It was a sunny
day in Northern Germany, so my Brother and me decided to go out and play some
Basketball. We've been a good 2vs2 Team since forever, since I got the skills
(micro) and he has the power (macro). So we went to a court nearby to look
for some opponents.
Map: A normal
basketball court. You should be able to get the image.
After shooting some, we found there would not be any opponents, but our pal,
DeMaktan, so we decided to play a 1vs1 and had DeMaktan to watch and shoot
pictures (observe and make screenshots).
Player Introduction:
RubiksCube:
6'6'', 198 lbs, he's known for his basketball skills.
He has got some serious jump-power and speed.
His dribblin' skills are above average for his height. He lacks strenght though,
and he likes to show off instead of makin the easy points.
GhostDawg:
6'6'', 215 lbs, he's known to have a lot of power and
aggression to use in a basketball game. He is
a good rebounder, which makes up for his lack of shooting skills. He's going
into this game with a injury in his knee, so he wont be able to make up with
Cube when it comes to jumping.
He's also known for fouls.
The
Rules: It will be played until one player reaches 8 points. A normal field
goal scores 1 point, while a 3-Point Shot will score 3 points. It is loosers
ball and if someone scores 8 while being ahead by only 1 point, the game will
end when one player can get 2 points ahead.
Confused? Me too.
The Game:
RubiksCube
wins the shootout and has the ball first. He starts
dribbling towards his bro, then fakes to go left, but instead goes up to shoot.
*Swish* 1 : 0
GhostDawg
gets the ball and immediately starts to post up against
his brother. He turns around with a hook, misses, but is able to grap the
board and score on the follow up.
1:1
Now RubiksCubes superior basketball
skills come into play and soon enough he leads 4:1. If he doesnt go sloppy
now, he will have the game in his bag. But as you read in the introduction,
Cube likes to show off, and starts
his next move with a fancy dribble.

GhostDawg
feels he is getting bullshitted by his brother and decides
he cant have that. So as Cube tries
to go for the hoop, his bro pushes him hard. Cube falls
to the ground, looking at his bro above him, who looks at him with a face
saying "Try to piss me off and you will die."

So
the game goes on and Dawgs physical
domination starts to pay off. Just as he starts to make fun of his bro, Cube
goes up for a layer, so Dawg jumps
for the big block. But Cube was
not planning on a layer. He put all his power into a two-handed jam and his
body pushes Dawg to the ground.

"Thats
it, we're quit." he mutters and the game goes on.
And
on it goes. Each brother uses his power to score on the other. The game is
a heat and sweat runs down both their faces.

Late
Game:
Its
7:6 in favor of RubiksCube. Both
Players are exhausted. (All bases mined out) GhostDawg
has the ball, dribbling outside the 3-Point line. He
has had a 3-Point shot before and if he will score now, it will be his game.
Anyways he seems not to be willing to risk it. If he misses, it will be an
easy board for Cube and the game
maybe lost.
Just
as he decides to risk it, Cube takes
a leap forward for the ball. Dawg is
in the air, but he looses the ball as Cube hits
it. A short fight for the ball starts, but Cube is
able to recover it.
FINAL
MOVE:
RubiksCube
does the thing he hates the most in the whole game of
basketball. He posts up against his brother. GhostDawg
pushes him back, not wanting him to gain a single inch.
Cube fakes left, spins to the
right and gets loose. He already is very close to the hoop, so he goes up
turns in midair and slams it in backwards.
8:6
