable to viewers of TNT and there have been questions asked. My plan is to work the rest of the NBA season and playoffs, go to the beach with my wife, Cheryl, and our 4 kids, and start a treatment regimen in late June, which will likely include chemotherapy. And then I'll go back to work.
    Yeah I kind of thought it was something like that...Hope he makes a quick recovery.

    EJ is the glue that holds that TNT crew together. Probably the most underrated studio personality in all of sports. Hope it's nothing serious.

    The one guy on TNT I actually like. He is the most unbiased on that show.
