Really...... Are you serious?

As middle school and high school basketball seasons reach their midway point for most teams, I have had an opportunity to make the rounds and watch some of the games from time to time.
It always amazes me when parents of kids that don't play AAU or highly competitive basketball make comments that are off the wall regarding players that do Play.
There is a reason some players stand out. Simply put, they have put in the time, work and commitment.
So when I hear things like "That girl is only good cause she is fast" or "That girl is just lucky" or how about "She is not that good!"
 
Excuse me sir or mam......
Really...... Are you serious?
