my basketball thread

[HereWeStay]

im going to make this my basketball journal thread. its about my journey to greatness on the court!

well today i just got back from playing 5 vs 5. if you count 2 pointers 2 points and not 1 point, i had around 15 points today, 7 boards and 3 blocks, and had 2 assist lol..

any tips you can give me? i have a little trouble trying to get my mental focus intact.. i have been watching youtube videos on mental focus so i dont overthink when im playing... its sort of helping..

i dont get scared on the court, my mind is sometimes in a different zone, just some times... but since i have watched the videos, they help...


can you guys give me some mental tips....

I don't understand what you mean. It's not an insult, I just don't know what you mean. When I'm on the court, my focus is on nothing, I mean nothing besides the ball. Do I shoot? Do I drive? Do I commit to the block? Do I play the passing lanes? Is that a crossover? Which way will it bounce? If you don't have that mindset, then unless you're as athletically gifted as Dwight Howard or LeBron James, you should not be playing Basketball.

since i made this thread i having been playing people 1 on 1 more often to build my confidence . today i played 1 on 1 against some 6'5 guy and won. we played up to 11. i was hitting step back mid range jumpers and when i had 9 , i went into my marcus thornton big shot mode. i told him the game ends now, i got the ball and did a step back three and won.

getting better!!!
