JASON JORDAN’S WHAT I’M THINKING TODAY …
I often write about how important it is for players to perfect the skill that they’re most known for before they try and display the skill no one knows they have.
I think we can all learn this lesson from Miley Cyrus’ performance at the MTV Video Music Awards.
Can you say “Epic fail?”
I mean, c’mon, Hannah Montana spitting hot 16’s?
It’s really similar to the 6-foot-10 center who’s dead-set on showing off his guard skills against, well, guards or the pocket passer who wants to show that he can pick up 40-yard runs whenever he feels like it.
Please know that, often times, you look as silly as ole Miley did twerking and sticking her tongue out randomly.
As you were…
WHAT I CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF RIGHT NOW …
“Had a great visit in the Ville (Louisville)!” – Arsenal Tech (Indianapolis) forward Trey Lyles
