    Dear 18-year-old David,

    Please allow me to give you fair warning about something from the future.
    Tomorrow morning, you’re going to take your first swim test at the U.S. Naval Academy. Believe it or not, the Navy requires plebes to actually be able to swim.

    Of course, you know that part already. You’re in good shape, right? What’s a little morning swim?

    But what you might not realize is just how long 20 minutes of treading water feels like.

    That’s right, 20 minutes.

    When you first get into the pool, you’re going to be feeling good. But after 10 minutes, your arms and legs are going to be burning so bad you’ll want to quit. After 15? I don’t even want to tell you.

    But you’ll think about your dad, and what he’d say if you failed, and you’ll find a way to keep your head above water for 20 minutes.

    The only problem is, you’re not done yet. Your stone-faced water survival instructor will bark, “Alright, next up: 100-meter crawl stroke.”

    There’s no break. There’s no, “Sir, can I catch my wind?”

    You are overboard in deep open water without a PFD (personal floatation device), or at least that’s what your instructor is yelling. Sink or swim, plebe.
    You choose to swim.

    What kept his head above water was his undying will to proselytize to others in the pool.

    he should have wrote a letter to his 29 year old self saying,

    "Dear 29 year old David. You have been awarded the NBA regular season MVP. Talk to the Spurs organization and have the commissioner not present that to you before the Houston Rockets series. Also, don't go for ever Hakeem fake that series when he shows you the ball. I know it's easier said than done, but that's right, stay on your feet. Also, next year during the All Star Game there in San Antonio, Shaq is going to attempt a dunk in the 4th quarter. Wrap him up before he leaves the ground, because you have no chance of blocking it. "

    I love the effort to equate the Naval Academy's approach to athletics and athletes to LSU's.

    "Those athletes at Yale and Harvard can't right easys, either. There college athletes and I saw that Ben Simmons doc."
