This is what you dream of winning the game and big shots
The ball in your hands 3 seconds left on the game clock
The shot goes up the opponents face tells it all
They see their season ending with the release of the ball
The shot goes in! We win! They love you!
The fans are insane! Calling your name! They hug you!
“We goin to the ship” cries can be heard aloud.
“Let’s go Huskies” chanting in the crowd…
But no, of course we know this isn’t the case.
They give you the chance but you just fall flat on your face.
“Some leader” they say—when all we needed was one.
Just get one more stop then the game, we’d have won!!
A freethrow—it says it all in the name!
You get a free shot!! The easiest part of the game.
A clank of the rim—the season is done its complete.
And we walk away with that wack feeling of defeat..
to see the look on their face to know I’ve let them down
it something that hurts so bad and I just have to live with it now…
Dream! Seek! Achieve!
Jordan vs Rose.
You ever get so MAD/ANGRY because the whole week has just gone so bad?! Games, practices, coach is all over you. You don’t do anything right. You can’t buy a basket. Your d SUCKS. Grades are starting to slip and it just seems like the best thing to do is to just THROW. IN. THE. TOWEL. “I quit.” You ever have those days?? Hooping just to seems to be against you and you start to question it like, “Dude, I love this game. Why is this happening? All I do is work, grind, practice, be dedicated. Why??” And then, finally, practice is amazing. The next game you go for 25/7/7. Get an A on the test. Coach says “Good Job.”
We all get those days. Can’t quit tho. Gotta find the will within to win. Push through. Persevere. Attack the wall then bust through it!! Do not give up when you are down.
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid.”
