Soph boys tonight. H 47, V45. Thought we might go OT, but H got a clean shot from 2 feet away with about 5 seconds left. The game was intense, and I felt on top of it the whole time. I felt like I finally had a good grasp of Tower, and I did a lot better keeping my eyes off the ball.
V is up by 4 to 6 for most of the 2nd half, and inexplicably decides to go into this funky stall offense. Sixty combined points in the 1st half turned into 30 combined points in the 2nd half. I had forgotten about how much the 4 corner offense can throw a wrench into 2 man mechanics. I found myself looking "through" A2 & B2 to watch the ball with A1 & B1 across court from me.
