Motivation

It’s crazy how motivation can be found in different places. Sometimes motivation comes from positive situations. Positive moments.  Someone may do or say something to motivate another. Well look deeper into motivation and you will see there’s no better motivation than the negative. When you deserve something that has been snatched from you. When you were already  motivated and worked for what you wanted to be overlooked as though they didn’t see those blood sweat and tears.
Watching what they call a “Draft” for motivation because next year that’s where I want to be.Started out ok...when it ended it had me thinking “Is this where I want to be?” Ok the top International players probably deserved to go, but near the end I just didn’t no anymore. Calling guys names that I cant spell and average 0.7 points per game, instead of picking college players with some real game? Then it hit me that there was a loop hole in the system. Picking players overseas they know they won’t ever see and never have to pay, but us college players are the victims. I watched Vlad take American and turn them into a solid team. I watched Skeen take his team on a run that I only dreamed. I watched Austin play on an All American level, still don’t know how he didn’t go..especially when pick 56 and 57 was Chukwudiebere Maduabum and Targuy Ngombo. But none worse than watching the leader of my team name not come across the board. Ive seen clutch shot, great leadership, hard work, and those blood sweat and tears over the years. Defense? He got that. Offense? Have you seen the kid!? Size for his position? Got that too. Couldn’t help but look at the board at some of those names and think “Cam will kill him smh”. Even thought to myself if theguy I’ve followed for 3 years can’t make it..how can I?
Before I went to sleep I saw a tweet from my boy. “Don’t  worry bout me guys im great  if ur wondering. Imma b the under dog comin out of nowhere #ballin” At that moment I couldn’t help but think that he was in his truck on the way to the gym.  That’s when It hit me..as hard as he worked before..that motivation jus grew even more. It’s far from over.. they just created a MONSTER! Maybe a few..counting him and me..they created atleast  2!!!
