Why Basketball Is Important

Basketball is the sport I been playing since I was twelve, I love this sport because you can go anywhere in the world and you will see a basketball hoop anywhere. It does not matter by the court length and the court width, what really matter was a basket for you to shoot on. At an early age I realize basketball is important with these three things, being a good dribble, knowing the smartest pass or play, and for you to be able to shoot the ball; if you didn’t have these three simple things in your repertoire, you were not considered a basketball player. My coach always told me “don’t ever pick up your dribble” the reasoning was the defender can put so much pressure on you when you pick it up the ball than dribbling it. I always knew how to dribble the ball so the defender never wanted to play up because he will get his ankles broken. When I got older my dribble had to become a sharp and fast dribbler so I can have different options on the court to score or to facilitate on the court.
I always had a plan to pass the first half the game and the second half I can do a combination of both just because I was going for a double- double every game. As I became more good with passing the ball at the right time to the right person I would get a little fancy and make the crowd go crazy. I never been the person to keep the ball to myself I always love to pass. Now that my brother sees me pass more he tells me to shoot more and I always tell him “I am an all-around player who wants to make my teammate better before I get mines” and he respected
