    My day typically starts with a complete balanced meal of Coach Anderson’s imagination of 1 egg white and 3 grapes. I couldn’t eat my apple though because I had to throw it at Chris to defend my dad when he called me a piece of shit. I let everyone know what I eat, but not as bad as Will Hanken snapping pics of the shit to everyone that has a pulse. I get dressed and ready for school. I put on my muscle shirt first so I can show off these biceps that I’ve worked so hard for. I speed off to school

    because of how easy it is to score. Imagining watching a soccer such as Spain in the FIFA World CUP and they get scored on easily which isn’t something that happens frequently because of their strong defense. Spain has been known for conquering all their opponents for their such organized and tactical defense. I still believe the best defender is Sergio Ramos because he fits the requirements of his good pressure, vision, and tackling/ attacking that’s expected. He is very aggressive and he’s a skilled

    Solid three-point shooting: The Nets have attempted quite a few threes in the first three regular season games. In fact, they’ve attempted 112 threes, making 36 of them (32.1%). They’ll need to shoot better from three-point range to keep defenses honest. If defenses respect the team’s three-point range, it will open up lanes to drive and get the easy two. Improved three-point shooting by the team will help improve the already high-scoring offense. Pick-and-Roll:

    seen, the defense usually didn’t let him get easy buckets inside the paint. Or at least try not too. The offense that coach Tomjanovich used during the Houston Rockets back-to-back championships relied heavily on Hakeem’s post skills and the ability of their outside shooters to knock down wide open looks. This kind of offense is known as a 4-Out, 1-In Motion Offense and it is probably one of the easiest offenses that a team can use. The concept of the offense is to get the ball and defense moving and
