    Never take life for granted and live happy no matter what, people with money can never have enough, people with little money learn to appreciate things. Sad to see that another person, not just former NBA player, failed to see the brighter things in life and dwell on the bad things in life.
    Rest in Peace L.W.

    I'm sure there are so many questions...especially from his family as to why he would kill himself...but I wonder why do it in the middle of the woods where it's already devastating enough being gone, but to do it where you wont be found right away. Maybe it wasn't suicide?

    R.I.P Lorenzen Wright....I remember your game like it was yesterday.

    I hope Ronny learns from this one. Don't jump the gun about being a jerk next time.

    Man, that's just sad. So sad.

    I haven't been following this. Why would he commit suicide?

    Although things seem a bit odd...I wouldn't be surprised if there was foul play involved.

    Ain't so funny now is it? I remember everyone thought this was a joke, a lot of people on clutchfans take serious stuff as a joke. I hope you guys learn your lesson.

    Ridiculous and inappropriate jokes are made countless times per day on this site.

    People are getting on Ronny because he's Ronny. I can't say I blame them for that as I've seen enough of his posts to understand why but the joke, in itself, was far from that big of a deal, esp. given the nature of this site and the internet, in general.

    I can't believe I'm saying it but lay off Ronny on this one. If you want to bust his chops, there are plenty of other posts of his you can work with where it makes some sense.

    RIP Lorenzen. My family will pray for your family.
