I stayed getting picked last at school til I got put in a YMCA summer basketball league. I couldn't dribble for shyt. Coach taught me what a 1st step was supposed to be and my crappy handles didn't matter again until my Jr year in high school YMCA ball did a lot of good shyt for me as a kid.

Played AAU both years. I feel like my skill level & IQ increased exponentially during those seasons. Coach was running the offense through me out the post. By time I got to high school, my passing out the mid/low post was . I could thread the needle through any seam in the defense, I was even surprising my teammates with passes they didn't even know were there.
I miss basketball. Curse these shytty knees, I just wanna play ball again

My AAU experience in high school was the most fun ever. We didn't have traditional layup lines in practice it was turned into this game called Bang. You had to try to dunk on your teammate

Two completely different levels lol

AAU is just a hustle..shyt was just all around stressful

We used to do that sometimes too. It would get you so hyped before the game . It was the perfect combination of explosive warm ups & competitive excitement

brehs i use to be so competitive, i wanted to shyt on my teammates so much to prove i was the best player on the team.
good times though.
