    Awww man, best news in a looooooong time.

    For those of you who didnt know I got shot awhile back...its been a grueling process but ive been working long and hard to get back man....and this may not seem like a big deal to most but it means the world right about now...

    I love it!
    hopefully I still have my first step....lol

      I read about your incident and it was terrible to hear what happened to you, but its great to see that your rehab is workin out. Not that I know what its like to get shot but I have had intense rehab and its grueling...Its good to hear that things are lookin up.

        Congrats man... I remember when I came back from two surgeries and back on the court... my first shot was a air ball. lol I think it was a long two. After that I was like alright, lets try a lay up. I had surgery on my arm so thats why it was all weird.

                I know the feeling, not being able to play soccer for 6 months after my surgery was awful, but now I'm back and it's great.

                Glad to hear everything is going fine with your recovery.

                          And I can't speak for everyone but I consider it a big deal because it means you are getting better. Can't wait to read posts here this summer about how you are owning the basketball courts.
                          I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                              Only slighter better than the 5/15 performances you're used to.
                              "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace
