Zhenghua 3 - on 3
6:28 PM

It was a hot and sunny morning at eleven am where almost all the players started to gather at Zhenghua CC for a early lunch prior to the game.

The registration commenced at tweleve pm and we had a lucky pick on the grouping, but our initial team we had to play was the champion contender team, so we went down to the loser bracket to fight it out. It was a good game, never easy, we managed to win 2 games before we made it to the Top 8. A win in this game would seal us into the top 4 fight.

In this game we had to deal with a young center above 180 and a fast point guard who has proven worthy in the past few games, becoming the black horse advancing round after round.

My job in this game, my role was to guard down the fast point guard and hopefully win on the defence and offensively we tried to stall time. The game rule was FIBA 3 on 3, which was the first time we're playing with this set of rules. The inital start was good, I mananged to stop the opponent from even getting any possession. But however on a critical pick, i bruised my thigh as the center who came for the pick happened to have his knee cap right at the position i had to run past. I dropped on the floor and couldn't get up and I was dead worried that I had a muscle tear as I couldn't lift my right leg. It was only after a few possessions they decided to stop the clock and attend to me.

In the time that i was not able to get up, my team lead by 1 and attempted to stall the time. In the second half, I saw that Bon Kiat was already dead tired by helping to guard the opposing point guard that after a good strecth, i decided to give it the last shot.

We end up in a draw after not being able to score on the last possession. I missed the free throw (i.e like a pentaly shoot out) and the opposing team won.

Kudos to Ron, Bon Kiat, Meredith. We're good.
