:deadrose::dead: Pure comedy.

Also part 2 of that interview I posted earlier is up. Sam Mitchell Q&A, part two: on KG, Bazzy, and why KAT is the T-wolves best shooter

Any of the flabby and sick crowd can relate to the story he tells about playing pickup against the younger dudes. Did that shyt like a month ago running 3-on-3. Nonstop cuts with passes right in the pocket while playing their strong hand and giving space to shoot long Js. 11-2, 11-0, 11-3.

Sam Mitchell said:
OK, last year, me, Chase Budinger, and Mike [then-shooting coach Mike Penberthy] — played A.P. [Adreian Payne], Glen Robinson III and Lorenzo Brown. We played them two games of 3-on-3 in half court. We played to 12. We beat them 12 to 4 and 12 to 7. We had one NBA player on our team — Chase. We had fat Mike and my old crippled ass. And we beat the dog crap out of them and we were laughing. Let me tell you all we did — pass and screen. Pass and cut. Read the screen. Slip for back door. Slip for layups. Step-back screens. If they screwed up, I’d pop for a 15-footer. And then Chase would just make plays.

The point was, we did it to show them something. All they are thinking is, “I’m quicker, I’m bigger, I’m more athletic, I can jump higher.” But guess what we did on defense? We pushed up and then stepped back and made them shoot. If they would have posted us up, they would have beaten us so bad it would have been abuse. But because we were letting them shoot, guess what they kept doing?

MP: Jacking shots.

SM: Thank you. And we are sitting there laughing, thinking, “All they have got to do is drive.” Hell, I can’t move. I have no cartilage in my right knee and a bad hip. If they just take one dribble then they are past me and Mike. Now Chase was different. But they could just abuse me and Mike. But Mike and I would run up hard on them, playing defense, force them out and drop back. And they shoot. And they clank clank.

They couldn’t figure out how we were beating them. Finally after we played twice, I said, “All you had to do is post us up and drive. We can’t stop you from driving. We just used our minds to beat you.”

Now think about this: Go play San Antonio with their minds and their athleticism. How you going to beat them right now?

I'm a DJ so I work nights mostly and weekends. I do some graphic design too which I can just make money sitting at home.

Probably going to transition out of this life soon tho...Thinking about going back for my masters & doing something else.

But yeah this was easy money since I'm home. I bet on the Nuggets +10 last night as well as the Celtics first half and full game.
