Shooting hoops in the park - wearing Jordans

Photobucket

It was becoming a hot morning as I went to the court. However, there was a bit of a breeze that kicked in too. Here I was sporting my Jordan gear. Last time I had on Jordans was when I played on the court with my friend & co-worker, Josh. But that was with a different pair of Jordan shoes and the white Jordan jersey. Today I had on the red Jordan jersey and Alpha 1 retro shoes. My performance was good in the very beginning. I was able to shoot left, middle, and right within the 2-point area. However, during the middle of it all, I decided to go on the 3-point arc once again and master what I learned days ago. Turns out, my shots there were average. The arc technique was gone and I struggled a little bit more. There were lucky shots that I made, but it seems that the arc technique was missing in most of my attempts. And I realized that was the missing ingredient to my performance. There's always next time. On the time remaining, I sat down and looked at the kids doing their skateboard thing. It's fun watching them do their tricks.
