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.
