    Oh, how truly heartbreaking! I cannot even begin to imagine.....My condolences to Coach and his family. Is there anything we, as a fan community, can do? Send flowers or sign a group ecard or something to let him know we're thinking of him? It's just so sad.

    If we can put something together I'm certainly willing to donate to the effort in some way.

    While any death in the family is sad, there honestly can't be anything worse than the death of a child. Simply devastating news. :(

    From the chron blog:

    "Alexandra “Sasha” McHale, the daughter of Rockets coach Kevin McHale, passed on Saturday. She was 22.

    McHale has been on a leave of absence to be with his daughter and his family in Minneapolis since Nov. 10. His daughter has long battled lupus, an auto-immune disease, and was hospitalized with a related condition."


    So sad...so young

    There is more to life than just basketball.

    Much as i want him back to guide the team, it's a no brainer that he deserves all the time in the world to recover from this tragedy. :(

    Godspeed Sasha McHale.

    No words. I'm glad KMac got to spend the last few weeks of her life with her.

    so sad.

    my idea for a tribute to her for all twitterers:
    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Let's go rockets!!! <a href="https://twitter.com/search/%23rednation">#rednation</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/search/%23clutchcity">#clutchcity</a></p>&mdash; Sasha McHale (@SashaMcHale) <a href="https://twitter.com/SashaMcHale/status/264879125930598400" data-datetime="2012-11-03T23:57:59+00:00">November 3, 2012</a></blockquote>
    <script src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

    instead of creating your own "hype-up" tweet before rockets games, just retweet that one (her last tweet). forever.

    RIP, Sasha.
