Kinda sad he didn't really go anywhere ... he was one heck of a player.

He was MVP the year before this video, carrying a buncha no-name teammates to the Finals. Rose gripes about the punishment he takes every night ... AI did this for years before finally breaking down.

I have a love/hate with AI ... I was a Georgetown fan from 30 years back, and loved watching and attending games, but AI was one of the first to go pro after his soph year, and after that college ball became an endless stream of 1 and done kids moving on to the NBA. It isn't going to change, so now I watch a watered down NBA where the mid range jump shot and passing is a lost art, replaced by isolations and dunks.
