My Basketball Game

In my basketball game over my weekend we won but it was a close.  At the first part of the game the other team was making so many 3-pointers that we were down 19-3.  Then near the end of the second part of the first half we cut the lead to 21-17.  Then my coach told us what we need to fix in the second half and we did that and the score was 29-27.  We kept on fighting until finally my dad said we are running our full court press Michigan.  We have never ran it in a while since our front man in the press go sick and had 2 concussions.  They didn’t know what to do and we kept getting steal after steal and we were tied 32-32 with 34.2 seconds left.  Then we got another steal and scored and we took the lead 34-32.  Then after that got another steal and they had to start fouling us.  My team passed it into me and I ran around and then they fouled me.  We did the same thing my team passed it into me and I ran around until they fouled me again.  we did that 1 more time until I got to shoot free throws.  There was 0.3 seconds on the clock.  It was 1 and 1.  On 1 and 1 if you miss it the ball is live.  But if you make it you get another one.  I missed it and they grabbed the rebound and time ran out but then the refs said the other team got a timeout with 0.2 seconds.  They tried to pass it in but we got the steal and the clock ran out and we won.  P.S. celebration 2.0.  As you can see we won a close one this weekend.
