I remember many nights in my kitchen growing up watching (on a little 8 inch TV) Chuck lead Isaiah, Joe, Vinny, Dennis, Rick, Laimbeer and others to another win and eventually a couple championships.

– via ESPN.

  1. He has already proven his worth as a coach.. Surely, he will be missed.. Although it would have different if he was diagnosed earlier.. But we all know that God has a plan for us.. We, fans, would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends left by the legendary coach.. We sincerely pray for him to rest in peace.. It can’t be helped that he will surely be missed.. NBA has lost a hall of famer.. Surely, he will never ever be forgotten.. He shall remain as the legendary coach of the Dream Team..!
