a metaphorical story (5)

-Peeeep!-

The whistle blows for a timeout, as the players jog over to the bench for a timeout.

'Alright guys listen up, we're down by one point and this is very possibly the last possession of the game! Adam is our best player, so we'll run this play through him!' - Coach says.

"Certainly coach!" replies Adam. "I'll cut through the defenders and do a layup!"

'A layup? No no, cmon man, a layup is weak and has no oomph. Do a slamdunk instead!'

" A slamdunk? nah, that's too risky. I've never done it before in a competitive match!"

'Seriously Adam, if you want the publicity and the OOOH of the crowd, you have to go for a slamdunk! Otherwise the crowd won't appreciate you!'

"Well... i've already practised my layup countless number of times. I guess i may try to go for a slamdunk if i have the chance"

-PEEEEP-
the game resumes. Adam's team executes a fine play which gets Adam the open lane to go for the basket. He jumps in the air...
and opts for the layup, as he didn't jump as high as he should. The ball swooshes through the hoop.

And the crowd went wild! now Adam's team was one point ahead! They chanted Adam's name.

Now, the clock read 24 seconds. That was an entire possession left for the other team to score.
Who will win the match?

i love you darling =)

~~The End~~
