PCTI Basketball Training: HOP

I play 3-4 times a week, which has recently gone up for me. I still play a couple times a week with the crew that Ben talked about earlier. Some of you have gotten the pleasure of playing with these guys over the years. A little older than I would like, but there are some good players that come occasionally. Another game has recently started that is put together by some former Lipscomb guys. I don’t play in any leagues because they have not been fun due to the lack of competition and dealing with refs.

I like both of the games because there are some quality players but I am usually one of the more skilled players. I like that because I think it makes me get in an aggressive mind set for PCTI and keeps me in good basketball shape. Even though focusing on offensive is not my role in PCTI, I still am matching up with one of the more skilled players as well so I am having to play both ends of the floor well. The only thing I dislike about the games are there are some lazy players and that annoys me. I love that I have something consistent that I do not have to put together. This is the most I have played leading up to a PCTI in a while, so I am hoping it produces positive results on the floor.

This was much shorter due to not wanting to repeat the things Ben shared.
