I got a chance to attend Hoop Group Jr. Elite camp that took place at Manhattan College. It was my first Hoop Group event. We did a bunch of drills and workouts and then we broke into teams and played against one another. I started the game and the first quarter was a little shaky. I was on a team with two other players and they were freezing me out. My dad had warned me that at these events its more about individual skills and not too much teamwork and that players were trying to make an…

Just came back from a great workout with my dad, god father and god brother Billy Clark. We did chair dribble drills, shooting drills, defensive slides, conditioning drills, worked with the jump soles as well as the SPARQ training equipment. We then played a little two on two with some friends. Me and Billy made a good one-two punch. He has helped me to play at his level and at his speed. He is 3 yrs older than me and the game at his level is much faster. It was a great workout. Went home, ate,… Continue

TU 12u team played in a one day tourney in Freeport, L.I. It was a good experience. We aren't usually great when it comes to back to back games. We had to get better at that real quick. We played our first game and won then played the very next game. Unfortunately we lost but we played a good second half. We ended up playing in the chip but we fell short and took second place. I played pretty well. Still got alot of improving to do. One thing i was proud of was my attitude when things…

Had a Championship game in 5 Boros today. We played against a tough Next Level team. We pulled it out by 7 points. I played a good game. I had 10 points, 4 assists, 4 rebounds and only 2 turnovers. My hard work these last few weeks is starting to pay off. My dad said that it was one of the most effecient and poised games i've played in a long time. Congrats to my teammate Ron for winning MVP. I'm just glad we got the win and our first chip of 2010. I am gonna continue to work hard to become…

Got a chance to play in a 3 on 3 tourney in my dads old stomping grounds- Marcy Projects. I was a little nervous just because i had not been there since i was like 3 and i never played ball there. Got a little shoot around with some of the older kids and that loosened me up. The team i played on had two bonified ball hogs. They didnt know me so i guees they thought i was just going to pass the ball to them all day. I made sure that they took the ball out and i was the first pass they made.…

Once again me and my dad got out early and got a good workout. We went thru some dribble drills as well as shooting and situation drills. My dad had my shot count at around 400. Thats from jumpshots, foul shots and layup drills. Came home and got a bite to eat and crashed for a little while. Great Workout.

Me and my father went to go workout at the park across the street from our house. We worked on my right hand moves and finishing right. After that I worked on my free throws first time went 15 for 20 ,the second time went 14 for 20. I worked on my jumpshots first time i went 18 for 20 , then i went 17 for 20. I can't remember the rest. We did a bunch of other drills as well. It was a great workout and we are going to workout tomorrow morning. I'm BEASTING!!! If you really want to see what…
