Wassup basketball world, its Kyle Anderson here to fill you in on how my week went. Let me get started. Monday started off Spring AAU for me. That evening I had practice with the Playaz 15u. Our team looks really good this year in both the guard spot and in the post. Guards including Myles Mack, Myles Davis, Charles Oliver, and Jhamir White. Seems like A guard oriented team, but not so fast, in the post we have Jordan Allen (6'6, Bayshore L.I), Desmond Hubert (6'9, New Egypt), Tyler Calvin (6'5,Snyder), Jarrod Davis (6'4, Lakewood) and Demetrius Smith (6'0 240lbs and the little brother of NBA star J.R. Smith) sounds like A pretty good front court. Look for us to be playing on Sundays for every tournament were in. That's kind of a motto with the Playaz, "we play on Sundays" meaning we will be there for the Chips, LOL. After practice I had to rush over to Fairlawn the next town over from Paterson and play a game with my brothers in the mens league. Unfornately, the game was cancelled. So my brother challenged me to a 1 on 1. I am the king of the house so I played him, AND LOST! So I no longer have that title. Then I played 2 on 2 with my brother, but against my cousin Ahmad, and called it a night.
Tuesday I went up to the park which is up the block and worked on my game. After I got a short-hour workout, I played some half court games, which was TOO EASY! LOL. Wednesday was another Playaz practice at Kennedy High School. We practiced with our other 15u team that we are having. At the end of practice we scrimmaged. Thursday was A day of preparation. I went running, trying to get in shape and get my legs stronger for next year. The next day was A cool day in school and after school I went and watched my school talent show. Pretty boring, but better than being in the house. Got home late and ended the night watching Love and Basketball.
Finally the weekend, Saturday was such A long day. Saturday morning I had another Playaz practice at 10 o'clock in the morning. Again we practiced with the other 15U team and scrimmaged them. Then when my team left I stayed and practice with the 16U team to work on my game. That team is loaded. Fuquan Edwin, Jayon James, Shaq Thomas(who is pretty good), Cameron Ayers (from Philly) and a couple of Union County players, Ashawn and Ishia Epps. Oh yea, Big T.J from P.C., it's pretty scary being under the boards with him. I did more than hold my own. My size gives me advantage even at that age level. That practice ended at 1:45 and I was exhausted. A workout from 10 o'clock to 1:45 calls for A nap. And that's what I did when I got home. That night I went to my brother's girlfriend's son's birthday party and cooled out there. After that I called it A night.
Today (Sunday) I went to the 'Garden' to watch Lance Stephenson play against Boys and Girls for the PSAL Championship. The game wasn't even close. I think Lance is the best player in high school basketball, EVEN AS A JUNIOR! My dad doesn't agree. After that game I went home and went out to the park, I hate going days without shooting A basketball. I just got back from the park and that wraps up my week. Next week, first AAU tourney (Team Kobe tourney in Philly). Really excited for that. Next week i'll tell you guys if we won or not. There will be some pretty tough teams but like I said earlier, we play on Sundays! Peace Out!
