for me it had to be when Chipper Jones & Bobby Cox were no longer apart of the Braves. the Braves were my fav team growing up and as long as i remember these 2 were apart of the team. i dont think i could name 5 Braves these days so seeing them depart was the last link to my favorite childhood team. also Grant Hill and Jason Kidd. i still remember them winning co-rookies of the year
RG3 made me feel old because he was born in the 90's :old:
Or other players kids now in the league (or near the league) like Patrick Ewing Jr... now there Tim Hardaway Jr. (I bought the killer cross-over straps nike joints in 8th grade) Glen Rice Jr. Howie Long Jr. the list goes on and on.

Prolly when Vince carter retires. Not his biggest fan but his career is the one I remember most from start to beginning.

Not A Retirement But Having Tim Hardaways Son On My Team Really Made Me Reflect On Life Bruhs

Yeah...that gets me more than the retirements do. Seeing Patrick Ewing Jr., Tim Hardaway Jr., and thinking about how I watched their dads play each other in the play-offs as a kid has me like :what:....

Lately, the ages of the guys in the drafts blow my mind. Greg Oden's a year younger than me.

I remember when we first drafted him I was 13 in middle school. :heh:

When he retired this past season I was a 30 year old man. :wow:

Shaq. I started becoming really interested in basketball in 1992 because of the Dream Team which lead right into Shaq's rookie year. So he was always a regular fixture when I was watching the NBA. Then he retired and I didn't even realize how old he was. Time flew by fast!
