Hope the man gets to live out his life in good health. One of a kind and brought a new meaning on loyalty to the NBA.

Get well and stay healthy!

[Proctor]

A legend. :(

[Im Still Ballin]

One of the best coaches to ever do it

Still might be doing it if it weren't for Deron

Half agree. Deron forced him into an early retirement, but I think he'd be done by now had he not resigned when he did

mum has parkinson's and is 83.... She's had it for about 12+ years.

Father in law has Lewy and that is absolutely worse.
In 1 year he landed in a wheelchair , after falling down numerous times , as well as breaking his neck.

Typical life span is 3-7 years.

Sloan was a very fundamental coach. Working within a system got Utah to where they were at one time an elite team.
His same prowls as coach were radiated from his gut-drive bball player. VERY hard nose player.

Something like 1 out of 12 get Parkinson's
1 out of 5 have mental illness (schizophrenia )

That sucks man. Maybe there will be a medical breakthrough soon.

[Done_And_Done]

Hopefully he pulls through. True legend and a class act.

Actually having two of the great players ever made them elite.

I still think he can beat the shit out of about 95% of players today. Dude is tough as they come.

The man never made excuses, just puts his head down and grinds. A true man's man. Very unfortunate.

[CP3PO]

Sound rough.
