Banvit 125 Turk Telecom 87

Yes, that was the score last night believe it or not.  And Turk Telecom was in first place and coming off a Turkish Cup championship (the tournament we lost to them in last week).  But we were at home and in need of a win, so we were focused to say the least.

I am pretty sure that we had the lead the entire game.  You can tell that they were a bit tired, but at the same time, we played good basketball and ran away with things pretty quickly.  Stats for the game can be found by clicking here.   Also, that website is the best for keeping up with the league.  It also enables you to follow our games play by play if you wish.  In order to do that, you just go to the home page and click on the scoreboard on the top right (wait a few seconds if it doesn’t come up right away).  Then click on the right hand tab of the window that pops up and you will find the different games.  Erin (my wife) plans on using it when the games are away or not on television.

Our entire team played confident and well.  I also had my best game so far.  Ended up with 34 points on 12-20 shooting.  I didn’t shoot the ball great in the first half, but did so in the second half.  It was my kind of game, open style of play with the ball spreading around to everyone.  Those who know me know that I enjoy that basketball best.   As always, I was thankful to be able to play.
We now have ten games left to go this season and all of them are big, because we are in a playoff battle, probably battling for the last spot.  I am very hopeful that we can make it happen and praying accordingly!

Enjoying the game,
