I'm probably gonna skip the Liberty game or watch it on my laptop and have the Lynx vs Mercury game on TV.
Had no idea Lonnie Walker wasn’t signed

He'll be 38 then, there's a rule about how long you can offer deals to players who will be 38 during the course of the contract.
Going through some footage and saw these, they're not even a full year apart.
The first three he ever made in a game at 11 years old, this is only a couple months after he stopped using a size 6 ball.
12 years old, form is cleaner and he no longer heaves.
I wonder what he'll look like at 16, and it also makes me wonder what my own kid would look like. Also, people act like he's naturally good at sports, and everyone is all surprised but every single sport he's excelled at is something I'd play with him in my parents backyard. I don't know if I believe in natural talent anymore, not outside of something kids can't control which is height. Everything else is just skill and who practices more and which kid gets lucky and ends up tall.

By DY_nasty Go To Post^easily the best contentaye.
also, i do think there is still such a thing in natural talent, but liken it more to a faster learning rate or having extremely good hand-eye coordination that lets them more easily do stuff in extraordinary circumstances. like steph being phenomenal at hitting bullshit shots with a form or in a situation that no one obviously practices doing. or how quickly some guys pick up on tendencies and read the game clearly faster than anyone else. like, yeah, it takes work and study, but they also just pick up on that kind of stuff quicker than other people.
By reilo Go To Postlol at the idea of revenuelmao
This is probably my favorite series of plays from him during the season because of who it was against, it was a personal 7-0 run and late in the game. Before these two plays he cut to the basket from the same spot on the wing and scored over a big kid, so then he sets up wide against the 2-1-2 and spaces
One dribble pull up going left
The next time down the court he's in the same spot but the kid at the top of the 2-1-2 doesn't stunt over to him and he recognizes it and lets it fly
That was a playoff game they won vs Eagle Academy, they're a city power and their varsity team is the back to back PSAL champs. They've got serious players in their system.
Other plays on the season he had a rebound coast to coast full speed layup he finished with his off hand without slowing down, then on the next time down the floor he hit another leftie shot in traffic over a kid that was on his hip. That's it for now 😅, I'll have more in December when seasons starts, back to Wnba.

i love these posts
also, those camera angles are making me a bit nostalgic for covering my cousins' games in high school. their family was good friends with the coach and i was going to all the games anyway, so i ended up either filming or recording the game using a stat board for all their games. the stat board was more fun because then i could yell at the officials.
the stat board was kinda like this but no screen, only buttons:
I would track box stats as well as shot locations, substitutions, and lineups. After games, I would take it home and connect it to the printer port of my home pc and use the board's software to print out shot charts and other information for the coach.
i also got to run the score board and keep the official books a couple times each when there weren't enough able and willing people to do that.

also, it was the girl's team and my mom apparently kept the congratulation letter/scrapbook thing the team made for me when i graduated high school. i was also on the team bus with the girls for every away game. i learned more about high school girls through that experience than i did from dating some (no one on the team, though).
By reilo Go To PostDone for the year, that sucksDepends in theory could be back by Dec.

That's dope, I'm gonna get a stat app like that and track everything he does this year.
League has maybe 2 yrs before it belongs to Caitlin. She's in that Magic, Kidd, Nash, Stockton tier of passers, except she also isn't shy about trying to put 30 on you.

By You got 14 bricks right there? Go To PostThat's dope, I'm gonna get a stat app like that and track everything he does this year.If you do that live at games, I will tell you right now to get someone else to film and maybe a third person as a second set of eyes in case you missed something. The game moves faster than you can input the stats at time.
If you can’t get help at the games, I say film the game yourself and then do the stat board stuff at home while watching the recording back.

Once the shooting comes around it's gonna get ugly for the league. Her passing is on another level.

His father usually records highlights, luckily since he's going to 8th grade they'll have double as many home games now and they broadcast those online so I'll probably watch and track that way.
By domino Go To Postwonder if ESPN will rank Reese over Clark in the ROY standings again this week lmfaoESPN should force co-roty to set it off

Anyone with a pulse would help at this point. Also A'ja with 23/11 at the half 🤣
Fever vs Wings game is great, the shot making between Arike, Clark, Mitchell and Satou has been fire
