It's All Coming Together

Sorry for the late ass post. Celebrating the teams victory over Sac High yesterday to place 3rd place in the Cordova Shootout. Can't believe we did it. If we could do that against Sac High continuously then we can dominate the Metro League. We've improved dramatically since our Oakridge Blowout and the team is looking forward to the season. For the few people who are actually following this, we got a game on Tuesday vs. Rocklin @ 5:30. Thanks for reading and i'll talk to you later!

Johnson Warriors!

Mhmm... Today was our like 10th game of preseason, and ever since coach put out that new offense, damn we be blowing teams out. I think that we have improved dramastically, but the real test is that Sac High Tourney. We are going to face some hard players if we play Sac High, like jalen white and darius graham. They are 2 old friends from my previous school. Wish us luck because Thurs, Fri, and Sat. are going to be hell on the court.

Failure leads to success

Lost our 2nd game today... sucks balls. Didn't even get to play, but it was very exciting. I got so into the game, jumping off my chair, going "black" crazy LOL. Nah, but we only lost by 2 to Casa Noble. I can tell that our practice is working because after that blow out, we became a "FIST" we are unified. I believe we have a thirst and we are going after that team tommorrow. Wanna watch me sit :DDD. Game is at 5:30 , at St. Paul Church, just down 14th on the left, impossble to miss. Im out, peaceee.

Game Time

We got a killer load of games coming up. We have like 6 games this and next week and probably I'm not going to get much PT. I really love the game, but I have to stop trying to have fun and start being serious. If I want to accomplish these my goals, I'm going to put everything I have into basketball and try my hardest every second.

Echos

Same shit today. It got me mad because the coach was pointing out everything I did wrong. But I listened. He basically pointed out my flaws. I'm weak and I'm not aggressive enough. His voice echoed through and through my head. This little reform that I'm trying to push through does not seem look like its working. Right when I was about to give up, I remembered the people who want me to fail. I told myself, I should not quit until I'm either dead or I'm coach kicks my sorry ass off the team. Anyways besides that, the coach got in a fight with our center. I didn't think Evan should of said anything, but his anger blinded his thought. Even worse, Deandre got in trouble too. He wasn't "mentally" prepared for practice, so he got benched for practice. Then when he was asked if he was ready he shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't know he was or was not ready to play. Pretty bad day, but I leave the past behind, and play for the next day. It seems I need a lot more practice before I can even be up to par with the starters.

Growing.

Just one of those typical days. Wake up, school, basketball. But the real thing bothering me today was basketball. I felt so weak, so out of place. Ever since I've been moved up to JV I haven't done shit to impress the coach. I thought that I had enough to play at JV level, but I realized that I'm a scared dog in an ally. I know that I have to step up, and its my mistake from the beginning for not busting my ass to get up there. I promise myself from now on I will expand my game, both becoming mentally and physically stronger. I don't want regrets during our metro league. I know that one month from now I would have either exceeded the limits of what others think I can reach or I will stay that same scared boy. When the post season starts I have to be in that starting rotation. I MUST become number 1, and in order to do that I have to pay attention to what the my teamates and the coach have to say.
