Pip has turned a basketball corner. All last year he lacked the muscle strength to reach the basket. Then he started this year shy to even try. He developed into a great defensiveman and awesome passer. He has a mean fake pass and strong bounce pass. Then the 3rd to last game of the season he found himself under the net without heavy coverage. I yelled "SHOOT IT PIP". I have no idea if he heard me, but he did shoot it ... and it went in. The man nearly leapt out of his skin. I screamed like a banshee and probably alienated every other parent in the building. Don't care. So proud of him!
Then next time down ... did it AGAIN. And again! Three baskets in a row on the day. For a bit it was hard to get him to pass. We think he's pretty awesome now being a triple threat ... pass, shoot, and steal!! Go Pip! Balas's never give up!
