Basketball, my first game ever in a YMCA
Dis afternoon, fo' de fust time ever, Ah' played in some hoopball game in some YMCA, de game wuz at da damn Waldam Y. Fo' de fust time, Ah' had succeeded in convincin' de Y-staffa' controllin' de situashun t'let me use da damn Group Exercise Room, but Ah' decided dat runnin' around playin' hoopball would dig me in shape betta' dan solitary drill. Ah' decided some mix uh solitary drill and runnin' around playin' wid oders gots'ta be optimal.
From 114 PM t'124 PM Ah' played in some ten-minute full court hoopball game, five on five. Ah' intercepted some pass, gots some defensive rebound, grabbed some loose ball, and passed t'a team-mate who shot and sco'ed, which maybe wuz an assist. Man! Ah' made some passes widout bein' intercepted. Several times, fo' 'esample when de oda' team dun did de fast-break, Ah' wuz put into situashuns where Ah' had t'defend against some playa' oda' dan de playa' I wuz designated t'guard; every time Ah' wuz able t'prevent da damn opponent fum sco'in'.
Afta' de game some sho't black-haired honky dude and some gray-haired chest, said t'me, 'You're getting up there'. He meant dat he thought Ah' wuz jumpin' high. Lop some boogie. Actually right now Ah' duzn't gots a strong vertical jump fum da standin' start. Man! But it be possible dat Ah' have developed a strong vertical jump fum a runnin' start, cuz' of de kind'a soccer practice Ah' do. 'S coo', bro. De pass intercepshun Ah' made durin' de hoopball game, featured me jumpin' high t'intercept da damn pass afta' sprintin' about twelve yards.
Den Ah' talked t'de dudes, while watchin' a game, about whut posishun some low scrub-type should play on offense. A brother dude said, dat everyone wantsa play guard, and da damn fo'wards is betta' dan de centers; so's I resolved t'play center, as some way uh startin' out humbly.
Next Ah' had t'shoot hoops t'compete fo' some spot on de next team t'play. Ah' made a dree-pointer, and also made a shot fum free-drow distance; hence, Ah' gots'ta play and at leasst one honky dude had t'sit out cuz' I whup' him in de shoot-out. Man!
In de second game Ah' played center on offense. Ah' co'rectly posishuned mah'self fo' about three offensive rebounds, but some sucka behind me wuz able t'knock de ball away every time. Dis game wuz tirin' a'cuz, playin' center, Ah' had some longa' way t'run compared t'when Ah' wuz playin' guard. Ah' reached da damn limits uh my current endurance at da damn end uh dis game, but dis wuz afta' neva' slackin' on defense fo' 20 minutes, guardin' opponents oda' dan de joker I wuz designated t'guard when necessary. And today wuz mah' fust day uh hoopball games.
Afta' I had played dese games Ah' heard dis honky chick who played hoopball wid de dudes today, say, 'he played good!'. Ah' knowed she wuz rappin' about me. Ah' wuz dinkin', today wuz de fust day Ah' showed interest in hoopball, and today wuz de fust day a chick played wid de Waldam hoopball dudes.
Afta' de game, Ah' felt dat in YMCA hoopball, dere be a ball-hog problem, similar t'de YMCA soccer ball-hog problem. Dough Ah' dun did some baaaad job uh runnin' around gettin' open fo' passes. still nobody passed t'me.
De hoopball resembled da damn YMCA soccer in de sense dat Ah' wuz able t'accomplish alot on defense. Overall, Ah' hustled on defense, dun did a few 20 yard defensive sprints, always dun did mah' job on defense. De joker I wuz guardin' only sco'ed once durin' de two 10-minute games, by shootin' a long-distance shot. Man!
De fact be dat in both hoopball and soccer, Ah' duzn't know de dudes Ah' am playin' wid, Ah' duzn't get de ball passed t'me, and derefo'e, fo' me playin' defense kin produce mo'e acshun compared t'playin' offense.
