I love basketball because you play in a team and you run a lot. I started playing on the Cristo Rey team this year. My companions are very positive and cheerful.
Before a game I feel a little nervous because I'm looking forward to playing. During the match we encourage each other. On the court, the secret is to pass as fast as possible, make easy passes and put the maximum points as a team. If you can not score, it is best to pass to a partner who is free or can easily receive a pass.
After playing we are very happy although we have lost because we have had a great time, we have learned new things and we have more friends. I love basketball!
There is a saying, "A good attack wins games, but a good defense wins championships." It's a very common statement when you describe the most successful basketball teams - at any level of play. However, defense is not the priority for most players and coaches in matches. Why does that happen? For starters, when you learn to defend in basketball is not easy, but you can do it. Sadly, most players and coaches do not put much effort and time to defend on the court. Another reason why they do not focus on improving defense is because it is not as fun as other aspects of the game. Yes - throwing, throwing, passing and other offensive aspects are more enjoyed by learning, teaching and practicing them. But with the aim of being complete in all aspects of the game, players and coaches should devote a part of their time in learning the defense. It is essential to your success! The 10 criteria in the list below will help you determine if a player can be considered completely defensive.
- In the open defense and post man to man. If your coach wants you to run, retain an area, or whatever, it is your decision but in the end this takes you man to man.
- You must first develop the right defense, find out if your opponent is right or left-handed and try to place one foot and one arm forward to force him to use his weak side. If you have your hand in the middle and it happens to you, you will be in a position to steal the ball.
- You must move to where he goes so that you are aware of when he wants to pass and you use to steal the ball.
- If you decide to drive, keep your body, not your arms, between him and the basket. If you put yourself in shooting position, place your strong hand up and try to block the shot or at least distract it. If it is much higher, place your hand on your face. Jump only if he jumps because he can fuck you.
