While it’s Christmas morning here in Los Angeles and it is and should be a day to rejoice the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, it is also a sad day now that I have time to reflect on the passing of Coach Ron Jacobs. While I only had the pleasure to play for Ron a short time due to ‘basketball politics,’ and unbeknownst to us both, we would be connected in Philippine basketball forever.
