Okay, so my posts seem to be spreading out between when I post, but whatever I figure once or twice a week is plenty. No need telling yall everything about every day.
Today was the NBA Draft, and Kyrie Irving went number 1 to the Cavs. I don't like the Cavs, but honestly, the more I watch from Kyrie, the more I like the guy. Last year I was kind of mad because Kyrie was taking all the spotlight from Seth Curry before the season, and then he ended being ridiculously good, even if it was just for a few games. So I watched his highlights and his games in the tournament and I like how he plays, kind of like Chris Paul, which happens to be one of my favorite players, and one of his. So I liked his game, and the last few days I have watched some interviews, and he started talking about his foot injury, and said something to the effect that God puts struggles like that in our lives to grow through and get stronger. Then in another interview he was like yeah I like music a lot, I play baritone, and the last few years I have started singing. This paragraph might seem kind of weird to you, but basically I am saying kyrie is my boy.
In other draft day news, Warriors picked up Klay Thompson like I wanted, so I am thinking the Monta trade is coming soon. Blazers also picked up Nolan Smith, another of my Duke faves. And blazers picked up Jon Diebler, one of my favorite shooters. However they got rid of Rudy and Andre, both of whom I will miss.
Okay, we will get to me. My inside game has picked up quickly, as has my passing. Well, they aren't where I want, but they are where I left off at least. I played some 3 on 3 with some Liberty kids, and it was far too easy. A bunch of people were gone, Jake was hurt. I only want to play if it is good competition, otherwise I am not getting much better. I could take it if it was 5 on 5 at Liberty so I at least had to try some, but 3 on 3, or 3 on 4, or 3 on 4.5(hurt Jake standing there) playing halfcourt just isn't much fun. It gets boring.
I finally got to doing some music stuff. I wrote one song, which is pretty cool in my opinion, and I came up with a sweet riff/solo that I will probably make into a song soon enough. Whenever I go into play, I start off just doing guitar stuff, maybe try out a few different things for making a solo, and then I end up playing a song or something, so I end up singing and playing, and then at the end I get to a song I can't play, so I just sing a few songs. This happens quite often. For instance, I started listening to Seattle by The Classic Crime, and started out just playing along a bit, figuring it out, and I ended up just singing through the song. Whatever, it is all fun.
I kind of want to hang out with some more people. Like I hang out with Victor, Bryan, and Travis a lot, which is tight, but I could use a few more people thrown in there every once in a while, just to keep in touch so I don't just watch a movie every night.
If you can't tell, I have a really hard life right now, I mean, between working out and playing music, it's a wonder I have time to enjoy anything in life... Well that's all for today
