    If I'm not mistaken, Craig Ackerman lost both of his parents last year as well. The hell is going on. Rest in peace.

    I feel bad for him, losing both his parents in a short amount of time.

    I'm sorry Coach.

    I very recently lost my father and it's very painful. I hope he is able to get some comfort being with family.

    RIP

    They definitely don't make them like that anymore, nobody here in America stands up for ****. Look at all these kids getting bullied and killing themselves, we just lost a real dude right now...

    Also does anyone now realize that Sampson does look kind of native, it's in the eyes right? He kind of has the same look as the Native American who would shed a tear from time to time during commercial beaks.

    Thoughts and Prayers are with him. To lose both parents in a span of 5 weeks is just horrible.

    I hope he takes his time getting back. Basketball is just a game.
