    As long as you know how to dribble the ball and shoot, you can already play the basics of the game. Dribbling is so easy to learn, you can even learn it by just watching how it is done on YouTube or watch some NBA game highlights. Shooting is also easy to perform, although you need a lot of practice to hit it like the GODS of shooting, like Ray Allen or Stephen Curry. Simply throw the ball into the ring and watch it sink in. Another one is defense. Who says that playing defense is difficult? If you are playing against a good player, maybe it is. However, its fundamentals are easy to learn. You just have to stand in front of a player, use your body to block his or her way, and use your arm in a legal way to prevent him from shooting or passing the ball. If you're really bad at dribbling maybe you're good at shooting. There was a survey in Minnesota Amateur Sports commission on a high school and the results were surprising.

    Ever since I was a little boy, about eight years old or so, I had an extreme passion for the sport of basketball. On weekends, I would wake up in the morning, eat a bowl of frosted flakes or cheerios, put on basketball shorts and then go in my driveway to shoot around. I would be out there for hours just shooting around or playing with some random kids that I would occasionally see walking around my neighborhood. This was satisfaction to me, but even better was playing on multiple public teams and not just playing in my driveway every day. In elementary school, I played in a recreational league, just like almost every other kid who tries out basketball when they were younger. This was fun and all but it was nothing too serious. There were never any practices, it was just one or two unorganized games per week. I never took
