RIP Chocolate Thunder. The Planet Lovetron called home it's favorite son.

Watched his Top 20 dunks today and boy he could move for a guy his size.

I just read an article on MSN Sports that said that his Chocloate Thunder nickname was given to him by, of all people, Stevie Wonder during a locker room visit.
