My First Game
I see the basketball go swish
As the ball goes diving right through
I feel like I had shot a good shot
The ball was like a bird flying through the air
The buzzer beater goes ringing like a loud bell
The crowd and the team went crazy
Know it was the start of the 4th quarter
Me and my team was down by 4 points
Our goal was to pass, dribble, and shoot
Me and my team scored a few points
And we have tied the game 24-24
I wanted to win so I did the best I could do
I ran fast up and down the court like I was flash
There was only a few seconds left on the clock
Me and My team had to call a timeout
Our plan was to pass me the ball
The timeout is now over and the clock started ticking
They inbound the ball and give it to me
I was nervous at first when I was given the ball
Know there was only 5 seconds left on the clock
At this point I needed to shoot before the clock ran out
So my teammate set me a screen and I shot the ball
Next thing I realized was I missed my shot
My coach and teammates were upset that I missed
Now We are in Overtime
I sat on the bench for the rest of the quarter
I was upset and my coach was upset
This is what happened in my first game of Basketball
I really like how you identified something you care about and love
ReplyDeleteI like how you identified all the specific things about a basketball game. Good Job!
ReplyDeleteI liked how you gave everyone somewhat of a play by play of what your first experience of playing basketball was like and how it impacts you playing later on in life.
ReplyDeleteRicharddddddddddddd you did good projecting your voice due to the fact that you typically are quiet you went up there and wasnt nervous you took your time and did really good.
ReplyDeletethis was good, i liked how you told a story with all the details. you included that it doesn't always go as planned and you didn't lie about it and make it seem like you were better than anyone else.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you shared your first experience of your first basketball game. I can relate when taking the final shot and missing and being disappointed about that.
