How can I beat twenty somethings in hoops?
Okay, I just turned 50 a couple of weeks ago, but I'm still competitive as all get out--maybe too competitive. Anyway, I play basketball once a week and most of the guys are a lot younger than me, and a lot quicker. I think I need to improve my quickness, foot speed, side to side, hand quickness. I actually just began playing against these guys a couple of weeks ago--for the past six months or so I've been playing against guys from work who were older, and who refused to play full court. Now, I'm learning something each game, how to break down the defense a bit etc., but I ain't tall, so I can't just do the garbage bucket routine. If I want to continue playing, I have to contribute and when my shots aren't falling (and they weren't last night), I've got to be able to do something else.
Okay, I'm just rambling, but if you have any ideas, feel free to express them. :ne_nau:
