Julian Newman - an analogy
LINK FOR CONTEXT: https://youtu.be/\_-si0DCtqNk?is=AIz7FcWkWGObYxI-
You are studying 5 hours a day outside of class. Reading, reading again to highlight, synthesizing, going to office hours, making every hour productive. Staying up late taking notes. Colored highlighters, watching Quimbee videos, rereading the historical context of a case from the 80s.
Julian Newman catches the inbound pass, dribbles furiously to his left, tween, tween behind the back, hesi shamgod, spins right. He reaches the free throw line. Gets mega low and dribbles as fast as possible walking slow, the occasional tween. He reaches half court. He starts skipping? then gets down low again, tween tween spin on the ground, get up hesi, shot fake (REF THATS A CARRY) and spins right. Then, he slows down, and sizes up the 6’5” defender who hasn’t moved a muscle since the first tween 50 feet down the court.
Just stay up to date with the readings, know the rules/a general sense of why a judge ruled that way. Do that till Halloween, and you’ve reached half-court. While dribbling straight up the court. Read, take notes, go to class, pay attention, go home.
The 6’5” defender is the exam. November is when u actually learn how to get past him and dunk on someone’s ah. As long as you dribble the ball up the court and get to him, ur in the same position as the Julian Newmans. chillllllllllllll youll all be fine.
All these wild hours you are pulling and crazy routines in week 3 are fine: you are just dribbling the ball up the court like Julian Newman
TWEEN, TWEEN.
Disclaimer: Newman did cook some fools back in the day. Sure looks silly now tho. Also this is supposed to be funny, if ur a Julian I acknowledge many thought he was gonna be the next AI back in 2k16.
