A split basketball weekend...

The Playmaker went 1-1 last weekend in basketball.  His rec team won, 23-19.  He scored 9 points and had 4 assists.  His best play was a three point play at the buzzer to end the second quarter,  He got the defensive rebound and dribbled the length of the court.  He knew he had a bigger defender hot on his heels.  He came to a jump stop about five feet from the hoop, then did a shot fake -- which sent the Big Man flying in the air in a feeble attempt to block his shot.  The Playmaker then went up with the shot, absorbed the foul and made the hoop.  With no time on the clock, the refs made the other 9 players leave the court.  The Playmaker then sank the free throw for the old school 3-point play.  The next day his Metro team sank to 0-3 in league play (though they are 3-3 in tournament play).  He had zero points (0-2 on shooting), but had three assists.  (In part due to the fact that he is the ONLY ONE WHO LOOKS TO PASS!!!    Can you say C-O-A-C-H-I-N-G?!?!?!?!?!?!?  As in his team is suffering from a LACK of coaching,  Good gawd, man!)
