I'm really enjoying being apart of the Tofas basketball team, we have been having some really intense basketball practices that is something I'm actually use to having such coaches as Byron Smith, Billy Gillespie and previous coaches in Europe! Despite being in pretty good shape I still find myself pretty exhausted ¾ of the way through practices, I just telling myself with tough practices like this the games should be a little bit easier because we would have been battling all week long against each other. We had some really good practices in Bolu, where we had a 10 day camp and even better practices in Bursa, I personally am still getting the plays down and the defensive scheme but things are coming along. My teammates have been great on and off the court they are truly funny bunch. On the court then encourage me and the others whenever we mess up on the plays or the defensive assignments, it took me me a little while to get down the new ways of guarding the pick and roll but the captain of the team kept reminding me the right way to do it. We have a lot of scrimmage games coming up and even though we haven't been together long, I think we can make some noise off just our effort and teamwork, which can always go a long way!
