learn to play basketball

so far i can shoot (though i have to be REALLY close to the basket) and i can dribble kind of. sometimes i can even dribble and walk at the same time! cc also taught me how to dribble from side to side, but i am not very good at it yet. that is all i really know how to do so far. i think cc taught me a couple other things but i do not remember them right now. i need to make a commitment to actually practicing playing this stupid game and maybe i will actually be able to play with other people someday.

anyone want to buy me some basketball shoes?

la kid here, want to play but not good enough to really PLAY. lookin for a partner to learn the game with and possibly play. get at me

so i can beat my cousin

i love basketball

well i am a 17 yr ol tall guy but still never tried the game seriously.but now suddenly i feel interested and still am far away from playing the game the way its meant to be played.i cant get the flow of the game yet the coolness of the game it seems that i am being too rigid while playing with my friends at school,i gotta get to a court on my own soon.

I like u’r writting, man.

btw, I wanted to asked about the practice.

how many days a week do you practice ?

I can only practice 2 days a week, cause I got a lot of activity outside of basketball. do you think it’s enough to make me a better player ?

I’m in senior high school now. n I wanted to be a better player before I go to college.

n lastly, what is your practice menu n does practice or play some pickup game improve u’r play better ?

P.S. I’m 5-8 n I run the point. what about u ?
P.S.S. sorry for my bad english. I’m from Indonesia

I wanna learn how to play soooo bad… I don’t wanna fake it on the court anymore… Lol.

I’ve done this. I played Women’s J.V bsketball. It really teaches you different kinds of plays as well as learning teamwork, as well as getting plenty of exercise too.

I would say I know how to play now. I’m not especially amazing or talented, but I’m competent enough to go out and play with my co-workers. I’m still not confident enough to just show up at a playground and pickup a game. I’m working on it though!
