During warmups yesterday Mo, standing 30' out, would throw the ball 20ish feet in the air toward the basket and with perfect timing would wait until it bounced to run, jump and grab that ball at it's peak and slam it down with authority.
This might sound easy to a novice, but for the throw to bounce where it does, and for Mo to time his steps and jump to grab the ball at it's apex, and then to keep your balance and smash the ball thru the rim, all in 1 continuous motion, is anything but easy.
I also have the luxury of perspective and can honestly say that 3 years ago, after a game with Kett Jr High, I left the gym telling friends he's not athletic enough for UD.
Prove me wrong, Mo!!!!
