Great performance, bad loss

Drove to the ghetto at 6:15 this morning in order to get there in time for our 8 AM AAU game.  Too bad the other team never showed.  (Pu$$ies...)

So we sat around for 90 minutes until our next game.  We dominated the entire contest.  With four minutes to play, we held a 9 point lead.  And then?!?

Yup, lost by 1 in overtime.

C R I P E S!

The good news is The Playmaker had his best all around game of his AAU career.  He started at point guard and played 27 of the 32 minutes.  He had 8 points (4-9 shooting), 4 assists, 2 steals, 2 rebounds and just 2 turnovers.  He guarded the other team's PG/best player for most of the game.  A N D both teams pressed the entire 32 minutes -- so he was exhausted.  In the land of Rick Pitino, The Playmaker came up with 6 deflections.

When the game was over and we shook hands, the opposing coach pulled Our Son to the side and told him he "played an unbelievable game...Unbelievable."
