Personal Narrative Essay: NBA Finals Night

NBA Finals Night

It was a very cold night and I was ready to get in the shower and lay on the couch with some Schwan's ice cream and a Vikings blanket. Just then I remembered it was NBA finals night! I was so excited and threw on my lucky black Under Armour underwear and my dad put on his lucky tan Carhartt shirt. We got the softest blankets in the house and memory foam pillows. I had some Hershey's chocolate and ice cream my dad also had a cherry popsicle.We clicked on the tv and there was the worst part of the game! Golden State was in the lead!
Golden State lead by 17! Cleveland was falling apart and Curry kept hitting threes. Everyone thought it was all over Cleveland was going to lose again. I was going to scream if Curry got any cockier.

    The first time I learned basketball was when I am at the 6th grade when my physical education teacher registered me in a basketball summer camp. I used to be a shy and quiet girl but since joining the summer camp I started to socialize and have friends. After two months of learning basketball, I began to like it. Then, I started playing basketball in high school as part of my school’s team and I’ve been playing ever since. It started out as just an activity, and then became a hobby that’s something fun to do but later on, I found that I really like basketball.…
