Basketball Diaries

You wanna know how you can tell that you are no good at playing basketball? When former NBA all-star Mark Aguirre winds up on your lunchtime pickup team — and you still lose. (Scouting report on Aguirre, for those who might face him on the hardwood: he doesn’t get up and down the court like he once did. But his hands are still freakishly huge (Leppert has nothing on him). He’s got a good ball fake and a quick first step. And he has range.)

  1. I assume you are playing at Premier, Tim? Now, if you had Ro Blackman on your team, you would be a sure winner. I am sure his jumper is still sweet.

  5. Tim the Second got hot (who was guarding him? oh yeah… hmmm). And we had a few too many bricks. Even Dan took it hard to the rack.

    We’ll get ‘em next time, tiger — with or without former NBA All-Stars. Good to see you balling again… we went a few months without your presence…

    PS — part of the Aguirre scouting report you missed is he’s still strong like bull. I took a stiff arm from him when he was trying to fight around a screen… ow. Solid man.

  6. Is this a regular feature? Not you sucking on the court, the basketball diaries, is that a regular feature? At least your tattoo didn’t have a turnover.
