Mamba: I have watched your posts on here and have followed the advice given by these knowledgeable coaches. You seem like a real good kid and have a love for the game. Its most unfortunate that you seem a little injury prone but its not how many times we fall that counts but how many times we get up. When life gives you lemons, you can either walk around with a sour look on your face or you can make lemon aid. Where are you from and what are your plans for the future, what is your age and how are your grades. Coach Mac

He most defiently is a player than if his that Ais , Coach sar .

Coach mac : Thanks alot , appreciate it .
I dont really think i'm injury prone it was on injury i guess and i bounced back well other than that i've never had any injury thats kepy me out for longer than 2 weeks .
You are right i do have a love the game and really believe that hard work will get you anywhere you want . 3 yrs agoif you asked me to shoot a jumpshot or score more than 2 pts in a game i just couldnt do it but then it all changed when a very experinced american coach ( former scout) came to our school and really opened up my eyes . I thought i was working hard back then by playing one game a week , obviously i was wrong . So for the last 3 yrs i have been training from 5.30 am every morning before school and 2-3 hrs after school . My High school coach is now looking to send me over to a prep school either later this year or next yr depending on which is best . I'll be doing that so i can get exposure for a college scholarship . ( hopefully div 1 ) . Right now i have to physical skill to play at a high level( A couple of friends are in the usa in div 1 programs and i can match it with them) but i dont have the game experince to be able to apply that and also the consistent jumper .
i live in Melbourne Australia and i am 17 yrs old going on to 18 in 3 months . I'm in my last year in highschool and my avg grade right now is a b+ but can be better and i struggle to get my studies done most of the times cuz im playing ball or im just to tired to concentrate . Plans for the future are to play college ball and study business managment and after that some way some how end up in the nba .

Mamba: send me your email address, I think I can help you achieve what you want i have several contacts in both Canada and the United States..Coach Mac

Okay coach , Thanks alot . My email address is eliesfeir0@gmail.com

P.s im touring the states in december with my school and will be playing against highschool teams all over

Hey coach sar , forgot to update you but we had a school tournament on Monday . We lost the grandfinal in double overtime . I'm captain of the side and i did really well i avg 20 pts in 6games and only 12 minute 2 halves and my jumper was terrible so i took it to the rack , and just kept beating my player down low . I took the day off today because i couldn't even move like litterally struggled to get out of bed lol . By the way im really sorry about the post before when i was asking bout that kids details that was pretty rude . Just want you to know thats not how i am so im sorry .

You have good day coach and thanks alot

What states will you be playing in?

Apology accepted - sometimes we say things without thinking.... part of the growing up process.... (so do adults by the way LOL)

It sounds like you were playing well........ and good adjustment... taking the ball to the hole when your J isn't dropping. IF you can get to the free throw line you can check your form.... so keep after it. Here is something I had all my players do at the beginning of practice... take a few minutes and so some BEEF check.... just a reminder for FORM.

Have a good day yourself.

We playing in North carolina , South carolina and other places too but i cant find the dam guide lol
Yeah i always make sure to start training with some form shooting . I need to get some more arc on my jumper my coach keeps telling me im shooting lasers lol but thats only from 3s . Still got a long way to go on that shot if i want to play at the nba / div 1 level

You'd be a good baseball player with those line drives you are shooting... maybe you need to get more legs into your shot? Give it a try and let me know... your shot should end up with your elbow around your eye.

Get organized will ya! I hate people who are all disheveled! LOL I was one of those anal guys.... I had too much to do to NOT be super organized....

I like that one coach, real nice . Little things like that are things i'll remember for the rest of my life and pass on to many younger people . Its just nice and easy advice . I guarantee you know that every time i shot thats what i'll keep in the back of my head

nice job

And every time you score you can think of me! LOL And you can pay me back by getting me a Ferrari Enzo when you make it to the Pros. :-)
