I still hoop but I had to alter my game, I’m just not as explosive as I used to bewhen it comes to blowing by guys and beating them off the dribble. In my mind I feel like I can do the same quick moves but my body like PK just chill
I’m more like a Paul Pierce in his prime now. Still can beat guys off the dribble but it’s just all footwork and skill now. I grew up playing PG/SG so luckily I still got handles that won’t go away and my shot has improved vastly the past decade since HS so I can still do pull up J’s and hit open 3s. Also bang in the post much more (even tho I’m 6’1) I used to be one of those smaller guards bullying in the post anyway and now I got a bit of weight on me I can throw it around and beat guys inside off posting up using footwork. Realized I gotta work on a nice floater to get in the lane better and probably drop 5-10 pounds to get some more speed/explosiveness back.
Also defence. I been locking some of these young nikkas up at these courts my pride be getting in the way and I gotta show some of these youngins up. Defence all about footwork and lateral quickness and when I hooped as a youngin I was more offensive and saved a lot of my energy for that hit as I got older I really take pride in rebounding and defence. Depending on the team I’m on in pickup, sometimes I’ll do the Draymond role and run point forward bringing the ball up and playmaking and then rebounding and guarding the other team first or second option. Since I’m
Gonna go hoop this afternoon good looks on the thread OP

I'm alright, I can play a little. Don't seem to have any trouble playing with more experienced players. I'm 6ft, I play 1 or 2, I play like Tony Allen.excuse my skepticism but if you started that late how good are you
unless you're mad tall I can imagine getting such a late start can be a hindrance against more experienced players. what position do you play normally?
I thought I was until I played again. I’m nowhere near as fast as I was, my knees and joints were likely due to increased weight (I can easily see how athletes injure themselves now) and my stamina wasn’t what it was. Funny thing is I went from being way faster than everyone on the court to being only a step faster but tiring out easier of course I be playing young nikkas saying I would dust them something serious if we were the same age since I’m 30 and still the running with them. In hindsight though I should have played football. I was Ben Simmons. Faster than everyone, so I always drove to the hole but my jumper was broke and streaky. That speed should have just went to football.

i played forward in high school, but i was only 5'11 maybe 6'0 generously, I grew after high school. I'm more athletic now tho thanks to college and an actual workout regimen my jumper is so-so but i can jump out the gym so I'm a gym monster that can say i could've made but... 
for real tho, I'm no hooper for real, i go mainly to have fun. Best games ever is playing with 30-40 yr white dudes who got the rim grazer or layup package and i warm up with dunks but they think I'm an all star until I put the ball on the floor and truck stick my way to the basket.
them nikkas be like that's a charge and i say call it, then when they call it i just
and say ain't no refs nikka get up.
