    [​IMG] I play in a basketball league. I am a point guard there. I average about 15+ points a game. We just started our season. We are 1-0 so far and hope to be 10-0. Today we played the hardest team. And some how we won the game 60-58. I scored 19 points. I scored 9 straight points in the first quarter. It was pretty kool because the crowd was going crazy. In the fourth quarter..It was all tied 58-58 with 30 seconds left. We decided to hold the ball out till the final seconds and go for the last shot. I held the ball near the three point line till 7 seconds. My teammate gave me a pick. I ran inside and did a 7 foot runner. It went in off the glass with 3.2 seconds remaining. We won the game later on. This was my best game.

    Awesome man.

    I have a question though. If you have played one game, and you scored 19 points, wouldn't that make your season average 19 PPG instead of 15 PPG?

    I played in the same league...

    My team was alrite.. the 2nd best player and 3rd best scorer had problems though.. they couldn't show up because they had trouble gettin a ride to the court so they missed half of the games.

    I ended up with 29.5 PPG & .. I dont know the rebounds for sure because the guy hadnt updated the site, I had 9.5 RPG and the last game I got 14. So I'm guessing around 10.2 or something.

    29.5ppg, 10.somethingRPG, and assists .. i wasn't in the leaders unfortunately, one of my weaknesses.

    2nd in scoring, 1st in rebounds. They only took stats of the scoring, rebounds, assists..

    League kinda blowed this year cuz my teammates couldn't make it to the games, but im joining next year again!

    I dont want to show Pakman. I am the small Pakistani one. Yeah I am skinny and short, but that was about 6 months ago. Now I have put on around 20 pounds and I am 3-4 inches taller.

    Man, my teams been pissing me off lately. We always do crappy the first 5-8 minutes of the game and end up being down by 12 at the half. Then all of a sudden we start playing good in the second half, and we end up catching up. But most of the time we lose by 1 anyways.

    None of the teams I'm on are ever successful. The last team I was on, the opposite happened. The team would do crazy good the first half and end up blowing the lead in the second.
