Well I would guess that if you had a stroke they would not want you out there playing basketball with kids that are 15-20 years younger than you i don't know anything about a mild stroke. maybe you can have a full recovery. i'm a lot older than moye and if i had an opportunity, i would run with those boys in a second. i may not score but i bet i could draw a foul or get an assist, dammit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was tough to stay awake even as a big fan when alcohol and boredom take hold. well, by your own testimony, you came to party and get drunk, not to observe the team. what i propose isn't to entertain drunken revelers, it is to entertain basketball fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you still coaching. Are you in Indiana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren't drunken revelers, it was so quiet there. I understand your proposal, but in this day and age it won't work for the majority of basketball fans, only the minority of hard core fans. I'd love to attend an open practice, but not for Hoosier Hysteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a coaches clinic, its to get the fan base excited. When the crowd is full of 12 year olds, you really don't want to be running 3 man weave or 3 on 2/2 on 1 drills for an hour. HH is a massive recruiting tool now......and that's what all schools use it for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not meant to be a practice where the team uses to get better but just for the fans entertainment. It was still over a month until the first regular season game so I don't think it was a big deal to take an hour and half out of the practice schedule to have some fun. If people did not enjoy HH there would not be 8500 to 9000 people there every year. I don't like the dunk contest at all and never really have except for when the NBA first started it with Jordan and Dominque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
