    So does anyone know what he's doing nowadays, as in work-related? Seems like he's playing a lot of pick up ball, but not for a come back. I wonder if he's invested in something or has a coaching job lined up somewhere. I can't imagine he earned enough in the NBA to be set for life.

    Moochie plays in a age 35 and up league I play in on Monday nights. His team is stacked, Shawn Respert is on their team, too, and he can still ball and is in great shape. We have only beat their team once, it was last year in the finals of the playoffs. Mooch didn't show up until half time, and we were shooting unconscious and jumped to an 18-0 lead. We needed every point of the lead because they came all the way back and took the lead, then we won with a 3 in the last minute. Sorry, no pics.

    He is trying to coach a team right now. I do not remember if it was a younger group of guys but he told me that is what he is trying to do right now. He almost made another attempt to go overseas and play and I thought that is why I haven't seen him in a while, but I guess he is still in Houston playing.

    He used to play in our league's as well, but there hasn't been any leagues since our Basketball Director has left.

    Haha, I just wiki'd Moochie and it was about 100 words if that.


    One sentence: "Early on in his career, Norris dealt with insomnia which he has suffered from for many years."

    VERY important to know in such a short bio.

    He's a nice guy. I played craps with him at one of those season pass party things. Yao was new then, and everyone was crowding him so my table was empty. Moochie walked up and just started chatting it up.
