Hello everyone,

I thought I posted a blogg entry yesterday during our layover in Stockholm but for some reason it did not post.  My apologies. 

I guess we have to take it back to Friday.  On Friday we made another tough road trip up to Sundsvall.  Sundsvall is always a tough place to play.  Number one because they are a solid team and second because the long road trip takes a toll on our bodies as our resting patterns are a little disturbed.  However, I have to say I am very proud of our effort up north as we pulled out another hard fought victory against one of the elite teams in the league. 

We started off the game kind of slow and spotted Sundsvall a 9 point lead early on.  I wasn't surprised because sometimes after a long trip it takes a little time to get going.  Coach called a good timeout and we regrouped and went on a pretty good run to take the lead.  The game went back and forth all the way until the end.  It set up a dramatic ending as coach called a timeout and drew up a play that created a good penetration opportunity for me.  I am so lucky that Chris was moving without the ball and was standing in the corner for the game winning shot because I had no where else to go.  Boras 75 Sundsvall 73.

I can feel that we are growing as a team everyday and gaining more confidence.  The growth from the first game to now is night and day.  Everyone contributes from the bench to the starters.  It may not seem like much but when I here Joakim or Simon encouraging me from the bench when I do something good or even bad, it gives me the extra confidence and push to keep it moving forward.  Chris'confidence may be the highest on the team.  He is stroking the three making 12 threes in the last two games.  Thats almost unheard of.  But good for us.  Sometimes I find myself not even going in for the rebound when he shoots the ball because I know its going in.  Or because I know I probably wouldn't get the rebound anyway because Ryan hogs them all. 

Back to practice today as we prepare to take on Jamtland Friday for our second home game of the season.  This will be a very good game.  They have some really good players that could get hot and possibly carry their team alone.  It's important that we go back to work today with a hard working attitude. 

Ï was reading today and ran over this quote.  "When you can do the common things of life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world."...George Washington Carver.  I would like to encourage everyone to be uncommon.  Take care
