    Spurs guard Tony Parker rides a camel at a stretch of the Great Wall of China on the outskirts of Beijing. Could that be Eva Longoria in the background?

    Boki: Y'know, kid, I'm a great NBA player. I can teach you all I know. AND I'm Yao's best friend.
    Kid: Mom make him stop! Please! For the love of all things great and pure, make him stop!!!

    Tony Parker has demonstrates his success with the perennial hall-of-fame pick-up line, "Hey, so... um... you wanna ride, ride?"

    Though the jokes are funny, you can't help but feel bad for some of those kids...orphans born with HIV...holy crap. Damn. That just sucks.

    I gotta with Kim on this one. There were some really funny lines in this thread so far, but there are just some things you just don't joke about.

    [ fair disclosure: even so, the "There's the exit" line did make me laugh out loud ]

    I like this "Basketball w/o Borders" program, I think it's a real nice thing for these players to reach out to less fortunate kids.

    That camel probably could have done a better job defending Chauncey Billups in the Finals than Parker did.
