love for Basketball
Been studying in campus for a sem ready, but did not really go to the basketball courts, at most juz passed by, and envying those guys playing..din find ball-mates at all
finally, that is history.
steven invited me to the bball club in sch, after so many days doing research and project, it always feels great to accompany ya friends to do some physical training, to vent ya accumulated frustration over the past few weeks. made some new friends there, all the hardcore basketballers, some of them are fairly good players. especially got this guy who shares similar style as weiloong, but of coz less teasing, and less act cool, and less crappy..much less, he's good lad, organising offence on the court, to me that's quite a sign of good player.
althou ma neck was aching, but hu cares...stretching arms and legs, ready for the game, those guys looked tough, so i expected rough games. maybe din warm up enough, steven and i were not really ready for those guys who were already burning...after i got a shot in, we stopped scoring and it became the show for the opponents, badly trashed...but there's always a come back..the third game, we defeated the two tough teams, crack the tough nuts but subsequently lost to the less threatening team, most probably due to exhaustion among our guys, at least i was quite exhausted after running loops and loops to get rid of the defence from the previous two teams. nevertheless we are proud of each other for putting up good offence against them, despite our defence isn't that impressive.
after a short break, we re-teamed and now, steven is ma enemy...
well, din really get to face off with steven, coz they made a bloody nerd to man-mark me...what the heck is that?! all the rest of them can switch defence, only i would be "glued" by this guy, and he is a "super glue"...the glue man will not juz defend me, he merely leaned against me whenever i was on the move or even i stood still, and he even hug me when i got the ball!! haf to make several calls of foul, that really pissed me off...but, he's a good runner. ma initial intention was to out-run him, in the end, he out-ran me..i was gasping for air, and he still leaned against me!!! there's a litmit to ma tolerance, i told him in the face"will u f**k off?"...hmm, that was not really effective, coz he then only left me alone when i was gasping for air...never mind, i would find ma way to get rid of him...making sprints and abrupt stops, i got rid of him sometimes and easy shots were made, his only flaw in the footing was putting too much momentum in one direction, so when i "emergency brake" he was not able to react in time physically, there u go! but the price for that is a crampped leg and stiff muscle at the back...
was waiting for bus at 9pm, holding ma ball-shoes by the shoe laces...quite a wired sight i guess. riding home with qing zhang, our aj senior. felt so freshed, after sweating and all that.
it's juz a beginning...
