“GAME WINNER”

TOOK THE INBOUND PASS BUT FIRST I PIVOT TURN AND LOOK,

MAKING SURE THERE ISN’T A THIEF AROUND ME CAUSE QUICKLY THEY CAN COME STEAL THE BALL SCORE ON ME – THIS I KNOW FOR ALL GAME IT’S THE METHOD I TOOK,

YES I’M A CROOK ON THE COURT SHUTDOWN DEFENDER ‘CAUSE I’M NOT BLIND,

EVERY STEP MY OPPONENT WANTS OR NEEDS TO TAKE I ALREADY KNOW OF AND ENSURE THAT HE IS VIOLENTLY DENIED,

ALL IS CLEAR NOW AS I DRIBBLE UP THE COURT AT A STEADY PACE,

SEEING THE NERVOUSNESS PLASTERED ALL OVER MY DEFENDERS FACE,

HE DOESN’T KNOW IF I AM GOING LEFT, DOESN’T KNOW IF HE SHOULD PLAY ME RIGHT,

ALL THE WHILE IN MY MIND I AM RUNNING RIGHT AT HIM USING THE BALL AS MY KNIFE,

CUTTING LEFT TO RIGHT THEN BACK RIGHT TO LEFT,

HE SLIPS , AND LETS OUT A CALL FOR HELP BECAUSE HE LOST HIS STEP,

AT THIS POINT THERE ARE 4 SECONDS THAT REMAIN,

I COULD GO FOR THE TIE – BUT EVERYONE KNOWS I’M ABOUT WINNING THE ENTIRE GAME,

I RISE UP TO SHOOT FROM THE TOP OF THE KEY,

MEANWHILE THERE ARE TWO DEFENDERS DRAPED ALL OVER ME,

BALL IS ON MY FINGERTIPS – SPREAD OPEN COMPLETED BY THE SNAP OF MY WRIST,

BUZZER NOW SOUNDS AS I LAND ON THE GROUND FROM BEING FOULED AND THERE IS COMPLETE SILENCE,

NO WHISTLE AT ALL JUST THE SOUND FROM THE NET…..

SWISHHHHHHHHHH!!!

GAME.
