Three. . . two. . . one. . . and its good! Number twenty-three, Kevin makes the game winning shot from behind the arch!...then I woke up. I couldn’t wait for this game to get here. This game to me is a famous person’s trip to the Grammy Awards. Memories of past sports experiences went through my head, and I suddenly noticed this is my first championship game. This would be my last year in the High School league, and then we would move up to the senior league. Moving up was like going from college to the pro’s, so we knew this was our last chance to pull off a miracle win. The anticipation to me was like a little kid’s first day of school. Then the time came to head out to the battleground, Oak Lawn high school’s gymnasium. Arriving at the empty court, I had an idea of what it would be like in about forty-five minutes. Right now it was like a Clippers game. . . empty, and in a few it would be like a Lakers game. We had invited everyone possible that we new, from family to neighbors to my girlfriend’s parents. Here we went to the locker room to discuss the strategic game plan and find out the starters. We had a basis of how they liked to play. Everyone on that team was a ball-hog . Their best player was their point guard, so we decided to play a defense called a box-and-one. This is where there is a player at each corner of the key, and one guy plays man-to-man on their point guard.
