I knew that Milpitas Ducks was a good team but I also thought that we were a decent team. Looking at the stat sheet tonight, well ... at least I can say that the Ducks kicked out butts big time!
The final score looked crazy (140 vs 48) but even crazier is the number of shots we actually took. We took a total of 80 shots and made only 18 of them (if you count 3pointers we were 0/5) That comes out to a 22.5% shooting average. Come on! I can blindfold the average pro player and they can shoot at that rate. I am not sure if it was the competition or if maybe our players had the flue or what but we were horrible tonight. Can you believe the other team took only 69 shots from the field (82 if you count 3s). If we were even close to out normal 50% we would have crushed them.
I shot a respectable 9/14 (64.3%) but the next closest % was Nestor at 25%. Do the math... that is a difference of almost 40% difference. I just can't believe it. I know I have tanked some games but to see so much of the team tank all in the same game is ... well... depressing.
Our coach is still struggling with "real life" issues so we are basically running under the guidance of the assistant coaches. I feel like I am on a ship without a rudder. Hopefully, the players we have can rally around each other somehow to pull outselves up a bit. We are currently in the middle of our league which is not too bad considering how bad we have been blown out at times. It can only get better.
