    That is tough as they need to do it all. Some skills can only be fine tuned in solo workouts, otherwise they don't get the repetitions. But they also need to work out in the weight room and they also have to play in pick up games.

    I think he is doing it the right way. Fine tune his game/body in a safe environment where he won't get hurt. Then when September 1 rolls around get your new teammates at the Blazer work out facility and work on chemistry every day for a month before camp starts.

    Yesterday he posted a bunch of photos on Facebook, if you're on Facebook you can see them there.

    Not sure why you can't see them in here.

    @Denny Crane I often have a similar issue. On my laptop, when using Firefox, I usually can't see embedded items - I have to switch over to Safari in order to see them.
    On my work computer (also Mac), I can see most stuff when using Firefox, but occasionally something that's embedded doesn't show up.

    Anything you post to facebook becomes their property. You are being assimilated.

    Ok thanks Sly, is there a toggle either on S2 or facebook to allow something to show up when posted.

    I didn't post anything on Facebook, Lillard did. If you're trying to say that since I posted embed links from Facebook into the forum they now own S2 then cool! They're evil plan to get their very own sports forum has worked!

    No I was making an uneducated assumption that the links weren't working because facebook doesn't like to share with others site unless they get money.

    On this site, in posts, you make a reference to the embedded items which are hosted on some other site's servers. Your browser is supposed to fetch those and show them. There's no guarantee your machine can reach those other servers over the internet at any given time. When you can't, tweets and other embedded media won't show up.

    It could be firefox is blocking stuff, too. They've become really paranoid recently.

    Huh. Okay. I don't know how this tech stuff works - just thought it was weird that the site operates differently on my three computers.

    The site works great for me on phone, tablets, laptop and desktop, plus an older laptops running Linux.

    I don't use Firefox though. It's almost certainly to do with some software on your computers or work/school/isp network.

    If you browse this site at work, and your company blocks Twitter, the tweets won't display in posts.

    This site probably isn't blocked, it's not well known enough.

    Ok I learned something, when I am signed into S2 (great site) it will not show what people post from facebook, using Google chrome, but if I sign in incognito and S2 does not know it is me the pictures are there. My apologizes for leading this thread astray I will go play with preferences and see if I can change it. Warning not tech savy.
    Thanks for your help!!!

    No need to apologize, that's interesting. I'm glad you said something.

    One thing people don't realize is passing is 2/3s Nall handling. If you have great handles, you have a great feel for the ball. You can also survey the court while doing whatever you want with the ball. You don't even realize what the balls doing, its like the balls part of your body. Its also a lot easier to pass off the dribble when your handles good. You're able to have your hand in the perfect spot when it comes back from the ground, allowing you quickly and effectively throw pin point passes.
