HUISMAN DROPS A DIME, TEAM PICKS UP #2
November 13, 2005
Glenwood, IA - At 6'2" and 245 lbs., the last thing you expect to see out of Justin Huisman is something of grace. However, on Sunday night Huisman had his full arsenal of moves on display, capping off the highlight reel with a behind the back pass assist.
The play occurred in the 4th quarter of Team Old Balls second win of the season, 70-29 over the now 0-2 Hoseheads of the G.V.F.D.. Huisman took the outlet pass and dribbled between 2 defenders. As the ball bounced a bit higher than planned, Huisman spun and whipped the ball around his back not only to avoid a traveling call, but to hit a streaking player under the basket on a fast break.
"I was really starting to trip and fall.", commented Huisman on his spectacular play. "After my spin move, I got dizzy and was going to trip over my own feet. Luckily as I put my hand out to brace for the fall, I hit the ball in the direction of one of my teammates. Evidently it looked like I meant to do it. I mean...I did mean to do it...I got skills!"
The blowout was also the debut of Charles Smith who was inactive for game one due to lack of location management. Smith was ready to play, getting the start, and sporting some fancy neon-blue kicks.
"I signed a deal with Reebok in the pre-season.", said Smith, "The first edition of my shoes, called the 'Two-Step Pivot' were in blue, because that's how teams feel after playing us."
The paper asked Smith to refrain from making any more analogies for the rest of the interview.
For the second straight game, Jim Hanson was a one-man wrecking crew. This time he did the job on defense, notching a league record 73 steals in one game.
"The guy was all over the court tonight.", said Clay Lincoln who managed 26 steals himself. "The only bad thing is that 27 of Hanson's steals were from our team. Every time I tried to bring the ball up the court he'd take it from me and start a fast break. I should've tripped him."
"I'm really fast and can jump really high!", exclaimed Hanson. It was later reported that someone informed him he graduated High School in the late 80's. Arthritis immediately set in on all of Hanson's joints. He is questionable for next weeks game.
Bob Mills, the big center for team Old Balls also contributed to the game. He recorded his first triple double of the season with 14 points, 11 rebounds and 10 gallons of sweat perspirated. Mills also was responsible for many of the cheers for the evening. The cheers were from his wife and 3 children in attendace at the game.
Bobby, the eldest of the Mills children, commented, "My dad is so cool. He's really tall and strong...I bet he could beat up your dad."
Carter, the middle child, commented, "I like that Beardmore guy. He's as old as my dad and I can beat him up. Plus when I run by him and call him a sissy...he flicks sweat on me. He's a funny little guy."
Josah, the youngest and only daughter of Mills shyly said, "We're gonna go get ice cream now."
Mills' wife Heather, was thrilled, "I can't believe it. I didn't know he could jump without breaking something. It was kinda hot seeing him out there like that.....grrrr..."
One of the best potential plays of the evening occurred two times as Chad Beardmore attempted to throw Matt Portrey an alley-oop pass from the top of the key. Beardmore saw Portrey on a back-cut and tossed the ball towards the rim, where Portrey caught it in flight. However he was under the basket, which does not yeild a high percentage shot.
"On the second 'oop I realized that there was no point, because Matt can't dunk it anyway.", said Beardmore. "Maybe next time I'll throw an 'oop to the three point line since Matt shoots better from out there anyway."
Portrey disputed the fact that he 'has no ups', "I can dunk it. I just don't think those rims are regulation or something. I've dunked there before...but nobody was around to see it, but I swear I did." He also went on to comment that Beardmore's game appeared 'sloppy' and his jumper was 'broke' anyway.
Both players have press conferences scheduled with their agents on Monday afternoon. It is expected that both will ask to be traded to other teams so they don't have to play together any longer.
