Stuey hitting 'em like LeBron

Tip off at the start of the game

Stuey was on fire at last night's 'Lil Dribblers basketball game.  In his first game Monday night he did not score a point, but last night he sank so many shots I lost count.  My best guess is that he scored 18 points, or all but 3 of his team's (A Balanced Approach or ABA) baskets.  And he was shooting from ridiculous angles and distances.  If there had been a 3 point line he would have scored 26 points!  Until late in the game he seemingly could not miss - he drained everything.  I'm not so sure hitting so well is good for him in the long run.  He may never drain them again like he did last night.

The other team was very good.  To their credit they passed and defended much better than Stuey's team.  But Stuey and his hot hand had his team up by 6 well into the second half.  And then he got tired and the other team upped their defense.  The other team had taller players and limited ABA's passing, and they also had one VERY good player (#6 in photo below) who was draining 3 pointers almost as well as Stuey.  They came back and won by 4.  It was a great game. 

As regards my situation, I've noticed that the ipod mix in the car has been throwing up 'I can see clearly now' by Jimmy Cliff quite frequently.  It's a good sign.  Patrick

  1. All those kids are just so in the game - even the boy with his eyes closed. Stuey has really raised his personal best bar very high.

  2. I made 8 three pointers that's already 24 points and then I hit one 2 pointer.
