Something to tide you over until the draft

This being Sunday, we can all use a little diversion to amuse and relax us in the dog days leading up to the NBA draft on Thursday, when Kevin Pritchard will shock and awe the basketball world again. Enjoy!

What do a woman, an infant, and a 49-year-old pharmacist have in common with the NBA? They were all draft picks!

LOL

3 out of 20, but I was hitting the rim more consistently before I quit. Had one of those frustrating Martell classics – in, rattles around, bounces out…

I just found out . . .

. . . you can rebound – grab the ball after a missed shot before it’s done moving.
And then you can shoot from wherever you grab it.

Blazers have a five-on-three...and they pull it back and wait for help.

Congrats!

I thought about adding that you can alley-oop and dunk endlessly, despite the big NO Dunks! banner, but I figured some smart guy would figure it out. The only problem, if you’re looking to up your shooting percentage, is that you get charged an attempt each time you grab the ball.

Now see if you can put the ball into the net in such a way that it drops through and hits the floor. It is possible.
