So sweet, and fun, and cute, and . . . . instructive! Never enjoyed a sports story more! :)

Loved it! The only bad part was when I went to click for the next chapter - I realized there was no second chapter. I'd hav to use my imagination. Damn. :)
Author's Response: But imagination's where all the good stuff is!

Oh wow. I love these "Jim in Charge" stories. So wonderful.
Author's Response:
Thanks! I like Jim in charge, too. Although Jim not-quite-in-charge is funnier. :D

AW, I really loved that! It was funny AND sweet.
Author's Response: Thanks, Big Tuna! :)

Loved this. It was hilarious! My fave parts:
-
"...because he's also pretty cute."
"...because Brad already went home."
"Amen."
"Your mom."
AND
"Yea, though I see superstars use nothin' but net,... I shall not swish."
And also pretty hot at the end!
Author's Response: Thanks, naomi! It's nice to hear which parts readers enjoy most :)

This was a great piece - the descriptions are so vivid and detailed that it makes everything very realistic. I don't understand any technical basketball terms, but I like that those details are in there, since they add so much to the authenticity of the story. Excellent!
Author's Response: Thanks, gwgal! Glad the details added that depth for you.
Date: January 17, 2007 03:22 pm Title: Chapter 1
Oh gosh. Another perfect piece from you -- I love everything about this, from your dialogue to your descriptions to... well, everything else. I love when she wonders if he's playing differently because she's there and then he tries not to but can't really help it. That always happens, and it's always cute, but this story is just undeniably adorable. Awesome job, as always.
Author's Response: Yay - I'm always happy to hear the dialogue sounds right to a reader. Thanks, allibabab!

Loved it!
My high school exchange student boyfriend and I were definitely well-versed in the whole 'basketball as release for sexual tension' thing, and you've captured it perfectly! I always love reading your work!
Author's Response: Ha! That's great, McGigi - Glad I was able to capture that - thanks! and high school exchange student boyfriend? - that's fantastic ;)

Fantastic fic- I loved the little shooting oath. You did a great job with the characters. Great story!
Author's Response: Thanks, Mel :)

Yay for basketball that leads to kissing that leads to overtime. You are *so* good with the details in your Lessons.
Author's Response:
Amen to the yays. Thanks a lot, Luna!

If this is what happens when your will power falters, than please, be a weak, self-serving coward because it rocked like whoa. Basketball fluff! :D
Author's Response: Ha! Thanks, moirariordan! I'm sure there's more spineless fic in my future :)
Date: August 24, 2006 10:09 pm Title: Chapter 1
YES. Seriously, I can't understand how you manage to make everything these two do so unbelievably hot. You could have them knitting or, like, mucking out horse stalls (why these two scenarios popped into my head, I don't know) and it would probably be hot. Kudos.
Also. This story made me realize: Jim as a gym teacher. I've seen fics where he's a teacher and fics where he's a basketball coach. Why is he never a gym teacher? It is the perfect job for him.
Once again, you're amazing and I'm so glad to have you back. And I'm (not so) patiently awaiting The Most Awkward Conversation Ever.
Author's Response: Hey - I picture him in an elementary school gym, having a quiet, encouraging conversation with an overweight little girl. Oh, Saint Jim. Thanks for your awesome feedback, as always, unfold! Writing TMACE now...

OK, as a basketball fan, I think this was one of my favorites!! BasketballJim is always good! Well done and in character. Glad the trip to Hoosier territory inspired you! I got the email this morning that this fic was up and had to get throught the rest of my day knowing this was waiting for me! Worth the wait.... It's all about the overtime! :-)
Author's Response: Thanks, Boof! It means a lot that a hoops fan liked it. Overtime rocks ;)
Date: August 24, 2006 06:18 pm Title: Chapter 1
What a sweet, sexy story! After my 10 hr trip today from IN to VA I needed this nice fluff! Yea for Hoosier basketball ideas!
Author's Response: Yea, indeed ;) Glad this one helped!

I already reviewed at ff.net but I thought I'd do it over here, also. I loved this, so much! The "oath" is priceless!
Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing twice, aggiegurl! Above and beyond ;)

Hot Damn. I always knew I loved basketball.
Author's Response: Heh, thanks, shannanagin ;)

These two make phenomenal playmates, don't they? They totally ft. Also, this was tremendously sexy.
Author's Response: Yes, they're at their best when they're playing - love that :) Thanks, nqllisi!

my 5'0" self has never had such a strong urge to play basketball before...
Author's Response: See? Now you have all kinds of tips to work with. Go find a 6-footer for some one-on-one ;)
Date: August 24, 2006 10:09 am Title: Chapter 1
Gah! Do you know how many times the boys I knew and crushed on in high school made jokes about playing "one on one?" And then you did this! With the sweat and the reaching around and the shouldering and the "overtime."
(*Can't decide whether she wants to hug Shan in thanks, or play a game of hoops with her. Maybe both.*)
Author's Response: Hee hee ;) LOTS of chances for contact in this one. I am weak. So I'm dragging the rest of you down with me! And I'm up for hoops anytime - unfortunately, I could teach it better than I play it :)
Date: August 24, 2006 09:48 am Title: Chapter 1
Not only are Jim and Pam adorable, but basketball is my favorite sport. *happy sigh*
Author's Response: Nice - b-ball love. Thanks, mixedberries ;)
