i played today, lost 37-35. The team we versed has beaten us 2 out of 3 times because they have a state player. When he was away though we blew them out by 25 so that says something. We started by getting up 13-1 as none of their shots were dropping. They came back in the 2nd half and started firing and a lot of their shots dropped. My first basket came from a pull up jumper but after that I went cold. Played the whole game and finished with only 7 points off about 3/12 shooting, very terrible for me, they ran some offenses for me and usually I would have hit about 7/12 of those shots and got around 18 points. Got about 3 assists, not many boards and 2 steals.
Towards the end the game was real tight, with 3 minutes left we were up 27-25. They came back with a few baskets and I scored on a driving layup to pull us back within 35-29. There was 45 seconds left, we imbounded, found me open and I drained the 3 to get us back down 35-32. However they scored on the next posession, 37-32 with 10 seconds left and our point guard lost the ball in a trap.
We have our main big guy who used to be really good. However he's been a little unfit and a tad lazy lately. The main big guy on the other team (the other team is from my school as well, they're Knox Blue, we're Knox Black) recently joined the A's at school and was mocked because he was the worst on the team. However he dominated our big guy who mainly mocked him.
Our big guy finished with like 6 points, 8 rebounds, 3 steals while the big guy from the opposition really showed poise and improvement and he had a double-double with 14 points, 12 rebounds and 3 swats.
Our point guard was scoreless while our other swingman (me being the main one for offensive looks) was on fire today for about 17 points.
Trey I hate those dirty players... I remember my first game for seniors when I was only 18. I only played about 5 mins max that game... and only scored 2pts! Even though that was the game sealing lay up! 20 seconds left we were up by 2.. the other team left me wide open so i had the easiest game sealing fast break lefty lay up. BACK TO THE POINT trey.. I remember going for a board and somebody hand squeezing my back with all their might! Had fingernail marks and stuff.. I was thinking jeez welcome to real basketball! Guys.. sounds like we have some awesome three shooters around... Trey, Jvalles etc sounds like you guys never miss lol
