The NBA is a perimeter game. It is geared towards the offensive player. There's little to no hand checking and the lane isn't clogged because of the defensive 3 seconds. In the giant douche he gets mugged and grabbed every night. Not sure how effective Joe will be at the NBA level but it won't be because the league is too "physical".
joe would quit my early Saturday morning game at church
What? Not sure how standing still admiring the shot you think you’ve made is helpful in any way.
the Last thing a shooter thinks about is following their shot. If they happen to get one that bounces right back to them, it’s by pure chance, not some mentality that’s been drilled into them.
Probably but both are fucking stupid
Seasons over Rev, Purdue game confirmed it.
Correct. JW has been beaten back on defense after trying to chase down a brick on several occasions this season.
It’s in the top 5 of things that get yelled by parents.
Look at my sack!
over the back
Box out!!!
This. And it's not even a real call.
Also feel free to force some shots.
Gus Macker was great. Winning the Toilet Bowl trophy is a highlight of my life
My mom was throwing away all my trophies from youth sports and the Toilet Bowl trophy was the only one I asked her to keep.
I was on an antibiotic while playing in Gus Macker in high school and ended up with the worst sunburn of my life.
Yeah, it's totally OK to pump fake and create space for yourself with a quick dribble left or right but stay outside the line. You don't see bohannon doing that long two shit.
We wanted to win every trophy available so we got really drunk day one and then won the TB. We did it again because getting blackout drunk and playing basketball was fun. We let a team beat us that was so bad it was hard to lose. At one point a buddy said “guys it’s 5-4” as if we weren’t trying hard enough to lose. Well because we let the spaz team win they gave us the sportsmanship award that year. The Gus busters said it was they funniest thing they had seen. The depressing part of the story is the other team never caught on that we were throwing the game. They were pumped and celebrated the close victory.
Was a player on the spaz team a little sick and very sunburnt?
I don't remember Joe shooting a lot of mid-range, but he would fake the three, dribble three steps and look to get rid of it if he wasn't wide open by 10 feet.
Correct. He and CJ need it drilled into their head that every shot they pass up is a shot that is forced upon Bakari / Connor / Toussaint / Pemsl.
And them shooting contested shots is a higher percentage proposition.
Even on the times when he took it to the rack he was unsure of himself when trying to finish. Up until a few games ago, he had been fantastic at finishing. I cannot remember what game it was (maybe Minnesota?) where there was no one in front of him and he should have at worst been fouled and gone to the line. Instead he slowed down, hesitated and got blocked from behind. Something weird is going on in his head as has been said ad nauseam. At his best, he is one of the best players in the Big Ten. Lately, he is just another guy.
Who knows, I was wasted. I do remember one had a giant Batman tattoo on his chest. He played shirtless and in black sweatpants even though it was hot as balls.
Jogger is trying to make a joke, but I would have just dunked on his ass.
