I don't blame them. I always did the same shyt even before curry was in the league. Passing is so fukking hard so that's why I have so much respect for those that are good at it.

When I get the ball I literally have tunnel vision, like I can't even see or hear anything but the basket. And I can't shoot, dribble or finish very well. :mjcry:

practice dribbling two balls at once, especially when you are warming up during a game, it gets your muscle memory on point... I can dribble like 2-3x better when I do this before a game.

Dribble both in rhythm, then dribble em at different times, then throw one in between legs etc. all the shyt you see Curry doing... and always practice keeping your head up - only look at the ball out of the very corner of your eye - your peripheral vision.

You gotta get dribbling down to a habit by practicing it when you aren't playing, so it doesn't take anything in your mind to focus on when you are in the game, then you can make way better passes in games. But you also gotta learn to pass by just doing it in games, cant just learn it in the gym. You gotta make mistakes in games and instead of getting pissed like most people, learn what you did wrong IN a game. The more serious the game, the more you can learn from your mistake.

But three's is how you win in pick-up ball.

If you're playing 1's and 2's, that'd be like the NBA having 2's and 4's.

Yep.

I saw a nicca brought the ball up with one hand in his pocket. When he got to the top of the key,
he pulled his hand out the pocket and threw a handful of baby powder at the the dude guarding him
said "POOF", and drove up...

:dead: :Dead: :dead: man these and1 examples got me fukkin struggling to breathe :dead:I was in middle school/high school when and1 + allen iverson was popular so of course we would all be struggle knock offs of what we saw :dead:

guess u werent around for the And1 fukkery in the early 2000's...this one nikka took his shoe off and threw it at me, and shot a fadeway jumper from 30 feet :scust:
explain the fukkery b and how it came about, maybe i was too young for those days (i was 7 around '03) but when i played nothing crazy happened

No what are you having trouble with?

Rec ball never recovered from the AND 1 era,Steph Curry has nothing to do with anything.

You understand?
No because that's incorrect. Did you even witness the And1 Era? At what point were they about glorifying jacking up long 3's? :heh: Never.

Blatant attempt at deflection on your part. If kids were out there still throwing the ball off the defender and you know, doing actual And1 antics, you might have a point. But they arent. Theyre taking bad, off-balance 3pt shots as quickly as they can and shimmying if one goes in. That's Steph Curry.

Fix your cape, it seems to be obstructing your vision. :coffee:
