Injuries plagued his career.

your thoughts?

That's so sad. He was a good player and if it weren't for his injuries, he'd be a great role player today. :cry:

he was really good back in the day. oh well. with the way he is now, he's better off retired.

He was good back in the day, but hope he has a good retirement.

I really liked him when he was healthy but it was time to go.

It's funny, I never really thought about how much time he missed, yet he only played all 82 games once (his lone All-Star year) and appeared in only 611 games in 11 seasons. Still, he was a fine player and could've been a multi-time All-Star had he remained healthy.

I'm surprised it took so long for this to happen. I had expected he'd be gone before the year started.

Wow, Monster Mash was just 2 years off his best, all-star season.

I always bought his shoes as they were awesome. One of the best last names in NBA history and a good player to top it off.

Not a bad guy. Oh well, he can play golf and travel the world for the rest of his life.

Damn, it has to be great to live a life as a retired player. Millons of dollars on your bank account and ability to make all your dreams come true. Or you just lie on a beach/bitch and sniff coke. Either way, it sounds like a whole lot of fun.

Another typical case of a player in the 90's that could've done a ton of great things but injuries killed his career.

I really liked Jamal's style of play. He was a matchup nightmare and could shoot a nice fadaway jumper from almost anywhere.
