Here comes trouble! For about a week maybe I will not post something new here. Yes, it’s because I have to face my destiny to fight in this hell exam week. So, just be patient to wait until my next post okay. Oh yeah, I have a plan to let you see the picture of my neighborhood, coming soon

Your neighborhood is something that create your character/personality besides your family. Same thing happens with your basketball skill, because I think everybody have their own unique character of their basketball skill. Your basketball skill is just like your personality that makes you different from other basketball player, either you are better from others or not. And one thing that created that is your neighborhood.
What I mean by neighborhood is the place that you usually practicing or playing basketball. If you usually play in a place with many skillful player, then it will effect in your skill. So, if you are usually playing basketball in your backyard, now try to find some playground that you think will have a great impact in your skill. I don’t mean that playing in your backyard is not good, sometimes it’s okay, but try to find somewhere else that you can take some learning from that place. Many players lack of experience in basketball game because they always playing with other players that also lack of experience.
But be careful! If you playing in a field that many player playin’ dirty, you maybe also will become a dirty player too.

How do I say this? I’m very jealous of you who have the time to do your basketball practice and workout. Right now I just have the weekend to play basketball or do some practice. Inside myself I want to be a better player, but time doesn’t allow me.
With just Saturday and Sunday in my basketball practice schedule, I will work extra hard to pay my loss. I know that maybe short daily practice is better than long weekly practice, but I’m grateful that I’m still have the time to spend my passion of basketball.

Basketball is a Brotherhood, that is what basketball supposed to be, that is the basketball that I’m looking for. This video series made me realize and I hope made you realize too.
Basketball is a Brotherhood, is a video series that created by Adidas. Actually, this is the type of commercial that I like. Not just branding their products, Adidas with this video series also try to raise an issues that I think is very fundamental in basketball.
This video series consist of eleven episodes and also come up with several supported videos. The video is about six all-star NBA players that tried to teach twelve high school boys what the game of basketball should be about.
Maybe I will post several articles about couple of things that I watched in those video series. You can watch all the videos here.
In one of my team, my local neighborhood team actually, I have an asshole annoying teammates that i want to punch shut his mouth every time I play with him. He always think that he is the absolute right one, and always blame every mistake to people around him (including me). Read the rest of this entry »
