Cuttino Mobley Is Close To Calling It Quits

Even though his boy Stevie Franchise might now be back in action, Cuttino Mobley’s career could very well come to an end by the week’s close. It turns out that the heart condition that almost prevented the Zach Randolph trade from going through is more serious than some people imagined.

Cuttino Mobley is strongly mulling a medical retirement because of an enlarged heart condition and could make the announcement tomorrow, according to a person familiar with the situation.

According to the source, Mobley helped initiate the extra testing following his failed physical. “He’s not really focused on basketball, his main concern is his health,” the source said.

Hopefully everything turns up well for Mobley, a genuinely good dude. And with the current state of affairs in New York, he definitely should do what’s best for him and his family.

    Enlarged hearts in basketball aint nothing to laugh at. If he calls it quits, more power to him.

    Cat’s still the shit.

  2. fallinup says:

    Damn…and on another sad note. Respects go out to Rodney Rogers and his family.

  3. Kevin says:

    Looking at Dime’s site, I see Cuttino is on top of Steve.

    (Sorry, had to do it.)

  4. JCARR says:

    Sad to hear… he should do what he feels is best. He shouldn’t endanger himself and risk his life. Cat has 9 lives.

  5. justice(knicks fan) says:

    R.I.P rodney rogers

  6. fallinup says:

    haha…Rodney Rogers aint dead. He’s just paralyzed from the shoulders down from an ATV accident.

    Reading his story on ESPN…the dude was a great guy and didn’t deserve it either.

    How did the trade go through then?

  8. Mr. K1X says:

    once you com to NY via trade ur career is over!!!! one way or the other.

  9. Kobeef says:

    Cat should take note of some of the recent heart failure related deaths in pro sports and step away while he still can.

    He’s made enough to live a good life and he should do that instead of risking dropping dead on the court.

    Sad news about Rodney. They guy was just getting used to living a normal life and then this happens.

  10. Richard Wellner says:

    Good to hear about ‘Cat’. We don’t need a faggot on the Knicks.

    I hope he goes and has gay sex and dies with his fag lovers.
    You won’t be missed, ‘Cat’.

  11. VINNY says:

    you know DICK you need some help! but then you white supremacist’s are all alike!

  12. doc says:

    At least now he can go and have some kids with Stevie Franchise killer.

  13. justice(knicks fan) says:

    @fallinup

    paralyzed from the waist down is dead…i wouldn’t wish that on anyone..r.i.p rodney..

    i don’t know whether wishing him well and hopeing he pulls a chris reeves and lives for a while is such a good thing, no sexy time or video games phuck…count ur blessings

  14. fallinup says:

    I kinda figured that dead is dead to me. But, fine, I just thought you thought that he was actually D.E.A.D. dead.

    But that’s cool, I guess he can be no sexy time or video games dead too.

  15. JCARR says:

    Why doesnt dime somehow block richard wellner?

  16. dapro says:

    Cutino “Cat” Mobley was my dude back in RI and H-town. He was a jacker along with Franchise but still he was legit threat and had one the quickest first steps in the leauge

    I hope he can continue to play but if not, I wish him well.

    On another note, since we’re talking about heart maybe he can donate some of his to Tim Thomas, Eddy Curry, and Jerome James.

    They clearly lack heart

  17. Tbone says:

    Is there any way we can ban Richard Wellner’s IP address from EVER posting on this site again?

    That’s all I want for christmas

  18. Tbone says:

    JCARR, you beat me to it, that guy really sums up what’s wrong with the world today
