Hoop Dreams

Those boys are naturally good at basketball but they refuse to work on the basics. On the left, Dylan is working on his half court buzzer beater (he actually made a couple). I finally got Sam working on lay ups but they are not falling like they should for a kid that will taller than 99.9 percent of the players he will see this year. They have been the leading scorers on their team the last three years but still seem to think that going 2-10 from the perimeter is better than 12 easy lay ups.

Dylan steals balls like they are going out of style, beats everyone back to the hoop, then pulls up and shoots when no one is around. Sam just needs to post, take a pass, turn and bank one off the board. No one can touch him. I hope they figure all his out this season.
