    I saw a video of this last night... the kid was on fire and the crowd was going nuts... nice to be reminded of the sheer joy of hoops. I wish the kid the best.

    When he goes up for the three you just give him a little punch in the solar plexis. The ref never sees it and it will make him flinch and miss.

    wow. even taking out the autism, scoring 20 points in the only 4 minutes of basketball you ever get to play would be a great story, with it, quite inspirational.

    I was watching the video, and suddenly I was like sniffing and my eyes was tearing up. WTH man.

    BTW if they make this into a movie, it would be the perfect movie to take a date.

    Yeah, they showed this on TNT last night after the game. Charles said the coach should be fired for not playing this kid sooner and waiting until the last game of the season.

    You gotta know that'll be something that kid can tell his grandkids about someday. Good stuff.

    It is stories like this that reaffirm my faith in a loving, caring God and not the vengeful God of the "Left Behind" series.

    Wow, what a moving story. Unreal.

    It is a post like this that reminds me that there is no God, else He would have made us all happy by not allowing "Joey" to be on the air at all. :(

    The brightside of having a choice in life is not turning on the TV and watching dumb shows. ;)
