Scout has had a rough season in basketball. Things just haven’t quite come together for him. So when the new neighbor kid was bouncing his ball down the street, I invited him over for some one on one with Scout. The neighbor is 11, and Scout is 8, so I was pretty sure it would be a waste of the neighbor’s time. But then the game started, and WHOA!!!
Scout was AMAZING!
He was aggressive, fast, made every shot he threw up…it was unlike anything I have ever seen from him!
At first the neighbor was giving him chances, but by the end, he wasn’t.
The neighbor ended up winning, but not by much.
If only this game could transfer to the team game!
PLEASE!!!
Afterwards, we were talking about it. He said that one-on-one is easier for him. And then he started bragging about how he “killed” the new guy. I told him to pipe down, until I see that on one of his Saturday games! And then I told him it was time to fix that awful new smile of his, where he looks like Popeye!
