We had a tournament this weekend with three other teams in our league. It was a 3 hour road trip to Imola, Italy. The first night we played the home team, Imola. We played fairly well but got into some serious foul trouble. I believe they shot around 33 free throws while we only scored 6 points at the stripe. Even with this handicap we had a chance to win late in the game. It was tied with about 35 seconds to go and Imola had the ball. The shot clock was winding down and they threw up a prayer from 3 that somehow found the bottom of the net. We were down three. We went to the other end and missed the opportunity to extend the game.
The next night we played well defensively. We did a lot of good things as team this game. Both on defense and offense we started to find some rhythm and chemistry. We still weren't hitting our shots like we would like to, but things are starting to come together. We started the game close but pulled away and ended up winning by around 15 points.

ReplyDeleteHi Brett,
ReplyDeleteI just finished reading all the posts on your blog. What a great opportunity and wonderful experience! Jenny and I spent a few hours in Lugano when we were in Europe five years ago. Beautiful city! We were in Italy for a week, but not in Milan at all. Enjoy and soak it all in. :) Thanks for the updates!
