    I am old and slow, but have a decent jump shot and am very good at passing the ball, especially if people cut....I am the back door cutting and passing MFing man...

    I pine for the days when I was much better, the mind is willing but the body is weak.

    PS. You want to shut down RGirl? Get closer, spread wider on defense, and force her to go sideways, she shoots the ball from her shoulder, a very nice shot, but easy to contest if played correctly.

    Just being nice to her.

    There is a legendary story out there of a girl guarding me, and I blocked her shot and then I apologized about it. And the girl asked what the hell I was apologizing for.

    If she was a dude, we'd be sharing shirts. It's just a comfort level thing. Mabye in the next few weekends, I'll be guarding her in her bra.

    Kam,

    On your jumper, if you would get balanced before elevating, maybe take like half a beat, I think it might go in more for you, there didn't seem to be much wrong with your form....you just looked off balance, at least from the short videos I was watching.

    DD in Kam's defense the wind was nuts that day! The ball was getting pushed around in the air alot. We all made an effort to get closer to the basket.

    Good point, that effects a ton, and trust me, I am not criticizing, just pointing out what I observed in the few minutes that I watched the video.

    A glimpse into the basketball mind of DaDakota........

    :grin:

    Were you the big guy always trying to get to the right side for the right handed off the glass shot? If so, you used your body quite well.

    If you listen to the last video CCR and I made a reference to you. Something like "What if DD rolled up to this b*tch to hoop". "But he would have to bring his laptop to post while playing" Lol!

    Heh, I would love to play, but I don't get to Houston hardly ever, and only to go to a Rox game etc.

    And I can post from my phone, no need for a laptop these days.

    ;)

    It would be fun to do a DD's Rocket talk and interview you guys though......

    I'm in this weekend.

    I haven't been out to "josh" around with you guys in over a month, makes me feel like poopy. :(

    Not to mention the last time I came out I played like it.

    After waking up this morning and still feeling like a bag of mashed assholes, I'm going to ahead and pull myself out of the possible category too.

    By the way, I will be there also. Most likely right around 3 so I can get a decent run in and still get back to watch the game at 6.

    4:30, actually. But I made plans to go the Greek Festival today, lured by promises of delicious food.
