Recommended: Roles and responsibilities of sports coaches

The Speech felt like all the knowledge of basketball was flowing through my mind at that very moment. I remember his exact words, “This team hasn't worked as hard as us, they haven't come as far as us, and they certainly don't deserve this trophy more than us.” That speech flow like the ocean's wave on a warm morning in Hawaii. Coach Luke had always been that coach that expects the best from you and well that actually paid off for him sometimes. But this was the championship there was no guarantee of an easy win, it probably was going to be one of our hardest games all season.
The first quarter was a very slow game and we were losing fight off the bat. The game was more intense than batman and the joker fighting. We were getting smacked they had drained 5 3 pointers. It was a battle for the comeback. I just wish we would have had the lead the entire 1st to 3rd quarter. …show more content…

We had the crowd on their feet the game was so intense, more than a bullfight in Rome. The game was close all the way to the end, which left us with a 3 point lead with 30 seconds left in the game.
We ended up winning the game by 5 points. At the end all the parents ran on the floor like in the movies which was amazing. It was like we were living in one of our best dreams. The parents were like 50,000 fans at the NBA game 7 of the finals in Cleveland vs. Golden State. The other team was upset they lost are we congratulated them and shook hands and told them good jobs which really it was a really intense game the whole way though.
We had won the game and made an amazing comeback probably the best comeback in 7th grade is basketball history if you ask me. The ride home from the game that night was special I ask myself if I thought I could pursue my dream of basketball is yes I thought so. The future awaits for the truth to be

I leaped as high as I could and unfortunately missed the tip the game was already heading south but the game had just started so we had no worries. The first quarter had several lead changes we both had bad shooting quarters shooting below the 30% but that wasn’t what mattered we were all worried about looking good as a team and winning the game not individual stats. About ¾ of the way through the first quarter our coach called a timeout and called us to the sideline and said “Guys you are a great group of kids and have made my coaching experience beyond expectable and you are a bright group of kids so after this season I’ll be retiring and making sure I go out with bang so win this game for me!” and that’s when the game took a drastic change, we began to play with our heart not just our

The game started pretty slow with no one scoring until the 2:30 mark in the first quarter when Tony Temple the running back ran for a 22-yard touchdown,we all go crazy, Tigers up 7-0. One of my favorite part of the tigers games is when we yell MIZ and the other side of the stadium yells ZOU, gives me the chills every time still to this day. Mizzou didn’t score again till right before halftime when the Tigers drove all the way down the field and finished it off with a Tony Temple 4-yard touchdown run, halftime score 14-0 Tigers. It was kinda overwhelming when we went to go get some food at halftime there was so many other tiger fans there, felt like millions of people there. After half time Big Mo (a big drum) was getting smacked and the black and gold ran out.

Narrative Essay About Basketball

1952 Words | 8 Pages

If we want to win, we need to just go get the rebound, or go dive on the floor for a loose ball. It does not matter how; all that matters is that we need to just go get the ball. It is when the ball is in the air that the game plan goes out the window, and whoever wants the rebound more is going to succeed. This is why I love basketball, because when the game becomes close and it comes down to effort, I know that no one is going to outwork me for the ball. We could have played badly and not gotten any calls from the referees all game, but it doesn’t matter, because if the game is close at the end, one’s internal drive to accomplish what they want could still propel them to achieving
