Banvit vs. Darussafaka

This will be a quick one, because it has been a long week for me and it is time for bed here in Bandirma, Turkey.  I started the week with a small groin muscle tear and was consequently, doing rehab work to get ready for today’s game.  Then I got sick yesterday, didn’t eat and ended up in the hospital on an IV (with my wife there on one as well! and the kids hanging out too).  But thankfully I was able to make it through the game today and help the team a bit, though they surely would have done fine without me.

Final score:  Banvit  108  Darussafaka  72.  It was never close really.  Our team played well and their team not so well at all.   I ended up with 9 points on  3 shots (all three-pointers naturally). It was a good game after such a long week.  And as always, it was very enjoyable to play some basketball!  I find myself enjoying it more and more nowadays.

Our next home game is Tuesday, but there is a limit on how many foreign players can play in the European games, so I may not play in that one.  Then we play at home next weekend against the first place team.  I am looking forward to that to say the least.

Checking out for now,
