Played a pick up game for the first time in 4 years

[HUTCH]

Just went for a little shoot around with Momma Hutch, my brother in law and a friend...Get to the court and of course there is group of high school basketball players playing some half court game...I had no plans of playing an all out full court run...But of course they ask if we wanna get a game going...after going up and down court about 3 times I am wondering how I am gonna get through this one game...I have also picked up the nickname "baby buff dude" and "lil mexican buff dude" (though im not even mexican at all, )..." whos got baby buff dude???" LOL...so here I am a 28 year old man running up and down the court with 16 and 17 year old kids...Didnt do too bad though besides the cardio part...I can still hang on the rim no problem, and the quickness is still there...But oh my oh my I woke up this morning and my knees are friggin killing me... Motrin is my best friend today...So Ive decided I wont be pursuing my NBA career till after my contest prep...

I play every now and then. When I was in college I played a pick up game, I was about 235 at the time. Sprained my ankle bringing the ball up court, crossed over and DOH! Then I decide to try and play on it, go up for a rebound, come down and roll it again. That was it for me for a looong time. I'm 195-200lbs now though, much more nimble. Damn that hurt.

Glad it went better for you than it did for me

I made it through ok but I had that fear in the back of my head the whole time...at leat if I tore something though i could have picked up a pizza on my way to the ER...

I love shooting around and even a pickup game when I have and can find the time.

Haha Nice! I stay far away from that territory. You know its a bad situation when there is a possibility of getting embarrassed by highschool kids. Where did they come up with the "Baby" part of your nickname? lol
