GAMETIME!! - JAN. 10

We got back at it on January 10th! Our team started off slow, but never fell behind to far. Guess a little rust is expected after a two week break of games. The first half was all about getting back in sync with one another and getting our legs back under us. The first half wasn't that bad. We actually took the lead a couple of times, but was dominated on the boards. We lost our two big men right before the holiday break, so it hurt not having that size in the paint. At the half we were down eight. We made a big run at the start of the second half, cutting into their lead. We stuck with the team throughout teh second half, but unfortunately was never able to gain the lead. We ending up losing the game 100-84. The story of the game was a "battle of the boards", which we lost 42-23. Offensively, things were pretty good for the break, but we have got to work on figuring things out defensively. I finished the game with 31 points 7 assist 5 rebounds and 5 steals.

Next Game: Friday, January 17, 2014

I know it's been a while since any updates were posted. Here's what I've been up to lately. Mostly grinding. :-)

Thanksgiving: Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!  Though it's not celebrated in Iceland, I had to cook a little sumchin myself.  They don't have turkey's here so I had to go with a chicken, and some macaroni & cheese.  Also chatted with the fam on Facetime while watching some Auburn Football. #WarEagle

Basketball: We have games every Friday.  We lost the last game 114 - 124 in double overtime.  I had 42 pts, 10 ast, 5 rebs, and 4 stls.  Of course, in between games I continue to work out to get better.

Music: I'm literally making music everyday!  I've created 9 news songs just this month alone.  Keep an eye out for some new music soon.  Oh, also one of my songs is going to be played on either KissFM or FM957 radio in Iceland.  Ya boy doing bigs things!! Shout out to Marino for helping out.

DISTURBING THE NORMAL ARRANGEMENT

We started the game off sluggish, allowing our opponents to jump out to a 12 point lead in the first quarter. It would have possibly been more had we not picked up our defensive intensity towards the end of the quarter.

In the second quarter I dislocated my ring finger on my left hand on a hustle play. They rushed me out of the gym into the hallway, where one of the coaches popped it back in place and taped it up.  Now it did hurt, and even more so when he popped it back in place, but you know I went back in the game!  I'm a 'thug first'! LOL!  It took a little bit of adjusting to the flow, but once back in hit a few shots.  We went into the half down 8.

 In the third, we came out with the same intensity that we left with at half-time. Within three minutes of action we had taken the lead back. From there, the lead was back and forth through the end of the game. With one minute left in the game I was able to get a couple of quick back to back baskets but we were still trailing. With 11 secs remaining and down by 2, there was a huge hustle play where a few players from each team were scrambling on the floor after the ball.  One of my teammates ended up with the ball and through it out to me.  I made it past two defenders and got a clean look but missed the floater to tie the game.  We lost 73-71. I ended with 31 points and 4 assist.
