Slow Night

It's been way over a month since I last posted anything.

Two Saturdays ago my office basketball team played it's first league game. We lost 71 - 16. 55 point loss.

Goddamnit.

League basketball games are way more intense than weekend runs. I can only imagine how intense varsity games are.

I was way out of shape, I started heaving breaths after only two trips up and down the court. The only jump shot I attempted I threw too strong, hit the backboard only, about two feet above the ring.

But I had a blast.

It was fun, honestly. Office camaraderie showed. We all had a good time even if we lost, and we weren't sore losers. Plus I got some workout going, which is something I always need.

I did notice some things I need to improve upon for the next game. I have to be more aggerssive down low (I play center), I need to set picks, I need to box out, and I need to use both arms to rebound.

My final stat line? 0-1 field goals, 1 defensive rebound.

I suck.

Next game's this Friday. I can't wait.

Out.
