CAL Intermediate Gold Division, Kilauea gym
Maybe some of us think, well, we're the shortest team in every league. Maybe some people sitting there in the bleachers think, wow, this is a total mismatch. And it would be if we didn't play smart, physical, skilled basketball. Javan boxing out guys 2x his size. Micah bodying up on a guy 6 feet, 270 pounds. Felcris sealing off the weak side with box-outs. Colin turning deflections and outlet passes into the fastest drives in the league.
That was a good win, Thunder. They had two guys towering over us, and we kept battling. The lead was 19 points in the second half before we tired out a bit, began making some mental errors, but we did enough to beat one of the better teams in CAL.
Maybe we think we're lucky sometimes. I think we can win every championship in every league. Especially when we run and shoot the ball — we made 10 treys — and defend like that.
Lineup: Trinity, Chaz, Jayden, Jance, Jhevin, Walter, Micah, Colin, Javan, Felcris, Josh DJ.
