If you want to make it big in Basketball your gunna have to get in their and work as much as u can but not only on basketball running, speed and vertical also it would hurt to be really strong. bq: Im 13 and a can grab the rim. bq2: 7, bq3: 8.5, bq4: 13, bq5: Well if i can get noticed i have the skill and determination i practise soo much so i think if i can get my name out their i could make the Euro leauge NBA is pushing it.

You only really need an hour. And make sure you know what you’re doing…don’t head to the park thinking you’re just gonna shoot a few baskets. Work on things like footwork, D, dribbling, etc.

BQ – I’m 14 and I can’t yet.
BQ2 – Very young…3 or 4. I was raised in the Philippines where basketball is HUGE.
BQ3 – I’m not as good as most of my friends but I’m pretty happy with my skills. I’m a slasher and I’m known for my defense and court vision more than anything. Probably 6/10.
BQ4 – I am 14.
BQ5 – No. NBA scouts rarely scout players from New Zealand. Besides I don’t think I’m good enough…I’m more of a brains person, haha.

I practice 35 hours a week (not including games, but including team practice, and strength and quickness training.) But I am trying to get to the NBA, so I don’t expect others to keep up with that.

bq: Not yet, but I have a really good base (strong quads and core, flexible, low body fat) I think I’ll be able to dunk at 5’6" in 3-6 months.
bq2: Honestly, I’ve been going to camps and casually playing since I was 8. But in terms of playing everyday, 4-5 hours a day, around 18 months ago.
bq3: I’d say I’m a 6 out of 10 at the varsity level. I’m doing Pete Maravich’s basketball homework everyday, and I think I will be a 10 as a senior.
bq4: 16
bq5: I’m not sure. I think college is a possibility. The NBA is meant for super-athletes. I am very fit, but I don’t have a lot of fast twitch muscle fiber, but I’ve only been training for quickness and vertical for a month or so. Who knows, I could have a 40 inch vertical someday, and with the way I practice, dreams can come true.
