JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

I don't know but I think there's some issues (health?) with his son. Remember he lost his father. I don't know if is mother is still in his life. It's most likely family related. Kid's been through a lot.

Tearful Jameer Received Text About His Late Father
Posted on Dec 1, 2007 9:53:49 PM

Magic point guard Jameer Nelson was overcome with emotion after Friday night's game in Phoenix over a text message sent by someone that mentioned his late father.

"I'm OK," Nelson, 25, said Saturday after practice in Los Angeles, where the Magic are preparing to face the L.A. Lakers on Sunday. "Sometimes that happens. I've been dealing with that. I've had to be strong about. Sometimes it's tough."

Magic officials cleared the locker room of media after Nelson began crying after reading the text. Teammates consoled him.

Nelson's father, Pete, died this summer at his job-site on the docks in Chester, Pa. His body was found in the water a day after he went missing. Authorities ruled his death as an accident, but Jameer has wanted a more thorough investigation.
