Tyler and Ben Hansbrough have accomplished an incredible feat – playing professional basketball in the NBA. It’s even more special that with the Pacers, they are playing together for the first time since their high school days. 汉堡兄弟在人生中已达到很不错的成就, 那便是能在NBA打球, 上次兄弟俩同一队 是在高中时. Their oldest brother, Greg, attained a win that tops anything Tyler or Ben will ever do on the basketball court— he beat brain cancer. Diagnosed at an early age, Greg faced incredible odds for survival and he overcame them. 汉堡兄弟其实还有位大哥, Greg, 他的成就更胜於两位弟弟, 那就是他打败了脑癌病魔. In typical Hansbrough fashion, Greg’s toughness and drive helped shape who is he today, but it wasn’t easy. The eldest Hansbrough was in a fight for his life and then had to learn to walk, talk and do everyday things again. "Having to learn to walk again," Ben said about his brother, "and doing all that stuff really has inspired us in ways that can't be explained." "It was real tough," Tyler said. "Especially when you love somebody like that and you see them struggling. But, you know, the way he battled and fought through it, it was an inspiration to me. And it's something I'll always look up to him for." Greg 有着汉堡家族典型的坚毅不屈, 凭藉此韧性对抗病魔, 并且克服种种复健上的辛苦. 汉堡说 "这一切真的很不容易, 当看到脑癌患者辛苦地与病魔对抗, 特别能感同身受" 兄长对抗并战胜病魔, 也激励了汉堡 So, when Tyler received a mailing from Mario Lichtenstein, the co-founder of Voices Against Brain Cancer, they wanted to help the cause. Thursday night, all three brothers united in the practice gym of Bankers Life Fieldhouse, along with about 80 others, for ‘Hoops with the Hansbrough,’ a night honoring Greg, other brain cancer survivors and the doctors who treat them. There were also about a dozen silent auction items that helped raise money for the foundation. 因此, 汉堡也希望为脑癌患者近一份力, 三兄弟连袂出席活动为脑癌基金会募款. Tyler and Ben are the first professional athletes to lend their name for brain cancer, according to Lichtenstein. A little known fact: Brain tumors are the leading cause of solid tumor cancer death in children under the age of 20. Teammates Gerald Green, Orlando Johnson, and other Pacers staff members were on hand for the event, as well as longtime Pacers player, Jeff Foster. "For them to do a gesture like this for me as well for the brain cancer community," Greg said, "it's pretty fantastic. And it just shows you guys what great people I have and am lucky to call family." Tyler 与 Ben 是最先响应关於脑癌慈善的职业运动员. 小绿, OJ 与佛爷也一同参与这个慈善活动 --
