THE FIRST TRIPLE DOUBLE IN MY LIFE

by **point-guard** on Fri May 13, 2005 10:15 pm

watching jkidd,iverson does it,it was a pleasurable sight.it gets me on the feet,and start to applaud to them for giving their fullest.but i would have never imagine myself doing that,and somehow..i just did.

it was a friendly game between us and a aboved averaged school team.their star player was number 6(well thats what i call him) and he was late for the first 5 minutes of the first quarter...we got off an 13-5 run and leaded the first quarter with a remarkable margin..i scored 7 pts,making every field goal..and missed 3 free throws and got 3 steals:doh:

during the second quarter,the opponent used a full court press..blocking every player on the team...no one had space to run.so i did a spin move and caught my defender off guard..i ran for a the fast break..and got my 2 points..i drived in for a couple of possesions,and got fouled many times..thus helping me to get 14 points(i dont remember the exact number,but its roughly there).the star player of the other team eventually got sub in..and i was told by the coach to play box 1 on him (box 1-meaning the player with the best defensive ability to man mark the opponents team star player,and the rest of the team mate stand in such a way like a square).i held him off to 0 points,by stealing away the balls that are passed to him,all the way till the half time,letting me have 6 steals in total

at the third quarter...i was getting tired because of doing a man mark on the star player..so i decided not to score..i drived in,and pass out.jumped shot,and pass.i got like 7 assist in a quarter.and i was sub out because i was too tired.the team then had a sudden break down,letting the lead slipping more and more away.the centre and PF of the opponent team grabbed alot of offensive rebounds,and because our boxing out were too lousy,they scored many open shots under the basket.the star player of the opponent team,still man marked by our team members(another guy that can run really fast and have lotsa stamina..he is my 1 2 partner),managed to score 4 points only.

during the fourth quarter,the game was very intense,they put on a 1-2-1-1 defence,and tries to steal our ball.the stole the ball many times,as i wasnt in the game,and made quite a number of basket,till they lead by 9.i was then subbed in again.and played a 3-2 defence.i stole the point guard's ball 2 times,and intercepted twice,thus i got my 10 steals(well he was an newbie and unexperienced PG*he was smaller size than me..MUAHHAHA*).the opponent was very tired,so we took advantages of that.we brought the ball upcourt faster and faster,and their defence were all in a messed.when they tries to double team me,i pass it to the C for many open shots.i also made assist to the guards,and they shot many clutch 3's.i got like 15 assist.the coach then told them to play the zone.as i was a bigger guard,i drive in..and made 2 foul in,both hitting the free throw.i acquired 20 pts,15 ast,10stls at the end of the game.well rbds...i got quite many..approximately 5.in the end we won by 4 pts

today..has to be one of the best day in my life..and i m here to share it..thankx for reading guys!!!i never imagined doing that..i m so happy..omfg

I like to read such tings, i'm happy for you.
I don't know if i have ever did it because here in belgium you
can only tell how many points you scored

. That realy sucks!
But as a point guard i would like know how many assists and steals i have.

in 48min timed games i pretty much average a triple dbl.....not too hard, if you've got players that know your game then it's easy to rack up assists.

Nice job I guess. I don't know if I've ever got a triple double because I really don't count alot of my stats during the game because I be so into the game and can't really remember. If I try to get one though, I probably could.
