Wow...RIP. I didn't know that was Mark Jackson's brother. But now that I think about it, they do look and sound alike.

off topic...one of the things I hated about the And 1 announcer was when he would say "E Mano E mano". Come on man, at least get the phrase right. It's "Mano a Mano."

lol Yeah the pic of them side by side is nuts. It's like 200 pounds and a couple shades of skin tone and they are the same.

I haven't heard, but if I had to guess I'd say a heart attack.

Escalade, big man with a big heart, kept And1 afloat through their ups and downs. RIP Troy.

No logical reason for a man his size to be able to handle the rock the way he did.

Must have learned from big brother. JVG said on Wednesday's telecast of the Thunder/Spurs game that Mark and Troy were extremely close despite the fact that they were 10 years apart.

Sad story. RIP Troy.
