We kinda had a slow night on Monday (11/10). For some odd reason, we only had 8 players come out but we balled hard for 2 hours! Every Monday night from 9-11pm, players know they gotta bring their "GAME" or else they'll get embarrassed. Just ask... I'll stop right there. You guys know who you are.
Ginebra's Macky Escolona & JR Aquino, former CSB standout Lou Abad, Fil-Am guard Kevyn White, BK streetballer/rapper Mike Swift (Swizzle grew up ballin' in Coney Island with Starbury, Sebastian Telfair, & other BK ballers), JR's boy Alex, Ravi Chulani the gym rat, & yours truly made up this week's warriors. We played a half court 4-on-4 best of 7 series. With bragging rights on the table, the series stretched to a grueling 7 games. We played first to 10 by 1's so you know each possession was big. Macky, Ravi, Alex, & Swift made up one team and it was Me, Lou, Kev, & JR on the other side.
Macky was on fire all night knocking down jumpers & taking it to the rim hard. Ravi called himself James Yap for the night & he did play like King James by drilling j's & finishing down low. Down 3 games to 2, my balanced squad found a way to squeak out a game 6 win & with momentum going our way, we took game 7 & this week's right to talk smack.
Since it was the eve of my 30th birthday, i challenged myself to do something fun - run a 17 in less than a minute (running sideline to sideline 17 times). With Kevyn White as the official timer & the rest of the warriors looking on during this momentous occasion, i finished in 59 seconds. Mind you i haven't done a 17 in a while. Happy Birthday to me!
Til next Monday! Hit me up if you got game & want to come ball at MNH. SERIOUS PLAYERS ONLY!
