Jim Goll Gymnasium Dream
I was in a big brightly lit gym shooting basketball. There was another guy with me. Jim Goll was at the same basket we were. He was bigger than what he is, healthier, not skinny at all. He was balding on top, but had long grey hair hanging down from the back just past his shoulders.
I shot one and missed.
He said “you might be better off to go straight to the basket.”
He then dribbled right past me and did a layup. I was surprised how high he jumped.
The guy with me wanted to try to dunk it. He was looking for a machine that would automatically raise the rim but we couldn’t find it. I saw a hand crank we could use but he said that would take to long. (Strange thing is, it was already the right height, why would we raise it?)
We kept shooting and at one point the ball got stuck but after a couple minutes it fell, tho this wasn’t a basketball more like a dodge ball.
I noticed a group of guys on another part of the court, so I walked over to talk with them. The whole time Jim is shooting baskets and doing layups by himself.
The group was watching him. Jim did not say anything but I knew he wanted to try to dunk it as well. The group was talking like he couldn’t do it. I said I’m not so sure, the way he had jumped up and done the layup, he was plenty high enough to dunk it.
(I thought he could do it)
End of dream
