Finally a win. The team wasn't great, but really it was that we played better. I was my usual self, but with a little more confidence and as always plenty of hustle. Worst part was that I rolled my ankle pretty good near the end.

At least we had a shot in this game. It was close throughout, and they were pretty soft. But alas we could not get the job done. I had a decent night.

We got destroyed. It was never a game. This team was hitting 3's like they were Ray Allen on crack. It was quite demoralizing.

We lost yet again. This time in overtime. It was painful to say the least.

It was the last game of the season and it was a win or go home situation. We needed to win as there was a 3 way tie for 3rd place in the league at 5-4. Yes, we were playing the only winless team in the league, but they sure didn't play like it. They were as hungry if not hungrier to get their first win than we were. It was almost like everyone on our team knew we were playing the worst team in the league. 

We were losing during the whole game and were down by as many as 12 in the 2nd half. But for some reason, the worst team in the league started to implode. They racked up 2 technicals after sending one of our best players to the line. He ended up making all 6 free throws and we had the ball (only down by 5). Before you know it we were in the lead with a few minutes to go. We went back and forth and eventually secured the win. Now, we're in the playoffs, which start on Friday. The bad news is that I'm not going to be able to play in the playoff game(s). I'm out of town all this weekend. Oh well, at least I helped us get there.

Played some ball at the park today. There were enough people there that we got some 3 on 3 action. I was teamed up with Glenn both games we played and we handled our competition pretty easily.

Another big win. We're one win away from making the playoffs. And the last game is against the worst team in the league. Pretty sure that would be a jinx, except even if we make the playoffs I can't play. Damn bachelor party!

Played some ball with Glenn at the park today.

This was probably the biggest win of the season for us. We were playing the same team we played in week 1. We lost to them then and needed to beat them to have any chance of making the playoffs. It was a close game all the way through. We had the lead through most of it, but came close to coughing it up a couple of times. We held on in the end with some good D and rebounds. I didn't have a great game personally, but I did my job.

Another loss, but this one came with some real positive points. We played the best team in the league. They were 6-0 coming in and were undefeated for a reason. They're all pretty big, with the exception being one of their guards who's probably their best player. It's never fun to lose, but when you go down 13-0 minutes into the game and crawl your way back in to make it close (we got within 4 a couple of times), that feels good. And on an individual level, it may have been one of my best games. Not so much in the box score, but in many other ways. I got a bunch of offensive boards (against some big dudes). I was moving to the ball real well, anticipating where it would go. I also was much more aggressive in getting to my spots, boxing out, and as always general hustle. I also felt like I was defending pretty well, which was a tall order with some of those dudes. A loss with subtle overtures of a moral victory. Still a loss though!

Played some ball with Glenn at the park today. Good games. Always fun.

We played pretty shitty as a team, and I was no exception. It was also the least I've ever played, which was a little annoying, but might have been for the best. We came within 8 a few times but couldn't close the gap.

This was probably our worst showing yet. They had a pretty big guy that I was covering for a good portion of the game. It was kinda fun to get a little rough down there. Dude still scored on me, but I didn't make it very easy.

Tonight was probably one of our best wins to date. I might just be saying that cause I had a career night. But the team we played also seemed decent. And I'm pretty sure we lost to them at least once last season.

Finally, more ball with Glenn at the park today. It was a tough 2 games. Glenn had most of the first, but I wore him down. In the 2nd I had a huge lead (14-3), but he came all the way back to 14-11. Then I finished him off.

Another Win, 61-43.
