Oh yeah girl. My fave sport. Grew up as a Memphis st ballboy and went to Dana kirk basketball camp for 3 years. Was. 5'10 pg at 14 and never grew another inch.
I knew I liked u for a reason. ;-)
When I found out I had to have knee surgery in high school I cried. Not because of the surgery but because the doctor said my growth plate had closed and 5'9" would be it for me
Yep. I tore my acl at 15. Came back but was never the same. Back then they slice down the front of the leg and up the side. My knee looks like it stepped into a knife fight. I grew up playing with elliot Perry, Ronnie schmidt, and orien Watson at a park named Balmoral right by my house. 9 foot full concrete court. We seldom lost. I think Ronnie is still ranked in hs scoring in tn for '88 or '89. He avgd 40 and the 3 pointer just came out in my Sr year. I didn't get benched for launching anymore.
I hit a culvert in an 85 mustang Gt running over 100 mph when I was 17, almost tore my left leg off. Prior to that little debacle, I was an all conference TE 2 years in a row. I never quite recovered from it. A promising college career wiped out from being a stupid ****ing kid.
Those old 5.0's were nasty. I lost control of the back on many occasions but usually got it back.
Kat, how did it go with your youth basketball team that you're coaching?
