I had not been to a middle school basketball game since our kids were in school and our baby turns 30 tomorrow so that gives you a rough idea that it's been 20 years or so. Our grandson invited us to his game so we figured we would go and watch 10 kids running around the basketball court chasing a big round ball.
What we got was a real honest to goodness basketball game. We saw some 10 and 11 year old kids dribbling the ball like Tony Parker. Michael Jordan would have been proud of the 3-point shots that not only were taken but actually made. Layups like a basketball pro like Steve Nash would make and pick and rolls like the Miami Heat have mastered.
If you get a chance to go to a game or two, prepare to be impressed if you haven't gone in a while. I tip my hat to all the coaches who are doing a fantastic job. Thank you for what you do.
