Defense, as you mentioned, was an after-thought. You went for the steal and hoped the other team missed their shot if you didn't get the steal so you could go back on offense. Scores over 100 points for each team were not that uncommon in games. We played a team once where over 70 of their points came from beyond the three-point range. Best 40 minute workout you can ever have! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
