Clippers vs. Mavericks

Last Wednesday, I went to a basketball game. The Los Angeles Clippers played against the Dallas Mavericks. When the first quarter ended the Clippers were winning 28-23. After the first half the Mavericks were winning 48-46. The Mavericks were winning 75-70 after the third quarter. The final score was Mavericks 106, Clippers 100. How many points did each team score in the third quarter? J.J Barea from the Mavericks scored 22 points, grabbed 2 rebounds, had 6 assists, and took away 2 steals. Blake Griffin from the Clippers scored 25 points, grabbed 17 rebounds, got 3 assists, and took away 3 steals.

NBA Allstar Jam

On February 19, I went to the NBA Allstar Jam. The NBA is the biggest basketball league in North America! At the NBA Allstar Jam there are a bunch of games and things to look at. Some of the things to look at are basketball games, the basketball hall of fame, video games, and stuff in the shop. Their are people who sign autographs there. I got an autograph from Wesley Johnson. They gave out a bunch of cards. The cards were my favorite card brand called Panini. Panini sells basketball, football and hockey cards. My dad and I saw the NBA D-league allstar game. The NBA D-league is for basketball players who are not good enough to play in the NBA.

Here are some pictures from the NBA D-league allstar game:

97th Rose Bowl: My 1st Rose Bowl

Yesterday, I went to the Rose Bowl with my dad. We went because my parents went to Wisconsin for college. Wisconsin was playing against TCU. Wisconsin is ranked the 5th best college football team in the USA. TCU is ranked the 3rd best college football team. At the beginning, people from the Navy flew down the coin for the coin toss and the game ball. TCU won the coin toss and selected to defend so Wisconsin got the ball first. Then the 97th Rose Bowl game began. After the 1st quarter, TCU was winning 14-10. At the end of the 1st half, TCU was winning 14-13. At the end of the 3rd quarter, TCU was winning 21-13. TCU won 21-19. Here are three ways Wisconsin could of won. The kicker could of made a field goal in the middle of the game. They could of made the 2-point conversion with 2 minutes left and won in overtime. Special teams could of recovered the onside kick and scored a touchdown or made a field goal. Some of Wisconsin's players were Tolzien, Ball, Clay, White and Toon. Some of TCU's players were Dalton and Curley. Here are some pictures from the Rose Bowl.

Lakers vs. Warriors

On November 21, I went to a Lakers game. They were playing against the Golden State Warriors. We had special parking, but it still took a long time to get there because they were just ending the MTV music awards and the L.A auto show was starting near the Staples Center. My dad got us great seats because he got them from the company he works for. At the game, we saw my dad's friend Albert. Albert sat right next to us with his friend. At the end of the first quarter, the score was something like 30-17 Lakers. After the second quarter, it was about 60-30 Lakers. When the third quarter was over, it was around 80-55. At the end of the game, the Lakers won by about 30 points. In my opinion, a reason the Warriors lost was because they were fooling around before the game. I think another reason was because David Lee was hurt. The Lakers got over 100 points so I got 2 free tacos from Jack in the Box and my dad got two free tacos from Jack in the Box. It was also Chick Hearn day so we each got our very own Chick Hearn paperweights! Here is a picture of me at the Lakers game:
