    I was at the game when Rickey broke the all time stolen base record. I shot t picture of him holding up the bag, and he signed it for me.

    I always thought Della Street was the unsung hero.

    Mason did lose one case

    Just setting @HCP straight on who was THE original HCP. He'll always be a cheap imitation.

    I think @hoopsjock might give you a run for your money.

    I'm not sure you can guard me either but, I've never really been a scorer so you might win a 7 game series. But your not sweeping me!

    Nah. My game isn't as translateable to outdoor halfcourt. You haven't seen me play to my true ability yet.

    I've locked up D1 players before. I could guard you. You were missing rim in FTs...

    I wish y'all would play in my league lmao.

    Yeah. "Brick." Dame's been in the league for 7 years. A guy yelling "Brick" caused him to go off on a one quarter scoring rampage.

    I think there is a name for this.....

    Like I said before if I was 15 years younger it would be a battle with Bones and I. Honestly, I can't move quick enough laterally anymore with my foot issues. I could score on him but he'd probably win.

    I like to play off of teammates, pass, and try to make others better instead of just go one on one so my style is more suited for a team game. I also prefer to play full court and more up tempo where I can use my ball handling and passing in a more open area but it's fun to play 3 on 3 too.

    I never said I'd win, you're really good, but I've held my own against plenty of D1 and NBA players in my life so I wouldn't back down and certainly wouldn't make it easy on you.

    From the 3 on 3 footage I saw Id just like to say with all due respect to you and HJ, dviss moves like he’s using a teleporter compared to everyone else out there. The shooting didnt seem to be there. Ive played with D1athletes and a few ex NFL players and id say he looked every bit as quick as they did. now, I know it was video’s and nothing all that long but unless youve got a whole different level to get to Im not sure you could lock him up, maybe sag off and dare him to beat you from out there would work, but that man can move.

    No offense to @dviss1, but he's not as quick as D1 guards. He's fast as shit once he gets going (or so he tells me), but top speed and acceleration are different.

    We can test this out so I can prove myself to you...

    I'm not humble when it comes to actually playing. I'll admit it.

    Ive worked out almost all summer, and tried to play a few times but I dont trust my knees at all, so I dont know what itd prove. Other than you could move faster than a guy who still has swelling every night in both knees, its been 5 almost 6 years since ive played basketball competitively.
    edit: The swelling actually got better for a few weeks before I went and tried to play.
    Anyways, on video which I know doesnt tell the whole story he looked a heck of a lot quicker than everyone else out there.
