e-Basketball

Derrick Rose is my favorite example of how a person can overcome, be humble and keep hoping in what he does, growing as a person. Despite of this, I would like to clarify why is him that special for me. Well, when he used to play in the Chicago Bulls, I didn’t know him. I knew about him in one of his games with the Minnesota Timberwolves, it was because he made 54 points, a lot for just one game, and he made it when he came back from his injury in 2012. Derrick Rose was an MVP, but because of his injury, he lost this privilege. When he played the game I talked before, he cried, and people started to scream this word “MVP”, motivating him to continue playing, because he was doing it really well. This person had a lot of problems and he didn’t descend, he could just succeed, with the support of his beautiful family and the people that believes in him. He taught me how to encourage myself to do what I think is correct.

Referees are key part of a basketball game, their decisions can change the complete game and a bad decision would make them feel guilty. In spite of this, referees always try to give their bests to the field, trying to succeed in every game. Every referee in the game has to be cooperating in order to have a good performance, avoiding cheating and giving the victory to the team they want, because this is unfair. This people has to be the most impartial they can and they cannot show any preference they have, because this can change the whole course of the game. Referees in these times are not respecting the rules, they usually have preferences and they show them. This have to change as soon as possible, for the common good of the basketball society.

We know basketball has been expanded a lot in these last years but I would like to share with you my opinion about professional basketball players in these times. Everybody have heard about Michael Jordan, the one who made history with his famous hop, considered by most of the people as the greatest basketball player of all time. I bet you have also heard LeBron James and Stephen Curry names, the ones that are currently beating records and climbing in the table of best players in the history. LeBron James has already passed Jordan records, being considered the best player of basketball in these days. Nevertheless, I really prefer some other players, that have a different way to play the game. I think we have really great players in the NBA right now, and I would like to mention Derrick Rose in this post, because I really like how he plays. He dominates speed and he knows how to take decisions, making him unstoppable.

There are a lot of basketball players in the NBA right now, everyone with a different characteristic that make them creative and successful players but who is my favorite player in the whole NBA? Well, I would like to talk about the player that turns the basketball into an art, something just like magic in the field. I am talking about Derrick Rose, the Point Guard of the Minnesota Timberwolves. This thirty years old player has given me the best example of encouragement I have ever seen and I really enjoy the style of game he dominates. This star injured his knee in 2012, in a game against the Philadelphia 76ers, while he was playing with the Chicago Bulls. Then, six years later, he came back much stronger and intelligent, impressing everybody with his ability with the ball and the performance that he is giving, being the favorite player of lots of people, including me. This example of overcoming is my favorite one, and I appreciate it a lot, because it taught me that if y...

In this post I want to introduce you to my little experience playing basketball. I still remember some of that. First of all, it all started in my school, I can say I’m tall for my age, and I used to when I was younger, so this is why my family wanted me to play basketball, considering the fact that they have been good players since a young age. What motivated me was my trainer, he was good and that made me want to assist to his trainings. I remembered I played in the school team but after some time I started to hate the sport, I think it was because people wanted too much from me, and I couldn’t please everybody, making myself feel like I was not enough for basketball. So I played in the school every year, but I didn’t enjoy it. Well, it’s true we won all the games but it wasn’t what I wanted for me yet. Then I entered to the city team, where I improved my abilities in a short period of time.
