game shape is game shape. 

NOBODY can play 48 mins without being gassed. NOBODY so I know I can't either. BUT I'm not going to be tired until the 4th quarter especially with TV timeouts, dead balls, regular time outs, fouls, etc. 

I run sprints, suicides, do defense drills, and play.  Don't tell me what type of shape I'm in.  I'm in better shape than Baron Davis

OH REALLY NOW?

dude is probably 50lbs heavier than you and can out dunk, out run you and what not.

cool you can dunk. your dunks in practice setting arent even clean to begin with.  ive seen dudes shorter than you dunk easier and better and thing is they dont even play basketball. they just get on the court and dunk because they cant do jack on the court.

just because you can dunk your a superior athlete? SMH

You went from saying you putting up a %@+#$%++ of shots to saying you banking kick outs you get fed. Now your in game shape to play 3 full quarters of NBA basketball with some of the best athletes, at a pace you have never in your life played yet you can out last some of these dudes? Cause a good portion of players in the L are not playing 3 quarters straight, let alone trying to score everytime they get the ball. This why everyone thinks your trolling, but the sad thing is you actuall believe your bull #*!%. I never came across a dude so gassed on himself with nothing to show for it

I'm not special there are alot of guys who are in shape to play these kind of minutes.  thats what you don't understand.  And where did I say I was going to "out last" anybody.

Maybe you are assuming I'm going to try to shoot tripled teamed every possesion like the way you guys use Lebron on 2k12.  Naw, I'm going to play smart basketball but be aggressive to score since that's the point of the "scenario".  I'm gonna hit a 3, I'm gonna go to the FT line.  Thats 5 in the books right there.  The other 5 points will come from open jumpers, 1 dribble pull-ups, fast break lay-ups/dunks. 

I never said I was better than a NBA player.
I never said I was going to break down defenders and score at will.
I never said I wasn't going to get tired.
I never said anything like that but that's what most of you guys are assuming.

I'd be pretty damn tired but I'd score 10 points. 
 
Honest question...Forget the NBA, but if you got this much confidence in your game and actually believe you'd score 10 in a pro setting, what's the reason you aren't on a D-League roster at the minimum? Clearly a team could use you, right?
 
look at this play since you wanna talk about athletic ability.

1. I'm in a backpedal
2. once the pass is thrown I quick turn.
3. speed up and catch the guy
4. take off using my "weak" leg. meaning most right handers are left leg dominant.  I jumped off my right leg on this play.
5. timed the block before it hit the glass

I'm not athletic. I'm not coordinated, I'm not fast, I'm not quick, I don't have agility,

Just stop it. There's dudes that played high level football that have asked me if I did and say I should've. I don't need to gas anything but I'm here providing video footage and ya'll just can't accept it.

Because alot of guys could score 10 points in an NBA game if that was the only goal. Thats been my whole point. 

I'm not saying I could average 10 pts in the NBA 
I'm not saying I could score 10 pts along with playing lock down defense, limited turnovers, and shooting a high percentage.

There's plenty of guys that could get 10 points but can't bring enough other things to the table to compete in the NBA. 

I'm just saying I could get 10 points. thats it. don't overthink it.

You really think guys make the D-league off an open tryout?  Man those things are money makers for the team.  Even if you do really really well you better have a great resume to get picked up for a training camp invite. Trust me one of my close friends worked for an D-league team directly with the coaching staff.  

Pretty much I would have to be straight up Derrick Rose meaning being head and shoulders above every player they were even considering just to make it to training camp with my lack of resume.  Not even the guys that make the team are that good to dominate each other like that. 

You clearly don't have a understanding of the D-league and you just continue to throw it out there.

Forget the Dleague, there are leagues in spain for you if you can back up what you spitting.
 
but your an NBA talent how arent you head and shoulders above every other player there?

and money maker? LULZ they charge $500 or less for the try outs for the weekend. so yea sure lots of money for them...

stop with the excuses theres a dude at my gym who plays for the Mad Ants. If your good and want a chance to shine then you would be at the try outs every year trying to make the team. you just waste your time making highlight videos of yourself and hyping yourself up on a sneaker forum. thats not gonna get you a job or get you paid.

As a shooting guard???? Well I'm 5'8", so I'd just comment massive amounts of fouls
and probably score a maximun of 2 points. I'd be labelled as "scrappy" like Luke
Walton & Sasha Vujacic, meaning I'd have the bare minimum skill to stay on/make the
team, and only score cause no ones paying attention to me.

Yea, pretty much.  #endthread

I mean, a guy like Jeremy Lin who probably scored double digits once all last season for the Warriors averages 18 ppg whenever he gets sent down to the D League.  And here Truth is complaining about not standing out enough in tryouts to get an invite to a D league team. 

Something is wrong here.  #cuefunnygif
 
Why Cant I Get Any Rest Coach? I Aint Conditioned To Play 48mins
laugh.gif

If I Was Tho Prolly 2pts No More Than 5 Tho.
 
dudes are funny, it's clear you've never even participated in a pro tryout in your life.

Lets say a team gets $200 from 50 guys...that's not a lot of money? do you really think the D-league teams make money during the year?
laugh.gif
 they need stuff like that. 

Ok now lets say you have 50 guys who don't know each other and are hoping for a shot a getting picked....do you know what type of basketball is being played?

Pretty much you better be a decent big man to stand out.  I mean everybody is gonna make shots but nobody is passing or playing good basketball.  Thats what I mean.

so after 3 hours they say thanks for playing and we will contact you if we want you.  Keep in mind a D-league roster is only 10-12 spots and they already have guys in mind.  Then add on the big name guys would weren't drafted to the NBA.  You gotta be kidding me if you think you just gonna come off the street and wow the coaches into giving you a shot when they are on the phone with agents all day.
 
Real talk... Even if I tried my hardest in my prime I'd probably put up 0 points unless it was a slick cherrypick where I would stunt and slap the backboard with both hands.

I know I'd get alot of those shots off that roll or bounce around the rim then ultimatley miss. You know them halfway down joints that find a way to roll out somehow.
laugh.gif
 
 
BTW guys in the d-league arent that great. theres a few good guys in their but the rest are decent at best and yes i know from experience.

like ive said in other threads ive played against great talent on a daily basis. DI, DII, DIII, euro league, a lot of D-league players. Hell a guy i know won MVP in the german league and you arent even close to his level but he did get invited to play for NBA summer league teams.

brah face it you arent that good, SRS.

if you were good you think me and everyone else would put you down? i know talent when i see it, you are nothing more than a good pick up ball player.

You're just making excuses now. 

People say the same thing about tryouts at JV, varsity, DIII, DII, DI tryouts etc. etc.  Well, duh.  Anyone at any tryouts is going to have their try - hard pants on and go nut.  Talent will stand out regardless.
 
For those that actually think they are talented enough to even sniff the league.. Peep this youtube. Gilbert Arenas shoots 100 3's and makes damn near 80 of them, with 10 being one handed. DeShawn Stevenson loses but hits like 70 out of 100. Yup, bummy +@# Deshawn Stevenson hits like 70% of his threes. Granted this is nothing but a shooting contest, I'd like to see one of you hit 80% from three point line.

My point being... You might think your really good, or you might actually be really good in your small +@# circle... But there will always be someone bigger, faster and better than you. Always.
