Casey at the Bat

One time when I was in 5th Grade I was playing a basketball game and my team was losing.  It was in the 4th quarter with 1 minute left and we were down by 4 points.  We called timeout to work out a play.  The play was to go to Coleman, another guy on my team.  So we inbounded it and worked it around the perimeter and found Coleman just inside the 3-point line and he made it!  We pulled the game within 2 points and our coach called timeout again.  Now with 30 seconds left the other team brought the ball down the court and my team played great defense and stopped them.  So our coach took our final timeout.  The play was to get the ball to me.  So we inbounded it and I was on the wing.  Coleman brought it down court and passed to me with 5 seconds left.  This shot was to tie the game.  So I shot it.  But I missed.  Before the shot I felt a lot of pressure because the game was on my shoulders.  I felt really bad that I didn't make it.
