  • The Fundamentals of Shooting the Basketball
    The Fundamentals of Shooting the Basketball The objective of the offense in Basketball is accuracy of each attempted shot. Most players recognize this; but, only the better shooters learn how to practice correctly and work at improvement year round. Since most of this practice sessions are alone, every player must be his own critic. This means he\she must understand the proper mechanics that affect the success, or failure, of every shot. Every player must know his range and know what is a good shot. Therefore, before examining the techniques associated with the various shots, a good basketball player is expected to have in his arsenal, here are the principles at work in every scoring shot from anywhere on a basketball court. These are divided into two parts, the mental aspect and the physical aspect: 1. Mental. At no time is psychological conditioning more critical than when shooting the basketball in a game. Knowing when to shoot and being able to do it effectively under pressure distinguishes the great shooter from the ordinary. Regardless of how much he practices, or how well he conditions himself, only a modest amount of improvement is possible in speed, reflexes, or strength. History gives many examples of players able to achieve greatness despite mediocre physical talent. Usually, however, such successes are due to determination. a. Concentration: is the fixing of attention on the job at hand and is characteristic of every great athlete. Through continuous practice, good shooters develop their concentration to the extent that they are oblivious to every distraction. Ability to relax: is closely related to concentration.

  • Analyzing Sometimes It's Helpful to Start by Summarizing the Work in One Sentence, Just So You're Sure What's Going On
    2 CHAPTER 2 • CLOSE READING Of joy, & we knew we were Beautiful & dangerous. 40 {1992) Analyzing Sometimes it's helpful to start by summarizing the work in one sentence, just so you're sure what's going on. In "Slam, Dunk, & Hook," the speaker expresses how basketball provided an escape from his life's troubles. Clearly, even this initial statement engages in a certain level of interpretation-not only does it state that the poem is about basketball, but it also draws the inference that the speaker's life was troubled and that basketball was his means of escape. The next step is examining what makes the poem more complex than this brief summary. How does Komunyakaa convey a sense of exuberance? of joy? of danger? How does he make the situation something we feel rather than just read about? Let's begin our analysis by thinking a bit about the poem's title. It's all about action, about moves. But a "slam dunk" is just one move, so why is there a comma between "Slam" and "Dunk"? Does this construction anticipate the rhythm in the poem itself? Our next consideration could be the speaker, who is evidently reflect­ ing on a time in his youth when he played basketball with his friends. The speaker describes the "metal hoop" that was "Nailed to [their] oak" and a backboard "splin­ tered" by hard use. We're not in the world of professional sports or even in the school gym. You will probably notice some things about the poem as a whole, such as its short lines, strong verbs, and vivid images.

  • EFFECTIVE OFFENSIVE POST PLAY INVOLVES “CREATING SPACE” It
    EFFECTIVE OFFENSIVE POST PLAY INVOLVES “CREATING SPACE” It is a misconception, when shooting in the low post area, the player should shoot over the opponent. That works well if you’re seven feet tall, but what about those who are at the short end of the height mismatch? How do they get an open shot? LOCATION FOR INITIATING MOVES The answer lies in “creating space” from the defender. We’re going to assume the taller defender is not going to front his opponent and the ball can be caught at the mid post. The mid post is the most effective starting place for post moves. Too low and there is no baseline option. If a player is straddling a point any lower than the first line above the block, he is too low. Pivoting baseline to face the basket from the mid post provides a perfect angle for the bank shot: the forty-five degree angle. The mid post location is also good for stepping into the key for the hook shot, or making a drive toward the hoop. CREATING SPACE No offensive arsenal, from any location on the floor, is effective without the threat of penetration. Even the greatest offensive player in history, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, was a constant threat to wheel around a defender for the short hook shot. This threat caused defenders to give him space by backing off. Any player who played Kareem tight, would immediately find Kareem closer to the basket than he was. The threat of the drive creates space. Therefore, we must teach our post, when posting up with the defender behind, to read the defense and make baseline drop step, baseline spin move, or hook shot across the key if possible.

  • HORSE Shootout Rules
    HORSE Shootout Rules H-O-R-S-E is a game played by two people on a basketball court. The idea of the game involves matching baskets. The player who makes shots that the opponent does not duplicate, wins the game. Example: The second person shooting must duplicate the first person's shot, if it is made. If the second shooter misses, he/she receives the letter "H". If the first person's shot is missed, the second shooter may attempt any shot. If his/her shot is made, the opponent is obligated to duplicate it. Each time a shooter misses a shot that he/she attempted to duplicate, a letter is "awarded". The game continues until one person accumulates 5 letters or H-O-R-S-E. The Rules 1. The person who will shoot first will be determined by coin flip or basket shot. 2. Shots can be attempted from anywhere on the court. No dunking or stuffs. 3. Shots may be "slop" shots or "called" shots. "Called" shots must be made as the call indicates or counts as a miss. "Called" shots must be called before the shot. "Called" shots are as follows: a. Bank - off backboard and into basket, may touch rim. b. Bank Swish - off backboard and into basket without touching rim. c. Straight In - must go into basket without touching backboard or rim. d. Swish - directly into basket without touching backboard or rim. e. Opposite Hand - if shooter is right handed the shot is attempted with left hand and vice versa. f. Jump Shot - both feet off court when ball is released.

  • Basketball Study Guide Lms - P.E
    BASKETBALL STUDY GUIDE LMS - P.E. History of the Game Basketball was first developed in 1891 by James Naismith as a way for athletes to keep themselves in shape during the winter months. He was the Physical Education Director at the International YMCA Training School (now Springfield College) in Springfield, Massachusetts. The early basketball games were played with a soccer-style ball and peach baskets. There was also no limit in the number of players or balls that could be used at once. It was not uncommon to see a game with 50 players and 5 balls. In 1892, Naismith developed 13 simple rules to help govern the game. Some of these rules are still used today. The rules of the game were published in a national magazine and its popularity spread quickly throughout the United States. The game grew so fast that the first intercollegiate basketball game was played in 1896. In 1936, basketball became an Olympic sport. Object of the Game • The object of the game is to advance the ball toward your opponent’s basket (by dribbling or passing) and to score more points than your opponent by shooting the ball through the basket (field goal) or from the free throw line (free throw). • Each team attempts to score points as they move the ball down the court by passing, dribbling, and shooting it into their basket. At the same time they try to prevent their opponent from scoring. Official Basketball Rules • Timed periods will be played. 4 Quarters in high school/NBA. 2 halves in college • The game will begin with a jump ball.
