This is really cool. I remember playing 3 on 3 pickup as a young teenager against a guy in a wheelchair. Thinking that a tough defense would be "unfair" to him, I gave him room to shoot.

After he sunk the third while I was literally standing underneath his front wheels, arms extended, I realized that he was just a great player, regardless of disability. I was so humbled by his skill and dedication that I didn't even mind getting my butt kicked.
another story about how someone with a disability overcomes adversity and his disability. Let the media start milking this for all its worth to make us feel like s**t.
