    OK, this story aside (seeing as it has nothing to do with the following), I say NBA Cares = In-Your-Face thinly veiled Hypocrisy.

    There was never any doubt in my mind that Oak was legit about his charity work. The dude cares. He cares a lot.

    That cat is extremely creepy BTW

    Of course Sean May had a charity too..But he ate all of them, plus I'm pretty sure buying doughnuts from Krispy Kreme year round doesn't help the kids

    As long as NC has a team, I'm going to cheer for it

    I think it would be the hardest thing to try to help these kids and more often than not have your efforts amount to little more than some hope and extra time for their families. However, I've met a couple pediatric oncologists and they claim that children have such fight an energy that they often have a better chance of bouncing back from dire illnesses such as leukemia. It's really amazing how powerful the will to live is, and you've got to respect anyone, such as these players and doctors, who are doing what they can to help kids keep fighting.
