Today, a great day for me you could say.
My high school team just got pwned by a professional basketball team. We got owned so badly. The score was like 84-39 for the Montreal Royals (not an NBA team). All i could say was, we put on a horrible show. We only played about 25 minutes. Thats how the long the period was.
Holy crap, man...
Your high school team played against a professional team? Please tell me it was just some fundraiser, for new uniforms or something! Because if it wasn't... Well, what were the organizers thinking?
The Montreal Royals are a real professional basketball team that plays in the American Basketball Association (ABA). For more info on them: Here and Their website
As far as i know, it was for a fund raiser called "Hoops For Hearts" (something like that). I teacher in my school had a baby and he had a heart defect and the hospital saved him and thats the reason i think we had them play in my school.
One of the funniest parts was when one of my teachers who was playing as referee tripped one of the montreal royal players. Trust me, i was the first person to tell him how good of a job he is a reffing in my sarcastic voice.
The Montreal Royals only brought 5 players to compete against us and we had are 20 players there against them.
My friend who was there wouldn't stop shouting "I'M YOUR NUMBER ONE FAN!!!!!!". Trust me, he got annoying and everybody noticed his loud shouting.
But don't worry about being beat by pros; it would happen to any high-school team. These pros went through their high-school years and excelled in basketball, then played through their college years and stood above the crowd (in more ways than one) enough that a professional team would take an economic chance on them.
A lot of the Montreal Royal players weren't tall at all. My school had about like 50 shots on the net and only like 13 of them went in. The Montreal royals had like 75 shots on net and like they only missed 9 or more. They started the game by dekeing us and at one point i think this guy from the Montreal Royals was getting angry at one of our players, it looked like they were heading for a fight but it then turned out that the royals player just wanted to deke my schools player, badly. Which he failed at doing at then our team scored.
Exciting day, i knew my team was going to lose, it's just, i didn't expect are team to score 39 points, i expected less.
