The Brothers
Last night was special.
As we took the court, a player on the other team said to me. "We saw you praying before the game. You guys are a certainty to win now, with God on your side". Although this comment could be taken as "Trash Talk", the guy is a member of St Pauls Carlingford, so was very tongue in cheek.
But lets just say, maybe he was right :)
Our previous clash with this team, had lead to an astounding 28-28 draw. A scoreline not seen often in local comp bball. The winner of last nights game, assured of #1 position on the ladder going into the finals next week.
In the opening minutes, we blew out to a 13-0 lead. And from there, they never caught us.
It was one of those games that everything went right. Shooting %'s were high, rebounding was exceptional and defence won the game. It felt like God was on our side :)
Tim Clemens and yours truly lead the scoring with 23 and 25 respectively, while Morgan surely picked up 20 rebounds! Defence by Leigh, Chris and Gerard was faultless, as was their rotation of the ball around the key.
But one thing if for sure. the team known as 'Glock Stock' will be wanting revenge in the final in 2 weeks time.
Will you be there to support us?

P.s - Thankyou to all who posted comments from my previous post. I have been struggling to think of something to post after the excitement of the last post. So, this post may be a let down to you, but it was close to my heart :)
