Really hoping maybe we can figure something out next weekend, get more commitments a little earlier so everyone knows its a go?
Barring any blazers home game, i can make time all weekend but would just like to have enough commitments to know we can get some games going a day or two ahead of time. I just tossed new line on the wacker and am about to go to town myself.
But im not the end all by any means, other than i was also dviss’s ride. :(

Can we try to nail down a time next weekend that works for at least 6 people confirmed and then anyone else who shows is icing on the cake?
I think we had 10-12 people when we met up at jason lee, no?
@VanillaGorilla i know you werent there. :)
 
Zero chance I make it sorry. In my grandfather's garden atm planting corn
Per his instructions. Cause after all my life doing this I still don't know how to plant properly.

You've never made it to one of these and you're supposed to be on the team.

And I'm purposely cutting a bit of my income off in hopes I can make them.
Aka turning down a job offer that I get every summer.

Oh and FYI. No matter where the court is. It's at least an hour drive for me.

Shouldnt they have either been running a lay up line or getting wide open shots? I could see them having a hard time stopping you guys because of the height problem, but seems like they shouldve been able to get whatever they want on offense...

One under the rim, one on the ball. You couldve added Kingspeed to their team and we still would've won.

Theres still an open guy though... All they have to do is pass the ball moves faster than people do, and they should have decent shots. Im not trying to disrespect you and HJ, just seems odd to me.

Except we cover ground and can take awaya anything within 15 feet.

This is a massive disrespect to our greatness!

In all honesty though it helps when the court we're playing on is a little narrower than normal.

Decided to come shoot around for a few minutes. Court isn't half bad.

This is gonna turn into another "contest". How about you choose 2 other guys that have shown up (except you can't pick @dviss1) and play us 2 on 3? Losers buy lunch for the winners afterwards.
 
Sorry but 2 on 3 and the 3 should get good shots like 90% of the A 3 pointer is 23 feet (ok 24) even my fat self could stand on the corner or a wing and hit open shots a pretty good percentage of the time. Again not trying to disrespect you two, Ive played with HJ a couple times now and that size + strength is legit. Just dont really see how two guys could keep 3 guys from getting good looks. You guys might be fast but even NBA guys arent faster than the ball.

We never said we wouldn't give up open looks though. Outdoors there isn't really a single person who has consistently knocked down outside jumpers (except for when Bones just happened to get streaky when he played me) so it really doesn't matter how open the looks are.
 
Im gonna head over there for a little while. Vanilla gorilla if you have time Ill be there in 20ish
