Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle collapsed at practice on Friday and was taken off the court on a stretcher and to a hospital.

Carlisle told ESPNDallas.com's Tim MacMahon via text message from the hospital that he was "fine."

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
He's from my area. Hope he's okay long term.

Hope he's OK.  I have always been a fan of his.

I am surprised this doesn't happen more often with coaches though.  Many of them coach with such intensity on the sidelines, it can't be good for their health.
