fred's last game (he's going back to hk), so we wanted to send him off on a good note. the guys we played were 3-0, so it was always going to be a tough game. we managed to hang on for a 35-31 win, after leading 21-13 at the half. they were a pretty dirty team, and this one guy (tall guy), just kept talking trash, just couldn't shut him up, we beat them, that sorta did it. we started off pretty well, and just seemed to have the quickness and athleticsim to run them out, but they were a pretty decent shooting side, making a good number of jump shots to stay in it.
simon and fred were knocking down the outside jumpers, and inside, i could've scored so much more, but missed some shots i should've made. i couple times on the break, i was able to get to the basket, but just couldn't finish, it was pretty frustrating, i managed to score one at the death to ice the game though (after missing two free throws
). that guy that was talking trash (i think this really got him started, midway through the first half), we were under the basket, and off a missed shot, i knocked the ball into his face, and he was getting in my face, and jawing away. i was just like, "settle down", i can't believe they actually called a foul on me. they also called a foul on me for over the back, just cos i outreached the guy by jumping straight up and getting it. the refs just don't get it sometimes.
anyways, we're 3-1 now (don't know if this means we're going up, i hope not), one more week of grading to decide that. i scored nine (and shoulda had heaps more), and was 3/6 from the line, season tallies, 38 points, 10/16 from the line.
