Meeting the Bully - Part II

Sunday, May 20th, 2007

Remember my post Bullies Never Learn? It was about these two guys who rudely took over the basketball court as I was shooting around…not even asking if they can play one-on-one. Sort of just kicked me out of the court. Well, I saw one of those guys again tonight and I was pumped up to kick his arse on the court. I stretched extra long to make sure I wouldn’t get hurt and my blood was pumping a million miles a minute. I wanted to beat this guy so bad.

We played two-on-two and as luck would have it we were on opposing teams. He was covering me too so I had to make sure that I went Kobe Bryant on him. The game started off well. I hit a jump shot…and then proceeded to blow by him three times to lay it up and in. On defense, I went Yao Ming on him and swatted the ball as he tried to score on me. Roar!! Now, I’m only 5 ft 8 inches tall, so it’s quite a feat for me to block a shot. But yep, I swatted that thing to freakin’ China. I think he got so frustrated that he stopped covering me and asked his teammate to switch and guard me instead.

Unfortunately, that’s when it started to go downhill. I couldn’t score on the other dude and he kept hitting 3 pointers. We ended up losing the first game by two points and the second game by five points. I’ll get him next time.
