Hitting the game winning 3 after missing shot after shot or that being my 1st shot of the game.

I was playing in a pick-up game at school a few months back and I got fouled on a 3 and called "And-1" so they decided not to count the basket because I had called a foul. So my teammate is like "Wow, that's some bull****, but it's cool, you're gonna hit another one." Someone set me a screen and I came off it and hit a 3 right in their face again and then I got a rebound at the other end, brought it down and hit a pull-up 3 to win it.

The other team was not happy at all lol, but man, you're right, that's such a great feeling.

When after a miserable week of 95+ degree weather, it finally cools down to 80 during the day and 70 at night. Now I can actually do things other than sit inside in the AC and watch TV.

Re: Future Dads. Wait till they're born. It trumps everything in this thread.

This could not be anymore true, dude. This takes your life to a whole next place, and brings the absolute best out of you.

The nyte he was born, he was pitching a fit in the room. Would not stop. I picked him up and just walked with him. He lifted his head, looked into my eyes with his, and laid his head on my chest and was quiet from then on.

That moment has re-defined me as a person.

I like it more when it's my first shot i've found, gives me the feeling of well perfection and that I should have gotten the ball more.

Granted I should never get the ball more, I only shoot when i'm wide open. Never drive cause i'm short with mediocre handles, so I just run pick and rolls/pass the ball.

I also enjoy playing tough physical lights out D in pick up games, I so enjoy if I can get another guy on their team pissed at me cause they can't do anything.

I'm pretty tall (6'4) and athletic, so I'm better than most of the people that I play pick up with. I shot pretty well all game, and hit a Kevin Durant-esque pull up 3 on game point and drained it. First time I've done that and it was awesome.

I'm playing in an organized league for the first time since I was 12 this Sunday, so I'm excited to play against some better competition and see how I stack up.

Sorry, that was off-topic.

Other pleasures of life... (a small one, but still cool) a user pick in NCAA with player lock on.

I did this the other day. I got the guy visibly rattled and annoyed because I stayed in his face the whole time.

Any user pick to me is a simple pleasure, 99% of the time even if I get there to make a play I just run in front of the ball and take it to the chest like a bullet.

Re: The Pleasures of Life Thread

Well I got a chance to go hang out with some inner city kids for a week about two weeks ago with some people in my youth group. Each day we would take the kids somewhere and hang out with them. We went bowling one day, roller skating, and went to see the new Ice Age. And man at the end of the week, it was hard to say goodbye to a few of them, but at the same time, it felt really good that I got a chance to hang out with them for the week. It's hard to explain but it was more than a pleasure getting to spend the week with those kids.
