    at the Little Rock Athletic Club. He hangs out here from time to time apparently. Came up to him and told him I was a huge Rockets fan and asked if a team picked him up this summer (couldn’t remember). He didn’t hear me properly so he said “did you ask if I’m still on the rockets?” Lol. So I said nah, just seeing if there’s a team eyeing you. He said there wasn’t but he’s trying to get back in the league.

    I later asked him if he preferred playing for Quinn Snyder or Coach D’antoni better. He smiled and said “I like Quinn.” Me, him, and my buddy then played a 5-on-5 pickup game. We won, he passed to me twice, I bricked threes both times. I should be in better shape for a 26 year old

    And that’s my “cool story, bro” moment.

    I had decent handles and a pretty good 3 ball growing up, but let’s just say at this point I could only offer MCW level services if Daryl were to sign me

    Did y'all iso him from range to take him out of the game offensively? Assuming you did. Good move.
