About This Episode

Imagine this: instead of hoops, he used old peach baskets hanging way up high on a balcony! And guess what? The very first game ended with only ONE point! That's right, 1-0! Why so low? Were the players just learning? You won't believe what they had to do when someone scored—they needed a ladder to get the ball out!
