Let's see. The time now's 2.34 am, i'm talking to chander online and he finished the match report for our Fairfield game only just, and i'm finally free, so time for a post here.
Guangyang game. Ravins and I would like to apologise to you guys for playing like you've never seen before, terribly. As captains we're supposed to lead by example, do the right things on court, but he didn't come ready to play, while i slept late late late the night before. Which is highly unacceptable, so yeah we apologised during debrief and it won't happen again.
Our communication was highly INevident throughout all 4 period of the game, and as you all saw in today's game against fairfield, communication really helps. Like i said as well, the spirit and morale after guangyang game was a rock bottom low, nobody wanted to say anything, it was quite an awful feeling, bet you guys all agree.
But today against Fairfield, everything changed. Even though we didn't completely wipe them out, absolute thrashing like our first two games, the feeling after the game sure was sweet. First time we've really overcome the odds together.
I just would like to cmmend everyone for keeping our cool, not getting frustrated, instead grabbing offensive rebounds, hitting shots, drawing fouls and fighting on even though the *ahem* weren't really doing a good job and especially in the first half, where the game was really very violent, from what i feel. From ravins getting butted in midair which is really very dangerous, to them pulling chander down, smacking weixuan all over, making jordaan so frustrated he almost did something naughty, making brandon SCREAM in pain and agony, from weihan getting fouled on his last basket but he got it in anyway, i think everyone did our part. The guys on the bench were cheering your hearts out, the guys on court delivered, never lost temper, pressed on even though each of us got whacked pretty badly, and yes, we overcame the *ahem*, the violence, the hot shooting of fairfield today.
I realise that after games during debrief it's more of a reflection of our bad points, so i think this place is an excellent area for praise and the positives of our games. Always room for the not-so-goods here, but after today's game i don't think anyone felt awful or anything.
SO, WE'RE INTO THE SECOND ROUND. FULL SQUAD.
RAFFLES IS 4-0 FOR THE SEASON SO FAR.
4/18 games played, let's never allow the championship game out of sight and focus.
3 GAMES TO SEMIS.
4 GAMES TO FINAL.
It's gonna be do or die EVERY GAME honeys.
