DJ Dies
I just saw on ESPN.com that Dennis Johnson died during practice today. I'm not much of a basketball fan anymore, but DJ was one of my favorites during the Bird era. I loved the way he was able to force opponents to dribble into a dead area of the old Boston Garden floor, then steal the ball. What a tragedy.
My thoughts go out to his family, friends and teammates.

DJ was my first sports hero, along with Jack Sikma, back when the Sonics were actually World Champs.
Rest in peace.
