NBA Season Is Back

    My favorite time of the year is back, the NBA season. The NBA season officially began two weeks ago and I have been watching it non-stop. Being a college basketball player, I love being able to watch the game and learn from the best to do it. I am a huge Cleveland Cavaliers fan, but I am also a die-hard LeBron James fan, so I also root for the Los Angeles Lakers. As of today, the Cavaliers have the best record in the league and the Lakers have the worst record in the league. 

    A lot of people don't enjoy watching the NBA because of how long the season is, or the lack of effort, but I thoroughly enjoy it, especially during the playoffs. To me, you are watching the best players in the world, go head-to-head at a high level every game. The difference between the college level and the NBA is insane and I have a ton of respect for everyone that can play at that level. I also look forward to the nationally broadcasted games that usually take place almost every day of the week on ESPN, ABC, or TNT. When the game is on national television, players tend to go harder than normal and put on a show for the fans. 

    Whether or not you watch the NBA, it is one of my favorite times of the year. I am beyond excited to watch basketball every night and better learn the game of basketball. We should feel grateful that we are to have such a great sport to watch in America.

    Adam, I personally am a fan of the Lakers (Kobe, not LeBron) and they are not doing great. We've had some injuries already, but I hope they turn it around. Basketball is a great game to watch and I thoroughly enjoy every second!

Back on Campus

    After a much needed time off from athletics and academics, it is great to be back on campus. I was very thrilled to go home for a couple of long days. I wasn't only happy to go home because it was first time home in a month, but also because it will be last time home till Thanksgiving. We start our first week of practice this Friday and once that starts it is almost impossible to go home, so I made sure to enjoy my break.             I have always cherished my time I get when I am back home because you never know what can happen and when it could be your last time. That sounds very straight-forward but is the reality of life. As I stated, we start our basketball season this week and I am beyond focused and ready to start my third year on the basketball court. I am especially excited this year because I know the potential this team has this season especially since we are a lot older and more experienced now.      In the classroom, I am always glad to be back. I feel as if I have

Music Cures All

    Music cures everything in life. Sometimes I truly wonder what I would do without music. I use music every time I drive, work out, or even just around the house to help me focus. Not only does it help me focus, but it can help me get through a tough or confusing time in life. There are some days when I just put my headphones in and just block out all of the outside noise in life, and it works every time.      To me, all genres can be good, depending on the situation. If you are only listening to one genre, I feel as if you are limiting yourself. When I am working out it is usually rap or rock, but when I want to let loose, it can be country or electronic music. I listen to all genres of music on a daily basis but the old-school hard rock will always be my favorite. Old school rock is great and my dad grew up on it, so he introduced me to it. When I listen to it, I think about how much different life was back then and how much fun they had together and I wish it could be like that so

The Season Begins

     It is here, my senior year of college basketball. Typing that first sentence is already emotional and it is just getting started. Every day when I wake up, I tell myself, "just enjoy the ride," and it keeps me going. Not many people get the chance to play a game they love for an extra four years with great people, so I cherish it every morning. I remember playing my first ever basketball over 12 years ago, and now I am in my last go around, time flies.      We officially began practice on October 15th, and have already had a scrimmage. It is crazy to think how fast my senior year of college basketball came along, but I wouldn't trade friends and memories for anything in the world. This year, we got a new coaching staff and it has been amazing so far, and we have made great progress. Everyone loves each other, has bought in and is doing their role, which is amazing to be a part of. I am beyond excited to see how this season goes, and no matter what happens, I will for
