    Hey, I would like to catch you guys up there tonight because I was thinking of going anyway. I could help you guys practice if you'd like, whether that be through playing with or against you, or playing defense on inbound plays or whatever.

    Basically I'm bored and I like playing basketball.

    How will I be able to recognize you guys? Will you be in jerseys?

    I emailed Omega earlier to let him know and to tell him to either post here or email me back to let us know if he is going. I still haven't gotten a response.

    What about Stack? Anyone get a hold of him?

    We usually play in the front courts. You'll know us because we are on the court because we win...


    or come close.

    If you see some guys actually "passing," "playing as a team," "playing both sides of the court," that's probably us.

    Sounds like my kind of ball.

    By front courts you mean the 2 behind the rock climbing wall, right? AAU teams have been taking up those courts lately. Just a heads up.

    Oh I didn't mean that they are staying up on those courts because they're good. They're younger kids, like 15-18 I think, and they actually have the court reserved for practice. Girls on one court, boys on the other.

    I don't think they start until 8pm or later though, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem for you guys.

    actually, that might be a problem. we're usually there till 9.

    do you know if they'll be there tonight? more people just means less courts and 20 nexts.

    Seems like they're there every time I go, from about 8-10pm or so.

    The other courts don't get really crowded though. Maybe a next or two on each. Obviously it's not an exact science, but I wouldn't think that it'd be too bad tonight.

    Thanks. Good games from you guys too. macalu decided to exploit my sagging help defense by draining 3's all over me lol. You guys were killin' us in the post too.

    I hope I didn't come off as a ball hog, because I know I shot a lot of deep pullup 3's and whatnot, but I hadn't played in a week or so and wanted to get a good number of shots up. I usually don't shoot so freely and I didn't want what you saw today to give you the wrong idea about how I play. Not sure if I came off that way or not, but sometimes I feel like I might.

    Anyway, I'd really enjoy playing with you all, but I'm waiting on a PM with the league details before I can make a decision. Again, thanks for the invite.

    Yea, good games again. Took us a little while to get reacclimated with each other since we didn't have Omega or Stack there tonight, but we got it going.

    I guess I need to borrow my son's baby powder cause that ball keeps slipping out of my hand trying to lay it up sometimes.

    ClutchCityReturns, you got some game dude. But, I forgot your name again. LOL!

    Omega, Stack... missed you guys out there.


    If ClutchCity is being added onto our team (instead of replacing someone), I need to know ASAP so I can get a jersey for him and have it in time for our first game.

    Haha, the name is Kurt. I get called Maloney around the basketball courts though, if that's easier to remember you can call me that.

    It's Mike, right? :eek:

    I was supposed to get a PM or an e-mail with the league details from the other Mike (I think that's his name...the guy in the gray NY shirt). Once I get that I can make a decision about whether I can join you guys or not. Chances are good, but I don't want to make a committment and then have to back out, you know?

    Thanks for the compliment too. I get by for my height, but I'm still bitter that I'm not taller because my game has always been more like a small forward than a point guard or shooting guard. I remember my pediatrician telling me that I'd be 6'3" and I nearly cried because I wanted to be like 6'6"+ so I could be in the NBA. These days I'd sell both my nuts for a dime to be 6'3".

    Kurt! That's right!!! LOL!

    hmmm, I don't see any resemblence (game or looks) to Maloney at all. Maybe a Kirk Hinrich.

    And yea, it's Mike. Including me we have three Mike's on the team (Biggie & MJ)

    If it is confusing, everyone can call me mogrod or Ben Wallace. lol!!!
