[h1]Chris Paul will honor a boy whose wish to see the Hornets went unfulfilled[/h1]
Cancer victim tribute afoot
Thursday, May 08, 2008
By Katy Reckdahl Staff writer


Before tonight's playoff game, New Orleans Hornets superstar point guard Chris Paul will write the name "Brian" on his shoes, paying tribute to an 8-year-old fan who died Monday night before he could meet his basketball hero.

Brian, who had cancer, wore his Chris Paul jersey nonstop, said Michael McMyne, president of A Child's Wish of Greater New Orleans, an all-volunteer nonprofit that helps fulfill the wishes of about 100 critically ill Louisiana children each year. McMyne asked that Brian's last name not be used to respect the privacy of the grieving family.

Brian's wish was simple: He wanted to go to a Hornets game.

So McMyne got him tickets to Monday night's playoff game against the San Antonio Spurs.

But at the last minute, a friend of Brian's family called to cancel. The boy had been rushed to the hospital with a high fever, she said. He died hours later.

In his final weeks, Brian told his family that he knew he was going to heaven and that he wanted to meet Jesus wearing his Chris Paul jersey.

Someone within the Hornets organization sent around an e-mail telling Brian's story. It caught the eye of Paul and Hornets owner George Shinn. Both cried.

"It was very touching to me. Tears welled up in my eyes," said Shinn, who sent flowers and a letter to the family and offered to help with funeral costs. The family, overwhelmed with grief, was touched by his kindness but declined. The location and time of the funeral also are private.

Shinn and his wife hoped to attend the funeral with Paul and his parents. But the team will be on road at the time, so that isn't possible, Shinn said. The family plans to bury Brian in his favorite jersey, as he requested.

Footwear tributes aren't new, Shinn said. But usually the name is directly connected to the player. His mother. A family member. A favorite coach. "The NBA allows you to do that, to honor that person," Shinn said.

Shinn has never before seen a player write a fan's name on his footwear, "particularly a fan that the player hadn't even met," he said.

The tribute is "above and beyond imagination," McMyne said. "This genuinely heartfelt response by Chris Paul made this delicate family feel fortunate as they grieve their angel."

If you actually believe those are fake

D-Wade is signed to Converse, which is owned by Nike, which Jordan Brand is a division of. I just think its the flash that 's making the gray look likethat

 

[airgolden2123]

^^Nah there is a definite good chance those are fake. Those pants are to match the Air Jordan XI IE lows that came out last summer (Summer 2007) and the XIscame out in 2001. There is no way Wade kept those fresh for 6 years, the laces are too thin, the front toe is too short, those are pretty far from authentic.

 

[you big dummy]

^ pretty sure those are a special makeup pair for Dwade that he got along with those pants.

 

[gameover2]

SMH at everyone here trying to be all omniscient saying everything celebrities wear are fake.

 

[thezephyr777]

B-Easy in Jordan. Lets hope he signs with them.

Rudy Gay

That Uconn team he was on ALWAYS had nice kicks. They had 10+ different shoes for the year.


It isn't like D-Wade goes out and buys his sneakers. He probaley just gets them for free or whatever.

That doesn't mean anything. Just because they signed a contract it doesn't mean they could get anything. With the money he's making I'msure he bought them.

[blackcat23mj]

must be nice to get all the PE hookups when you want them...im sure pops can just have them whipped up with a snap of a finger.

 

[f3djam]

Oh and the old guy at the end of the bench, yeah none other then my dude Lester Earl. Damn shame what some knee injuries did to that guys career.

Damn, Lester was that dude. Especially his attack on the rim in the 96 hs sdc
