Ant could never.
My 3rd grader did just this move last Saturday and I was so proud. She went to drive left (bc she’s left handed) and the way was shut – so she backed herself back out to the free throw line corner, and attacked right down the middle in an opening that materialized as the kids were moving around the play – and had a perfect little floater that swished in. I don’t think I’ll ever forget that play. It was so cool to see the last 4 years of work with her come together in a 10 second play and she just looked natural at it in the moment. Kyrie is going to teach Cooper so much!
Excellent.
Very nice article/interview. Cooper is a Ray of sunshine.
That’s my Rook.
Shit advice and part of why Cooper has been so passive to start the year, Kyrie is a great player but a shit mentor.
Great players dont need an advantage, they create one themselves regardless of matchups, if Cooper is gonna reach his potential hes gotta learn since day 1 to play like a superstar and not cosplay like a roleplayer.
