exactly!
Don't they have the Hellman's Mayonaise banner for some thing or another? Ord/Jackskip/kern always claimed it was more legit than three of IU's banners.
We probably frequent different types of parties. We go to the bar….you guys go to a barn.
Muscle memory. It’s kind of like how I still know how to beat all the boxers in Mike Tyson’s punch out… hundreds of thousands of reps mean I’ll be able to make 3 pointers as long as my arms work and I’m able to stand.
sheep barn oh man, that's choice! Writers or you scribble these gems on napkins and rehearse?
You guys are what you are. It writes itself.
Well Michigan in their tune-up with a good Oakland team in Detroit shot 43% from three making 15 threes! Donaldson who played at Auburn, showed he will be one of the best PGs in the country. Their bigs (you said can't play away from the basket)
yeah blimpy like this guy and his coharts have. When they aren't posting on this site 50 times a day about their inferior product the last decade they get away to comic-com conventions I hear 4-5 times a year.
Plenty of hobbies, golf, woodworking, yard work, traveling, refinishing old furniture, and reading the good book!
how old are you? I have a shoulder injury (I'm sure it's a rotator cuff) that makes shooting from any distance, even FTs, a lot harder. It's weaker, but also like a mechanical "catch" and I just can't control the ball nearly as well. I can still shoot FTs OK, but not nearly as well and they just come out flat. When it was really bad, I'd try and shoot normally and the ball would only go a few feet. At least I haven't had the "other" dysfunction a lot of older guys get!
I'm 46... I've never played that. I'll have to give it a try. Quick count, -9 is pretty legit!!
-9 was a really good score for me. That's when I was coaching and didn't have the shoulder issue, so I was practicing it at least once a day or more (I had a hoop at home and work). Practicing it helps because you are really laser focused on swishes, not just makes. I remember one of our players saying, "wait, you can try and swish it?" It makes you automatically begin to shoot with more arc and look for that "perfect motion". As a result, a ton more of your "misses" still go in. I'd guess when I was practicing almost daily, I went from a 70s % FT shooter to closer to 85-90%. And, I never thought of myself as a shooter.
We had a specific hoop in our gym in college that made a distinct clicking noise when you swished it and it hit the bottom of the breakaway box. We didn't play this golf game, but my roommate and I would finish many practices with a bet on who could get the most clicks out of 20. The most either of us ever got was 14 (Me). There were many arguments, however, on what constituted a click. Lost in these competitions, and arguments, were any attention on actual misses. Most of these competitions we'd both hit all 20.
