Slow week so far... Qiryat Ata this Sunday

This week has been going very slow, and probably for a couple different reasons.  First off, the weather is finally starting to cool down, which I can't really complain about because it did take until the first week of December for that to happen!  Secondly, we played on Saturday last week, and then don't play again 'til Sunday this week, so there is one extra day of practice in there that we usually don't have, and at this point in the season those practices add up.  I think guys are getting a little fatigued right now (myself included) because it has been a grind to this point, and we haven't really had any extended time off yet, but this is the exact time when we need to get tough because these next two games are going to be huge for us.  We have a legitimate chance of going into the break with a 6-2 record, which would be exactly where we want to be.  

This weekend we play one of the lower tiered teams in the league called Qiryat Ata.  We have a huge advantage going into this game because it will be relatively a home game for us.  We have been practicing in their gym for the past two weeks because something is going on at our gym, and we finish this stretch out to the break on a three game road trip.  So basically we are playing a road game, that isn't really a road game.  

Besides basketball, there really isn't that much going on right now over here.  The novelty of being in a new place has started to wear off, and people aren't doing as much as they used to in terms of going out, and everything else.  It isn't a problem though, as I never have trouble keeping myself busy at the apartment.   That's all for now, I will give a brief pre-game breakdown either tomorrow or Saturday.   Hope everyone is having a great week, and I'll be back soon.  Later.
