Zion shutting down the club!!!!

 

[tlance]

Possible his confidence level improved because his shooting improved?

That would be the obvious conclusion from any sane person.

 

[tlance]

Nonsense!!!

you know dam well you can work on your shot till the skin comes off the tips of your fingers . if you ain’t composed, you ain’t performin…. Mental end is as important as physical. Randle has to do more than work on his shot.

speakin of which , played my 2nd pickup game yesterday after 2 years… feelin every bit of it too….
How bout you

Yes, that is true.

And it still doesn’t mean that your assessment of Randle is accurate.

If it is a confidence issue, the player will perform well in workouts, just not the game. Randle didn’t look like a good shooter in workouts either.

Haven't hooped yet since Covid started but went back to work out for first time a couple weeks ago. I knew it would hurt some but totally forgot how bad it can be after not working out for a long period. Holy Hell did it hurt...been getting better each time since though.

 

[Pastafazul]

Wait a minute......now you're Confucius?

No , I’m confusion..

No, this is coming from a PLAYER, not a POSTER

You give yourself way too much credit.

at this point just hoping to get the chance to play again soon. I'll definitely know when I need to stop if it comes to that.

Lol, PC LOAD LETTER!

 

[tlance]

Lol, PC LOAD LETTER!

True statement.

 

[tlance]

There is just no possible way you could have played as much basketball as me. Not even close.

That is, unless you are lying about your baseball career.

like all athletes train the exact same way, if you play basketball , you have the same exact talent.

@Wamu

I will let you deal with this.

You are not a basketball player dude. You don’t have any special insight on basketball. None.

Oh for fuck's sake.

 

[Pastafazul]

This is exactly what the fack is wrong with everything today. Y’all allow yourselves to be brainwashed into thinking what some people say and write is Gospel.

this isn’t rational thinking , it’s dangerous!

Holy crap where did you dig that gem up from?

 

[shopson67]

Wait, that means you can't be prejudiced though? Because you have a white wife?

Yep, just like having a black friend. Free pass...
