BAD DAY.

Kinda started evening bball and sprained my ankle just like minutes into it. Crap. Felt guilty coz I didn't took the responsibility into looking after my own body. Every little crap like not fully tightening my shoes, not properly landing, etc. Don't know, somewhat I'm started to get engross with what I'm going to do everytime I took off. Somewhat, things just come naturally, as if I've already given a thought about doing it even before the execution. Sucks...too bad my body was tilted a bit more and landed badly on my left foot...and I blew my ankle. Sucky feeling.

Kinda blew my top just now over the game. Was pissed off at lotsa things.

1. Pissed off that the opponent were cocky that they luckily lost the last game by 1 pt and I would have owned them in the low post if not for my ankle.

2. Pissed off at Boon bro coz despite me telling him how the game can be played to maximise teamwork and that he's bad habits, he still displayed them full out during the court and disrupted the whole gameplay.

3. Pissed off at Jun and Boon bro coz they could contained their own temper just because that the opponent were guai lan and talking trash. Isn't losing temper just falling into their trick? The best way to shut them up is to own them in the game.

4. Not very pissed off at this but just kinda something to take note of. Somewhat due to the bad teamwork, it makes it harder to pass to an open man and in the end, soloing against 1-2 opponent to get the ball in (and more often not miss) waste valuable energy. In the end, players "conserved" their energy for offense and slacken on the defense. I don't know whether competing with the opponent on scoring capabilities is the correct choice, considering that the batt life of each player is low. Shouldn't we play hard on the def and the play slow on the offensive so as to recover back faster?

Damn. Don't even know whether I should be so frank in the first place. At least at that point of time, I did what I think MJ would did, except that he would tell his teammate face off during the game and then own the opposing team harder. Didn't want to upset the mood during the game. Hmm...guess now, the priority is to rest my ankle and get back fast before the game on next friday. =/

Guess it time for some mental rehearsalling, meditating and some planning for the gameplays and team combination for next fri. Never fail to plan. Only plan to win.
