    Weird. He told KATU news in Portland that he planned on playing the season out. I mean it could happen and the people in Portland wouldn't care but he just said he planned on playing. That blows butthole is he's out.

    I watched that game live, it was quite frankly one of the most amazing one man efforts in basketball history in the playoffs. It rivals a lot of the things that made Kobe and Lebron such superstars.


    I can't believe this kid is retiring...damn it.
