I love basketball so much I play everyday for two hours. I’ve always loved the Warriors. My idles are Steph Curry Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. Out of them three. My favorite player is Steph Curry. I’ve always loved how he changed the game. I really try to base my game off his game. I’m American that’s why I’ve always loved the Warriors. The reason why I play is because my dad plays pro. he’s very good and has made the all star team three times. Today I’m searching online for an autographed Steph Curry. I’m done waiting. I will find one! Mom I am going to look online for a autographed steph curry jersey.” I yelled. Ok Kevin.” My mom said. I get online to find it. I touch the screen to refresh and to see if they’re still here. No… noo… nooo I can’t believe it. All that search for nothing!
“What’s wrong Kevin,” my mom asked me.
“all the autographed steph curry jerseys are taken,” I scream.
“Calm down Kevin,” my mom told me.
“WY,” I scream at my mom.
Now my moms getting mad too. Uh oh, when my moms mad she EXPLODES. Get ready for a thunder storm of rage.
“Young man do not scream at me and sit there until you consider your actions,” she screamed. See you don’t want to make her mad.
I storm off in to my room and slam the door crying. Why is my mom always so unfair? I ask myself over and over. In the past my mom used to be nice. Now she’s always mean. I don’t know why though. I start quaking now. What if our dog died? But luckily that’s not true. He walks in now.
“Hey buddy I said He sits beside me. He’s a golden retriever/ pug.
Dogs are the best. They’re always there when you need them. He made me feel so much better that I come out of my room to eat and watch some tv. YES I scream the warriors are on. There against the Denver nuggets. The warriors are down by five with five minutes left. I decide to stop watching It. Instead I watch my dad. He plays for the Utah Jazz and he has a game I watch it. WOW I say he has 40 points. Utah is up by eight in the last three minutes there against the okc thunder. I go tell my mom and she’s also very happy.
“That’s great!” she said.
“I know that’s his career high. I said.
“Your father really improved” mom told me.
“Remember when he was a role player?” mom told me.
You heard that right. He was a role player on the Philadelphia 76ers. Now he could win M.V.P He’s really helping out Utah so they get allot of wins with the help of Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, and Mike Conley. They’re a real contender. Now thinking about all that I decide to go practice, three hours this time. I make two hundred shots, one hundred layups and one hundred shots. I go back in sweating like crazy. That’s my record for made shots in three hours. I go back in. I’m gonna watch the Charlotte Hornets. I think Lamelo Ball can become an all star in about two years. “Ohhhhhh,”I said they’re against the Milwaukee Bucks. I think this is kind of lopsided. While the Charlotte Hornets have a rising star, the bucks have one of the best players in the whole league. Then I notice something. It’s a ball. It says to Kevin from your dad. And its a golden state warriors ball! I’m so happy I’m doing cartwheels this is one of my most wanted things! I go tell my mom.
“Mom mom look what dad got me,” I
told her.
“That’s awesome Kevin,
I wonder where he got it from,” she told me.
I don’t know either, but I’m really happy,” I said.
Three minutes later. I here the final buzzer sound. I’m really happy for my dad 20 minutes later he walks in. I have so much to say. I’m so happy for you.” I tell him. Thanks so much.” My dad said grinning . Thanks for the ball.” I said. No problem.” He says. We keep talking and eventually I ask why he got me the ball.
He smiles. I just thought that since I thought I would get my career high today I would buy you it,” he said.
well you were correct. I say
“Well what are we waiting for? Let’s go practice!” I said!”
We rush outside. We love to play one on one. He regularly wins but in those three hours I learned allot. I. Try a quick crossover but it doesn’t work. So I try my signature move. I uro step him and I score.
Nice he said.”
“I’m also kind of sad.” I said to him.
“Why?” he asked.
“Because their are no autographed Steph Curry jerseys on sale.” I tell him.
This made me sad. I took a shot and miss. Clang clang clang off the rim. I’m so sad. I slump inside looking down at the floor with tears in my eyes. I guess i’ll never get one I tell my self. my mom saw me slumping. She asked what’s wrong? I have to talk about it with my mom. I tell her the hole story.
“I see.” She told me.
“I understand your frustration.” She whispered
“But try to not let it affect you.” She whispered again.
“Ok” I said.
For the rest of the day I don’t even think about it. I act like a normal kid. I’m still aching on the inside though. At dinner my dad noticed me.
“why so sad.” He asks.
I have no response.
“Son.” He says.
if you want I’ll get vip tickets to the warriors game on Saturday.”
As soon as he says it I’m going insane.
Thank you so much!” I said in complete happiness.
No problem.” He said.
I’m feeling great this is the best day ever. We still need to wait a day but I’m fine with it. I ask to practice with my dad. We go outside he throws me a quick pass. I try to catch it but it hits me right in the face! Owwwwwwwww I cry! My eye starts swelling rapidly. My dad picks me up instantly.
You’ll be ok.” He said over over and over.
You sure?” I asked threw teary eyes.
Yes, now go rest.” He said.
He sets me down and I keep feeling the sharp pain on my eye. the next thing I know I’m at the hospital getting my eye checked. My dads right next to me looking anxious.
Will he be all right?” He asked the doctor.
Yes. but he needs to take it easy for a little.” The doctor said.
Ok. Can I take him home?” He asked.
Yes.” The doctors said.
Right after that I’m at home on my bed. I cant stop thinking about the fact that I’ll have to wait a week to get my jersey autographed. Just then my dad walks in with a smile on his face.
Good news son!” He said.
What?” I ask.
We can go to the game!” He said.
I start going insane. I’m getting my jersey out the closet with a pen. Let’s go!” I scream. The next thing I know where at the Chase Center. Since we have vip tickets we sit right behind the bench. When Stephs on the bench, I ask him to autograph it and he does. I explode into happiness when we get home. I cant stop my self from running around. I finally got it!
THE END!!!
