These are three reasons to go to the NBA. Practice, practice, practice! If you have a basketball hoop at home, play basketball every day. One way that you can get better at basketball, is to go to the gym a few times a week do some drills and work on your ball handles. Also, run everyday to be in good shape! Playing with people who are better than you will make you better. Also in a game, do not get easily discouraged. You can always make up for a disappointing game in the next. Be sure to practice shooting everywhere on the court meaning your close range, mid range and

It’s Jackie, and she sounds upset.” As I came downstairs to pick up the phone, I was not happy. I was tired and had looked forward to a nice and quiet evening at home, not another stupid adventure with Jackie.…

    The Nba is fighting for a 2 year rule for college players who are just coming from high school going to college and they are able to one year and enter the draft .The students education should make the difference than any sport .Another problem would be the young athletes are interviewed by the media as a young athlete and the whole world is watching them. Have you ever noticed that the young players who do one year in college ,and make it to the pros end up with not a good education.If the young players sustain a injury or even worse wouldn't be able to play again they wouldn't have a degree or a job .A Lot of pro scouts they look for strong ,and mental demands ,and most of the players out of high school players aren't ready .That was a few…

    A memory from my athletics that will stick with me forever was the last time I was able to lace up and play basketball on our home court. We played a long time rival, Aquin. The game was down to the wire and I was able to tie the game with 24 seconds left. Then we got the ball back and Ellie was fouled with about a second left, which if anyone on our team were to be put on the line, I would choose her. She went up and swooshed the first shot! Then, since Aquin wouldn't be able to get the rebound, make it down the court, and shoot with the time left, coach told her to miss the second shot. Ellie then winded up and chucked the ball right off the backboard so they ended up getting the ball out of bounds anyway. We blocked the throw in, and I ran…

    One extremely important activity outside of the classroom that has helped me grow as an individual is Church League basketball at my local YMCA. From the outside looking in this league seems to be a form of glorified pick-up basketball with referees and a scoreboard but there is so much more to it. Almost half way through my junior year my father convinced me to try out for the varsity basketball team at school in November to which I hesitated at first but later gave in and tried out only to be cut. At first I was upset because I had never been cut from a team and I was unsure of how to handle it and what to do with my free time. This prompted me to reach out to God and ask him for a sense of direction and purpose in this time of my life to which He responded with a friend inviting me to Church League basketball. Once I experienced a few scrimmages and practices I decided to commit to playing Church League and coming to all of the…
