This was the second game of the Nationals, and we played well. The objective for us this game was to tire our opponents, so as to get easy points in the second half. However, in the first half, we were allowing the opponents to get many offensive rebounds and fast breaks (This due to our poor help defense). On the other hand, we were not getting many fast breaks or offensive rebounds.
Things changed in the second half. Our opponents started to become exhausted, and did not play as good a defense as the first half. We managed to grab a couple of offensive rebounds and fast break, and also stopped their star player from scoring as much. Nevertheless, we were exhausted ourselves, and took quite a few low percentage shots.
The next game against North Vista is a do or die match; either we win them and proceed to the second round, or lose by more than 1 points and be eliminated from the competition. Hence, we have to play even harder than we did today, and get closer to our goal of the top 4.
