Basketball


Basketball is a sport that has alot of meaning in my life... basketball is a team game played by 5 players on the court on each team.

Basketball has alwiz been a great way for me to bond with my old school mates and good friends. Like when we are on the court, all worries are taken off our shoulders.

I feel as I take a shot, I am dumping my worries and (beban) of things i have in my life. As the shot enters the net, it kinda represents to me the worries are placed in a little black box.

My favourite player in the NBA currently is Tracy Mcgrady:

~He is a former scoring champion while with the Orlando Magic
~A common All Star attendant
~Currently plays for the rockets
~Cousin of high flyer Vince Carter(VC)


Kevin Garnett is the favourite player of one of my best pal Loh Yi Sin. I miss him man. He is a guy who shares interest with me in basketball.



Elements of the sport that pumps adrenaline into my blood stream while watchin:

1) Clutch shooters like Michael Jordan. His shot help the Bulls win their sixth NBA title against the Utah Jazz.

2) Dunkers who are high flyers like Kobe Bryant and Vince Carter.



3) Friendships build through the game:
