Just saw the news, been watching clips and highlights ever since. Man, I already miss this guy. He was one of my favorites growing up, I had his Denver rookie card and it was like my prized possession when I was about 9. He was such a fun player to watch and seemed like such a fun guy off the court, too. He will be missed.

To put Deke's height in perspective, Conan is 6'4". In the NBA that is the height of a PG, but among us average height folks 6'4" is up there. So imagine how 7'2" would be to us.
