Double Trouble Hoop it Up!
Here are my babies with their post-game coaches talk after their very first official basketball team basketball game. They had so much fun! Shoot, I had so much fun! It brings back the memories of Tre playing at that age. Having 2 little stars out there at once is twice as fun. These two may surpass their big brother's legacy. Of course they have the added advantage of having a big brother that has been working with them since they could walk. I'm convinced they have the whole twin telepathy going on out there. They each just know where the other one is and played well with each other and as a part of a team overall.Koby was the first to score for his team with an effortless layup. Jaydon was the last one of the day to put points on the board. Both of them are monsters on defense. They played hard. Both were drenched after the game. Poor JJ was red for at least an hour after the game.
I'll admit, I had to put effort into toning down my enthusiasm on the sidelines. I can't be the same competitive Mom as I am at Tre's high school games. I had to take myself back a few years to remember the etiquette of the play for fun, non-competitive ball games for the little guys. Of course, I cheered for my little guys, reminding them: "Arms up!, Defense guys! Box out! Get the rebound!" However, as expected, I clapped politely when the other team scored and made the appropriate complimentary comments when someone on the other team did something extraordinary. I was good and did not cheer when one of my kids knocked another kid on their butts. In a few years, I'll get my chance to do that.
For now, it is just a blast watching them have a blast. They really did run hard. Evidence is shown below. They each took a 2-hour nap this afternoon. They were wiped out!
