Friendship And Basketball

One of the best things about the game of basketball is that it is a team sport. If you want to win games you are going to have to do your part, but your teammates are also going to have to do theirs. For this reason, great bonds can be formed through the game of basketball. This holds true when players form friendships as well as coaches. The bottom line is that there is no better way to make friends than through sports; especially the game of basketball.

The reason that basketball brings people together is because they have to work with one another on the court. And over time as you work with somebody on the court, you will become closer to them in other areas of your life as well. And this does not just hold true for younger kids that are playing the game of basketball. Even grown men who play in the NBA make a lot of life long friends through the game of basketball. With basketball you do not have to be a certain age to make friends. As long as you are open to meeting new people the sky is the limit. You can make friends with both your teammates and your coaches. And in many cases these are people that you will remain friends with the rest of your life.

Overall, friendship and basketball go together nicely with one another. There is no other game on the face of the earth that helps bring people together like basketball.

Basketball Techniques That Amaze Even Professional Players

Professional basketball isn't only about who runs faster or jumps higher, it is about making the right decisions on court based on the player's game intelligence skills. An innovative technology claims to skyrocket the player's basketball techniques and game intelligence by developing his or her brain-skills.

Acquiring superior basketball techniques requires at least some basic natural born talent and a daily hard work on court and lots of it! No matter how hard you practice, how good you memorize drills, moves and work on your techniques, it all comes to the point where you need to execute it all on court, under intense pressure with minimum court time.

Basketball dribbling, shooting, moving on court while “reading” the game and executing it all precisely and effectively, is about a player’s brain-skills and game intelligence.

A team of cognitive “brain-training” scientists claim to have identified the brain-functions responsible for those skills; together with a team of leading basketball coaches they developed a unique software system that enables any basketball player, at any level, to dramatically improve his or her basketball techniques and game intelligence.

Basketball Coaching Video Game

The system was designed to feel and look like a video game, while the player is shooting spaceships and chasing the “bad guys”, it stimulates the exact brain functions required of a basketball player on court, the system analyzes the player’s performance, it spots weak points or setbacks, finally customizing a training program, tailor-made to fit that individual player.

After 6-8 weeks of “brain-training”, the player unconsciously and surprisingly executes much better on court in the areas of: decision making under pressure, improved shot selection, enhanced movement anticipation, heightened court sense and pattern recognition.
