Layup

Looking at the other team while warming up I thought to myself it's know way we can win they was much bigger and stronger. They also beat my team two times in the regular season so therefore my chance of winning was very low. It was my turn to shoot a layup and I missed. I begin to get embarrassed for missing in front of all those people. Also nervous for having a bad game. Hearing the other team crowd booing my team while we was warming up was kind of motivating because I could shut…

it so we went in to OT. In OT I decided I was going to go off and win my team to a victory. Me and my team made the first 2 shots of the game coming up by 4 and it was a good game to be only in the 3rd grade. In a crazy sequence they hit a 3 and a layup going up by 1, with only a couple of seconds left. We called timeout and made a play for me to shoot it, we executed it right all the way until the dude hit me and fouled me all the way to the grown, they didn’t call foul. I busted out crying…

to the side to express to them that we needed them to continue the game. Eventually, the timeout was over and we were on our way back on to the court. There was one minute left to go and we were down five. I immediately drove the ball in for a layup and got fouled. That was a three point play, and God knows we needed that. There was now thirty seconds on the clock, and we had no timeouts left. Our hearts were pounding none stop as they shot the ball, but they missed. The ball was back in…

It was 2013, and my junior year of highschool, and I still remember it like it was yesterday. I was at an optimal time in my life, and my future was looking bright.I had everything that a seventeen year old teenager dreamt of having in high school. I had over a 4.0 GPA, great group of friends, captain of the varsity basketball team, and was well known and liked by pretty much the entire school. Up to this point in time, I had led my team to three consecutive league titles where I had earned…

turnovers, no one had gone on a stretch, after the first quarter the score was Green Run 10 Cox 9. The 2nd Qtr we had a little more action.

Jordan Williams came up big becoming unstoppable inside the paint just having his way with the Stallion defenders on both ends of the court. Cox had been hitting Green Run with everything they had but 2 big steals from Ashley…

Through six games this season, the Cavs have had to erase early deficits in several contests — And Friday night’s matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers was no different. “That’s a fact — We started slow the last two games,” Cavs head coach David Blatt said. “The sample size is small, but we did mention it.” Despite another slow start against Philadelphia Friday, the Cavs (5-1) pulled away to pick up a 108-102 victory in Quicken Loans…
