ClutchCity.net Basketball Hangout???

Thursday would be the best possible day for me too! This will be cool! I better not transfer to Austin too soon!

Dude I am in big time! The basketball court has been calling me eversince the rockets got back in the gym. I have a feeling this could lead to great things for bbs members and hardcore rockets fans.
There could be a special sticky thread where we can talk about the games, who did what or who played dirty etc.

 

cool, i live like 5 minutes from shepherd and 11th so i'll play just about anytime. i still have some slow-down from a sprained ankle but it doesn't affect my jumpshot.

 

How is the rims on this place? Will the ball bounce hard on it?

I also want to know how the lighting of the place is. I play ball in the daytime at that West Gray Location, and when ever I face the windows, the light shines through, and I always miss, (not necessarily because of the lights.)

I am still in.

 

Already making excuses?

Not a problem if you swish your shots.

 

I wish I could move back to Houston from NY. That sounds like a great deal. There is nothing I would love more than to play a regular game with CC netters.

Anyway have fun. Maybe you guys can get a few teams and name them. Then post the rosters of each team here on the hangout, and I can follow your wins and losses and wish I was there even more.

 

Yeah, I'm making excuses. Might as well do it now, instead of doing it on the court.

 

See my first post in this thread... I'm short, white and out of shape. I don't have to make excuses on the court, god made them for me.

 

Man if I was there, I could play on the opposite team of voodoo, and we'd have one hell of a good match up.

 

Are you trying to say youre a short, slow, white out of shape, air ball shooting basketball player?

 

Hey, no one said anything about air balls.

I'm your standard Larry Bird/Charles Barkely Hybrid.

 

I am interested. Rockets don't usually play on Monday or Wednesday, maybe one of these days will work.

 

I like to think of myself as almost average height. I'm in OK shape, though my stamina has really gone downhill lately, and I usually can hit the rim, so I don't shoot that many airballs.

I play hard, and hussle, I try and do the little things, and sometimes blow some easy layups.

One thing I hate, and never do is stand around arguing about being fouled or who the ball went out on. I hate it when games stop so people can argue whether there was a foul or not, or who touched it last.

Did I mention how much I wish I could be in Houston to play with y'all?

 

The west-central New York State crowd should do something like this...

...oh wait, there isn't one.

 

Well???

 

What does "white" have to do with it?

I hear that all the time and don't get the relevance. Don't think I'm trolling, because that's where it all begins.

 

Not to start a fire, but to honestly interpret what I think it means....

I think when a pick-up basketball player says "white" they mean that they lack athleticism.

 

Well with reference to my last adventure on the court I'm "white" too.

See there, all done

 

Jeff,

What's the latest on this? Are Thursdays open?

AB,

I was just trying to be as derogatory as possible about my basketball skills and by current terms that is what I thought of. I'm only politically correct when it comes to other people, I throw it out the window when it comes to myself.
