Abdul-Rauf Q&A on Hoopshype

For all you Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf (Chris Jackson) fans there is a great Q&A with him and Jorge Sierra on HoopsHype. Rauf is still playing ball and is over in Japan right now. Go check it out ...

You’re 40 already. Do you have any plans to stop in the near future?

MAR: As long as God gives me the ability to play and I have the desire to play – whichever goes first – I’m going to play.

You still have the passion.

MAR: I still have it. I still love to compete. And I know when to say, “Enough.” I still have the ability to play on the top level. So I’m going to enjoy it as long as I can. And then, after that, go into some type of coaching.

Full story here.

Write respectfully of your SB Nation community and yourself.

Gah whatever let's sign him

Even at 40 he can’t be as bad as Petro or AC….

With Mahmoud its a tough call

God he was great, I remember when he put up over 50, just an insane performance. I was at the last game of i believe it was the 94 season when he nailed the game winner to put us in the playoffs, pretty sure we were playing the suns. But the anthem thing was just sickening. How can he get pissed at the country that makes millions

Hmm Brandon Roy also doesn't join his team for the anthem

But Brandon Roy is the best player in the league outside of Denver. Yeah, I just said it.

The thing is, though, that MAR proclaimed his beliefs so we know why he didn’t. As for Brandon Roy…..

The United States shouldn’t have given people freedom of religion and freedom of speech if they weren’t prepared to deal with the consequences of it.

STIFF LIST (as of 2/7 by Andrew Feinstein)

1. THE NUGGETS AT HOME
How is it possible that a Nuggets team with this much talent can be 7-5 at home?! Things have gotten so bad that fans are clamoring for J.R. Smith to return.

2. CARMELO ANTHONY
Kobe Bryant plays through any and all ailments. Melo uses any and ailments as an excuse not to play.

3. KEVIN LOVE
Just when the T'Wolves are looking better, Love stomps on Luis Scola and lands himself a two-game suspension.

4. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS
The 'Cats have lost 11 straight and are now 3-21 ... in the Eastern Conference! This is what happens when you let an underwear salesman with a Hitler mustache run your team.

5. MIKE BROWN
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew (Google it!) got himself a one-game suspension for making contact with a referee.
