Am I the only one that finds 3 pointers 10 times easier than lay ups or shooting from close

I got a fire 3 pointer in me, even from the half way court I make a 3 pointer but my lay up is absolutely terrible. I find it so awkward to get the right power & right direction to bounce it on the back board into the net because I feel like you gotta be pitch perfect & I almost resist everytime I shoot it

With 3’s, I’m just like fuck it this would be so cool and I bet I make this shit, and I somehow do with the worst shooting form of all time

I’m currently improving cause I did start playing basketball like a month ago but i struggle with this a lot

I have a big crush on a girl & she pops up in my dreams 4 times a week but I can’t even talk to her until August as it’s summer break

I (17M) see this girl (17F) around all the time & she’s stunning. I’ve only spoke to her like 3 times but I’ve seen her about 20. People have come up to me & said before they’ve seen her staring at me smiling & to be fair everytime I do see her she does always smile at me, but I think that is just her being nice. I want to not just shoot my shot but to ACTUALLY get a chance to get to know her so damn bad but it’s impossible as I don’t know her socials on anything & everytime I see her my boss is either talking to me or I’m doing something majorly important, otherwise I would just approach her

I have no mutuals with her. I’ve tried but I just can’t find anything. I don’t really know what to do as I do like this woman a lot but I can’t think of any way I can even catch a good time to speak

What can I do except wait until August? Which I probably can’t even catch a chance to talk to her again? & I don’t even want to wait til August as i wouldn’t wanna risk her finding a boyfriend til then

On a positive note, I’m really excited to see if Payton Pritchard steps up next season

There’s not a player I enjoy watching more than Pritchard having a good game. He absolutely cooked against the Lakers in late February. If he can be consistent, which I won’t lie is a gamble, He could be a player that really makes the difference & saves us from a terrible season

Happy cause I won my first match & hit 2 clutch 3’s to win it too, but I keep unintentionally fouling

I’m from europe & im getting into actually playing basketball instead of just watching the Boston Celtics, & I got thrown into a match where to be honest I thought I was gonna be ass but I actually hit some nice 3’s and won us a game & played good defence the other one & made some insane blocks even with everyone taller than me

I got one problem though, fouling. I got quite a lot of fouls called on me & yeah I did I won’t lie, but if you have the ball, and I have to put my arm across you to reach the ball and get it out of your hands,
How are you not just going to run into my arm. & how else can I make that tackle

It’s not even a thing where I’m intentionally an asshole fouling, But how on earth are we not gonna make contact if I’m right infront of you, or by your side, trying to get a ball that you have.
If you bounce the ball on the floor sprinting forward & I get that ball, how are you not going to go flying into me

This is me just asking for advice because sometimes I’m purposefully an asshole when there’s shit talking but sometimes I’m just tryna play ball & I still play like an asshole

people said if arsenal won the league the fans will be unbearable, but the rival fans were actually the unbearable ones

I’ve seen Manchester United fans attempt clown arsenal for losing on penalties in a champions league final, When they lost to penalties to Grimsby town, & then United & Chelsea fans pulled up to the Arsenal parade wearing arsenal kits (I have photographic proof). Ryanair’s official twitter account sending hate to Madueke publicly online for attention & City fans still attempting to call us bottlers, after we won the league and they drew to Everton and Bournemouth when they had the upper hand on us.

Unless you’re PSG, you haven’t had a better season than Arsenal. So why is there so much people trying their hardest to laugh at us, when we’ve been better than them.

Imagine if we won the conference league, city lost the final against inter Milan and we post our trophy right after calling ourselves European champions for beating Rayo Vallecano. I’d be embarrased and people hop on the Arsenal hate train when they actually don’t even hate Arsenal

Guys that don’t sweat when playing?, how do you actually have fun on this game? Every lobby even creative nowadays is like a World Cup final

Today, we had the whole world hate watch us, and “bottlers” won a premier league trophy and only conceded a penalty to what they call the best team in the world in a champions league final, if not for a dodgy ref we would of won. This club is a threat and we are massive

Can’t forgive my brother and father and it’s tearing my family apart

Last week, I was speaking to my dad about something nice and he was fuming with me for no reason, my mum noticed and he stopped and then carried on being angry when she left.

My dad then tried to egg me on, bully me and try to be little me and it got to the point where I couldn’t shut up anymore, and I went up and asked him “why do I see a different man from when moms here and when she’s not here, because I’m the same man everywhere I go & everyone I’m around”

after that he tried to square up to me face to face saying go on do something & then my brother, who is notorious for acting like I don’t exist and has betrayed me & never defended me came out of the room to side my father instantly. I said I’m not fighting my dad as that’s not my morals after he squared up to me wanting to fight, so I walk out the house

he chases me, grips me up the wall and tries to fight me. My brother trying to first diffuse the situation, called me insane for “trying to fight my dad” when he started it, and then when I tried to get my wrists out of my fathers hands, my brother started punching me. 2v1 in a corner all for nothing and when she came home, they all played victim

She took me outside to talk about it and I told her everything what happened. My dad bullying me trying to be little me and I stood up for myself. She got texts from them saying she’s taking sides etc and that I’m crazy whilst she’s trying to bring us back together. She then starts crying in an argument with me my dad her and my brother and my brother laughs, I told him why are you laughing mums in tears, he said “cause it’s funny”

and that was my final straw. I never want to see them two in my life again. My dad doing that, my brother saying that and my dad allowing him to say that, whilst I get dragged down the stairs because he’s in a bad mood

that is not family at all in fact it’s disgusting and abusive, I want them out of my life because even if I forgive, they’re gonna do it again and I can’t have that
