Well in true Steve style he didn't give up, rather he went on a mission to learn everything and anything that would improve his game. Everyday he goes to the basketball at our gym to practice his skills. He reads basketball blogs and watches videos on line that teach him about foot work, how to shoot and dribble. He has even found some guys at the gym that play just for fun every Tuesday night, so now he plays with them as well. This is all to improve his game so that he can feel confident and comfortable playing on the Monday night league. I say he is trying out for the NBA! His body is slowly falling apart, last night after he came back from playing he had to put Tiger Balm on his knees and other joints because he was sore :-) but he's not giving up. He got his confidence back and feels great when he comes back home from playing on Monday nights.
Here are some pictures of Steve practicing. I have to admit he is getting really good.
Steve's #1 fan.
You should get a T-Shirt made saying that! So she could wear it to his games!
ReplyDeleteSteve I really hope you can play Basket-ball better than dressing your little girl cos boy you suck and have no skills what so ever in this field. Any way i will ask the whole community to pray for you may be God can make a miracle with you in Basket-ball cos i really believe that you need a miracle to be a able to play basket with these players and i suggest that you stop practicing and start praying instead Cos if God can give Abraham a son at 99 year he can make you play a little bid better.
ReplyDeleteOh .. i forgot. can you please advise us when you score your first point cos i want to be able to tell people here that their prayers have been answered.
ReplyDeleteOh .. by the way you look good in those pictures.. nice body ..abs..muscles and all. So you shouldn't be very upset cos you can't have it all, either you have the looks or the brain (and the basket-ball skills).
