I Cant Miss - Chapter 138 Navy Vs Army 2

In the first two quarters, we were losing badly as the point guard from the Navy team was running around in circles scoring on us. Due to Paige being a female, she couldn’t play much defense on him and had to get help from the other guys to play defense. With that, we weren’t losing too badly.

I asked Coach Andre when the bench was going to get in the game, and he told me that the bench would go in the fourth quarter and will play for the rest of the fourth quarter. I nodded and understood. I told him that’s a great idea. I loved to play in the last quarter, anyways.

Coach Andre smirked and said, “if you genuinely can’t miss, then we should have this game in the bag, which should surprise the Navy Team since they usually beat us. They always slither by a few points when they beat us. I asked Coach Andre how many games our team won last year, and he told me they won zero.

I was beyond surprised as he also shook his head and said “that was our worst year ever, Paige had gotten injured and Khalid was also sick, so we had two of our members that normally scored the most in games out of the game. Aldrich picked up his game during that time and was scoring more, but not enough”.

I was still beyond shocked as I thought man I don’t know a single team that could go a whole season without winning a single game so now I understood why the Navy Team came in all cocky, at this point they were winning by 15 points and they thought that they had this in the bag as they started celebrating.

After looking at the Navy celebrating as if they won, I got serious as I felt extremely vengeful. These guys have been whipping our team for years, and I felt like I owed it to the Ground Force to take revenge for all the ass whoopings they received.

The 4th quarter started, and the bench came in, we were on defense so as soon as the Navy’s point guard Ron brought it down, I did time freeze, stole the ball and drove down the lane. Everybody was surprised by this as they chased after me instead of stopping and shooting; I went in and dunked it as hung on the rim from a monstrous dunk.

The onlookers from the army side immediately stood up, and they started cheering in the form of barking. It seemed like something had woken in them after they saw me dunking while looking down at the point guard and smirked. Ron said, “okay show-off come back down you’re still going to lose, you just got lucky.”

Ron brought down the ball again, and I did time freeze once again, stealing the ball. Ron, the Navy’s point guard, was shocked at this point; nobody had ever taken the ball from him two times in a row on a back-to-back play, so he looked at his hand, wondering if there was something wrong with it.

Ron didn’t even chase after me this time to play defense as he just stood there looking at his hand. I stopped at the three-point line and took the shot as now we were down by 10 points. Coach Andre had stars in his eyes while the starters on the bench were clapping their hands and barking like dogs.

Ron got the ball once again and brought the ball down, this time I decided not to do the time freeze; otherwise, it’ll be too hot if I kept stealing the ball from him. Ron looked at me and said, “you won’t get lucky this time,” he drove the ball in and decided to let him take it, but as soon as he was about to lay up Garett came out of nowhere and blocked the shot.

The ball rebounded straight to Sheila, who passed it to me as I ran down the lane. Their power forward was chasing me down as he was running side-to-side by me. I did the Steph Curry behind the back break as their PF ran past me and took the shot from the 3-point line like a rainbow as it took it’s time to get to the basket.

I put up my hand with the three signs and walked away as the ball went into the bucket, making a splash sound. Their power forward had tripped on his feet and had fallen to the ground when I made that move, so the whole gym had erupted in dog barks, while the Navy crowd was just quiet with their gloomy faces, but they weren’t worried because they were still winning by 7 points.

Little did they know that we had plenty of time for me to come back. Paige looked like an owl as she started to love me even more. She had heart signs in her eyes as her heartbeat rapidly. She made mental notes to herself that she must have my babies no matter what. If I knew what she thought, I would have coughed up blood in frustration.

Just like that, we were down by seven, Ron brought the ball down once again. I time froze Ron again and stole it from him, as I went in for another dunk. This time I threw it off the backboard, caught it, cocked my arm all the way back, and dunked it as hard as I could.

That move right there went viral the next day on the military website. My team was so hyped after seeing that dunk as now everybody believed in me. We were down by only five points now with only two minutes to go. The Navy team was starting to get nervous.

Ron was becoming a no-show as he kept losing the ball today. In a few plays, I decided to let Ron get a few points in, but we were still only down by five and I decided to close it in with one minute left. I had the ball in my hand; we were down by 5. I brought the ball down and spotted Blackpool running full speed down the lane.

I did a no-look pass to him as he caught it and dunked it. Blackpool looked at me and nodded. I nodded back and continued to play. I told Limiyou to stay down the court as I was about to cherry-pick for my first time. When Ron came down, I stole the ball and tossed it down to Limiyou, who caught the ball in the air and dunked it. At this point, it had become a dunking contest as we were now down by one point with 10 seconds left. Ron was scared at this point because he didn’t want to choke with such little time left.
