I knew since 12 I was going to Penn State so it wasn't really a realization more so a stated fact

senior year, we were checking the hs scouting reports, realized we ain't measure up and just said "yo keep training and try and walk on sophomore year".....never did it so I'm mad about that til this day

but mentally I tapped out around 8th/9th grade when females and being cool became my main focus

I was a beast my freshman year in hs. Averaged 20 and 6.:gladbron: The hood was a warzone, I got mixed up in that streetshyt and got launched from the squad:scusthov: Got locked up when I was 18 and was giving nikkas the biz at rec on a daily basis. :win: All of a sudden, CO's start bringing nikkas from off the street to hoop against us. Team full of hunkies lookin extra :flabbynsick: .. except this one cat. Game start and CO's tell me to guard him :popcorn: Man, that whiteboy summoned his inner:mjpls: and starte bombin on my ass:smh: Swear to Gawd that whiteboy had like 60. nikka splashed 12 consecutive 3's right in my muthafukkin face:sadcam: nikkas in the crowd counted every last one. Come to find out he hooped on a D3 squad. Whiteboy was cold. I knew I was washed after that L

Never thought I was subpar as an athlete. I could jump with the best of them. Could run. Just was too short and pursued the wrong damn sport.

basically. My 40 time is probably between a 4.5 and 4.7. And this is still after years of not even playing sports or being that active. Dunked my first ball in grade 10 when I was around 5'9 or 5'10 (but it was outdoor at a park so the net may have been a littttttle lower. Did it off 2 feet though.) Got the reflexes of spiderman. 6 Foot 1 and 185 lbs right now. Very agile.

I shouldnt have ever stopped playing soccer...but even then living in Canada the odds are against you. If I was in the states I woulda played football.

SHot out to Tristan Thompson though. Alumnus from my highschool

I went 3/3 against Vin Baker, and Im 6'0. Took his big ass to the perimeter and lit him up. Guarding him in the post was an issue though...

Thats when I realized I never could have made it. Dude pivotted and knocked me over with the quickness.

I was a state champion in high school in a different sport too and though im out of college now, Im just now coming to the realization that any career in sports will be coming from the coaching or front office perspective and not from the players perspective. shyt sucks

Vin from the Sonics. He must be what? six-ten? why would you expect to be able to guard him in the post

shyt, that should have made you focus on sports even more.

I dont know. Blind pride? I thought if I fronted him I could force some bad entry passes and then he'd check out of the game...but he got mad that i hit 3 in a row on him so he started goin off. Took a picture with him after and talked to him about his trip to China with Gary Payton. Cool dude.
