Stop hitting my hands....

"Stop hitting my hands." This is what one young man told me when in a pick-up game, "Stop hitting my hands; stop hitting my hands; you're hurting me." Well, what was he thinking about when we were playing basketball? He was thinking about his hands; he was thinking about the pain in his hands, which means he wasn't thinking about the goal; he wasn't thinking about what he was supposed to be doing. I had scored a victory. He then started trying to get even, by fouling me. In a real game, the referee would have intervened, and his anger would have gotten the best of him and gotten him fouled out. It's tougher in a pick-up game. :) listen
