Elle Leonard out to make a point about NBA players originally appeared on nbcsportsnorthwest.com

Over the past few months, Trail Blazers fans have gotten a real glimpse into the life of the Leonards at their home gym and fans are enjoying the social media videos.

Meyers Leonard's wife, Elle Leonard posted "A little #MondayMotivation" to her twitter account on January 28th showing off her moves on the basketball court.

A lot of the replies are what you might expect --- people were impressed with Mrs. Leonard's crossover and step-back.

How can you not be?

But, there were also replies to the tweet that were aimed at her husband and how she should teach Meyers her moves or how her outside shot is better than Meyers'.

With all of those types of comments, that prompted Elle to take to her blog about how NBA players "make it look so easy" out on the court and fans need to show more respect.

Elle wrote:

"I've played basketball. I've watched way too many games. And, I've attended quite a few as well. But no matter how experienced that I think I am, I'm not an NBA player. What they do is extraordinary. It's so incredible that these guys make it look effortless. I once equated their natural abilities to a "lazy" style of NBA play. But now, that has turned into an insane appreciation of these world-class athletes."

Elle used this video of her and Meyers working on a few drills at their home gym as an example in her written piece:

This blog post at elleleonard.com is meant to invoke thought on how easy sports fans judge professional athletes.

Elle tweeted out her post with the caption, "There have been so many comments made about my shooting versus @MeyersLeonard11..."

There have been so many comments made about my shooting versus @MeyersLeonard11 . It stuns me that people can't see the difference.

So, I wrote this piece. https://t.co/VlhDpMq486

Elle had this question for fans:

"We don't watch Grey's Anatomy and think that we're a doctor. After a season of Suits, we're not any closer to being a lawyer. Even passing a basic college accounting class doesn't make us a CPA… So, what allows us to judge athletic professionals based on our experience?" –Elle wrote on her blog post.

The #MondayMotivation video was not the first time Elle has showed off her jumper. In mid November, she posted a video of her shooting mid-range ‘Js' with Meyers rebounding for her. She captioned the video on Twitter with "This is what Meyers Leonard and I call a day date."

Elle has posted various other videos either to her Twitter or Instagram with some of her trick shots as well.

It's obvious many fans respect Elle's game, but she wants to make sure others are giving NBA players the respect they deserve too.
