Super sucks that I can't play basketball right now because of my ankle injury. I can actually jump and run now, it's just that changing direction is painful like anything. Just when the game was really opening up to me.
I'm seeing things I never saw before, like how to pivot to the post a la Kobe Bryant, or cross over a la Allen Iverson. Still can't jump like Lebron James, but I'm currently on a work-out program designed to make me harder, better, faster, stronger (that's what she said).
Been able to shoot baskets a few nights a week, though. Just recently started shooting jumpers, as opposed to last week, when I could only shoot set shots. The ankle's definitely getting better, but I'd rather not risk it. I'm taking it one day at a time, but I don't think I'm going to be playing full-court, full-contact til July.
Doesn't help that the NBA Finals are over. I'm itching to get my basketball fix.
