Shameless Reminder that Aaron Gordon went to my HS

[PerfectCell]

Our coach even flew to NYC to be with him on media day.

I went to HS with Deron Williams. I watched TJ Ford ball in the Greg. I played pick up with LeMarcus Aldridge. I sat next to Kevin Durant at the greg watching others ball.

Who gives a shit.

When he was a senior and i was a freshman. Really nice guy I remember at an open gym towards the beginning of freshman year my mom had to work late and AG was staying behind as always to shoot so I rebounded for him for half an hour and I swear i rebounded that ball the same way you would catch a large diamond falling from a shelf, the ball must have touched the ground only a handful of times in those 30 mins. Overall I was in awe but as the year went by I grew to treat him as a bro like everyone else instead of a celebrity.

We used to play against Mitty in pre-season games. Thankfully they didn't have Aaron Gordon back in '98. :oldlol:

I was in the same club as 2/5. He had a baseball cap on like he was trying to hide his hairline.

Very cool story bro.

Here's mine:

I was drinking a Canada Dry Ginger Ale at Raptors 3 on 3 tournament as a kid and Damon Stoudamiere asked me if I was drinking beer. He then dunked the ball to show us he could do it. My team got 2nd place and I ate at least 7 free samples of toaster struddles.

True story.

I found a used condom on the floor, had the dna tested, and it was Dwight's little swimmers.

Needless to say, I had it cryogenic frozen and it's now hanging in my game rame. Nicely framed and all, next to my Pete Rose signed baseball and a rare strand of Michael Jordan hair.

Cool. I was at this event put on by a radio station in Portland when I was a kid. Damon almost ran me over with his giant hummer, he didn't even care.

True Story.

I got High hopes for AG...seems like a very hard worker and will continue to improve his game.

If he keeps positive and focused ...no doubt he is an allstar in a few years.

Hopefully he does the South YaY proud.:cheers:

Considering that story and the fact you even made this thread, I'd say that's definitely not true
