Whye Nam matches

finally men's open had started..
it started yesterday night when we vs the vervex team..
we won by 5 pts..
we should have played the last quarter easily if not for the slack defence we had in the 3rd..
we took the 17 pt lead for granted and almost letting them to make a comeback..

den after the match, i called prasad to ask him abt the final of the kovan cup, lost by 6 pts..
i tot we ( kaixuan ) can win.. but it's alright now.. i think i can make a trip down for the game 3..
muz win the medal!

den today whye nam played a team name meridian rent a car.. haha.. abit funny, but heard from demin tat's the sponsor name.. haha!
we play hard for the first quarter.. alot of our players did not actually come.. we ended up playing them with 7 players...
players rotation is veri fast.. i do not have enough breath to catch up, maybe because i slept at 7am in the morning.. no energy no everything..
and this is the second match i played without my knee wrap.. haha.. it feel normal when i did not think of it.. hope i can carry on playing without it.. it's a good thing for me =)

luckily we got the right people to come down, the scorers, the rebounders.. was veri impressed with our centers.. although they are 16 or 18.. they are really skilful at their age..
at the end of the match, we found ourselves winning the opposite with a comfortable 20 pt margin.. looks like i can go down to kovan to play the final game with kaixuan.. =)
hoping to win the medal.. and to play the last match with kaixuan..

am veri tired now.. and tmr got to wake up to go sch again.. darn!
nite...

Overcoming the barrier

The playing of basketball had changed so much after recovering from this injury..
u need to be quicker, stronger, and much more aggressive to stay in the game..
this is how a basketball should be played.. and i know it..

last night i got a friendly against republic poly again ( playing them for the 6 or 7 times already this yr )
there was this thing tat keep bothering me throughout the game
whenever i scored a basket, i had to re-adjust my knee wrap which i had been using ever since returning to basketball after the injury..
is it the vast movement making it came loose or is it time to change a new one.. or isit time to stop using it?

i remember the doctor telling me not to rely on those knee guards or knee brace..
my coach oso told me to overcome this barrier.. he does not see those confidence i got in the past..

i wanted to play without the knee wrap, but i couldnt bring myself to do it as i scared i might re injure again.. my knee is strong now and tests had proven it.. but i still feel kinda scared to play without one..

i muz really overcome this barrier to play without the knee wrap..
pls pardon me if i dun play well =/

=)

finally im ready to blog..
past few weeks been busy with my FYP..
i'm so bored in sch.. merely juz wasting time in sch from 9 to 5.. although the last few days i came late..
change of supervisor.. =)
a supervisor who knows wat she want from our project group..
better than the previous one who dunno wat he wan from us.. so pathetic..
luckily i passed all my modules and next sem will be my last sem.. =)
graduating soon.. den army le.. =/

As for basketball, this coming week will be the start of the men's open
will be playing for whye nam.. few of the yishun and republic poly players..
getting to know them better after a few friendlies
whye nam is not a veri strong team, but will be playing hard to go next round and gain experiences playing with older players..

next week will be the start of the inter-constituency too..
will play either simei or panjang..
after playing with a few csc teams.. i suddenly think tat cckcc is not as strong as i think.. not much chemistry within the squad and oso a part time coach? a coach who dun coach us every matches.. dunno how we can play far like this.. tat is one of the reasons why i went over to nanyang csc..

congrat on team Kaixuan...!
made it to the final.. hope tat they can beat the payer lebar team to win the cup... =)
wont be there for the finals, but will be waiting for good news.. believe we can do it.. =)

NANYANG CSC vs BOONLAY CSC

last night i went for the match against boon lay csc..
i came late and arrived only in the 2nd quarter and sad to see my team was trailing by so much..
nanyang csc only managed 9pts while boonlay got 20 plus in the first quarter..
at first i tot it wont be a one sided match.. but it is when we found troubles scoring..

in the end we lost by quite alot. i saw dejected faces around after the match..
we lost alot because of our lousy defences, maybe one more thing is tat the coach is not around..
whereby boonlay is much more organised in both offense and defense..

it's ok tat we los, we know where are we, train hard now.. although i wont be joining nanyang csc for this yr intercon, really hope tat your will rain hard and well and play as far as possible.. i will be playing for cckcsc for my last yr here.. work hard together.. =)

next for the wai wei, will be joining whye nam.. been 2 yrs plus since returning there..
i did not even go for the trainings and yet my fren told me tat the coach reserved a spot for me.. was thankful to him, cos i tot i wouldn't be in the team..
tmr will be playing against cagers for a friendly at unity sec sch.. muz go for the friendly..

yesterday after the match, guan fu ask me why i did not pick up his call, he was finding to play for his team in wai wei.. i do not know how to ans man.. haha.. and i juz said i was busy tat time not realising. and i told him i went back whye nam..

hopefully everything will go well for the next few months.. cos there will be tournaments and soon the release of my exam results...

still need to go back to sch for my holidays.. argh.. find nothing to do there except cs and gym.. darn!
