Now...he's saying I use the post spin too much? Why am I using it in the first place? Because it's working and he can't defend it. Richmo and chia have no problems negating me when I use the post spin. Either anticipate it, or play the entry pass to stop it...why the hell would your first response to it be "Stop doing the post spin"? With your sorry *** defenders? Hell naw I'm not stopping.

Get out of here. Just because I have better stick skills then you (In terms of the post game) you wanna whine and try to persuade me to do something else? Why?Force me to adjust. That's what good players do.

@Richmo and Chia

Is what I'm saying not right? Is that not what your supposed to do on defense? Take away the post game if it's working for your opponent? Am I cheese? Because that's exactly what this dude called me. A cheesehead. Dude has me fuming right now man
I feel ya Duke... its called basketball, if your opponent only has one option or one strategy, then it should be easy(ier) to stop or slow down your opponent, I just don't get some guys sometimes.

@Richmo, he consistently gives me beatdowns and I mean serious beatdowns. Sure I get mad but that is because I am competitive (too much so). I seemingly never match up well against Richmo so far and its mainly due to him just being better than me.

@Duke, we have had nothing but good battles (minus the first game we played iirc, i think that one was a blowout again iirc) for example the last time we played, I played tight on your shooters (due to our game before, where you light me up with Thornton from deep) to keep that from happening again, so you started driving on me and that worked well for you.

Its called strategy, game-planning, knowing your opponent... but its still basketball no matter how you play it.
