The one(Klay Thompson)

chapter 7

Klay's POV

We walked on the court and I handed her a ball

Me:1 on 1

Alex began to dribble: sure

Me: you left handed

Alex : I'm either handed

Me : OK

Alex : I get ball first

Me :yeah

I went up to her. She began to dribble and sped past me making a lay up

Alex : I get my change back

Me : OK

Alex : you're not guarding me

Me : I was trying to but you sped off like Wilma Rudolph

She rolled her eyes

Alex : excuses Thompson

Me : I'm telling the truth, for a small girl you' re probably  faster than
most NBA players

Alex : OK check

She passed  me the ball full force. I passed it back. She began dribbling I started playing defense on her. She dribbled it through her legs, the crossed it and started going to the goal. I ran up to her causing her tho spin and take her two steps into a layup.

Me : hold on, that wouldn't be a travel

Alex : no, I moved my pivit foot and took two steps into my layup.

Me : you are actually better than I thought

Alex smiled: check

She passed me the ball. I passed her the ball back. She dribbled the ball towards me and pulled back shooting a three. She held up three fingers and  waved it in my face.

Alex : THREE

I smiled at her and got the ball. Next thing you know she is doing the moon walk.

Me laughing : come on now

Alex smiling : Do you want the ball

Me : No

Alex: the reason why you can keep up is because you can't  play defense looking at the top half of someone's body

I looked at her confused

Alex : what I'm saying is when you are defending, you have to look at their waist down because they can't move without their legs. That's how you get your ankles broke because you are to busy  looking at the person not their legs

Me : I think I get it

Alex took the ball from me. She started driving to the goal  with me right beside her. She then crossed and stepped right to shoot a jumper. And making it.

Me :I quit

Alex :why

Me :because you are really good, and I want to take you to get ice cream

Alex : so that means I win

Me : unfortunately

Alex : yes, can you take me to my house so I can change

Me : yes, if you come to my practice

Alex rolled her eyes : really, I doubt that you practice is even interesting.

I looked at her : whatever you say

Alex : well it looks like you are my slave for the day so you have to do what I say, it was part of the deal
