Default Sad day for NBA.....Sweet Lou Retiring

Lou Williams, the NBA's all-time leading bench scorer and three-time Sixth Man of the Year award winner, has officially announced his retirement from the NBA . Also a member of the 50-pt club. Please share what you have of him! Here are some of my personal favorites.

Lou seems like an interesting guy, and his career was a lot better than I expected. Here's a Lou from a set:

Those are some pretty awesome Lous...

Makes me old thinking a guy nicknamed "The Future" is now in the past.

His only career triple-double came off the bench as well. He made a really nice career for himself!
