If you play basketball, what position are you?

Stratchick · 01-01-2003, 01:06 PM

I used to get really nervous during games, but I've been over it for a long time. I guess when you have been playing in games for 3 years you just get used to them. If you keep on playing, you'll probably get over it too.

I'm pretty good at b-ball but I tried my hand at school ball this year and didn't do so hot cuz I'm not to used to running plays. But when I play I'm kinda the the point-post cuz I'm a good passer but I'm 6'2" with a 6'5" wingspan. I'm 15 so 6'2" is pretty tall for my age.

I never played on an organized team, but I've got some decent outside game, absolutely no inside game, and am a fairly good ball-handler and a great passer, although I can't dribble between my legs and stuff, which kinda rules me out as a point. I guess I'd be a backup Shooting Guard or Small Forward if I actually played. Baseball is my more fav. sport anyway, although I love basketball, too.

I have no outside game what so ever. It's all inside. I know how to make post moves, and I can make almost any inside shot.

I can put up an 18-footer every once in a while, just to keep the D honest. But my specialty is the hook shot. It can catch the defender off-guard and is virtually unblockable, but it takes some practice at it to actually make it affective.

Stratchick · 01-05-2003, 03:05 PM

Cool man.

I'm working on my hook shot.

I play in a rec league, which is pretty fun. I'm 6 foot 1, and basically the tallest guy on the team so I'm mostly a post but will also play wing.
And I just have to say that basketball is the coolest sport ever. Nothing gets me more excited than knowing I'm going to play in a game soon.

I play a 4 or 5 on my class D schools JV team......this is often very difficult since Im an eighth grader and am only 5' 9"

It depended on who I was guarding.

Most of the time I was a shooting guard.

But sometimes I would play small forward.

When I was shooting guard: approximately 22 points a game.

When I would play small forward: 5 points a game.

Ryan Akers · 01-23-2003, 11:59 PM

I played in junior high....stopped in high school because the coach was just too much for me...very tempered and stuff....

7th grade: Forward

8th grade: Guard, Forward and Center

I was the biggest guard anyone had ever seen. 5'11 and 175lbs...this was a few years ago. I went to a small school and only averaged about 13 points a game...but I was the second highest scorer on the team behind out 6'2 center....

I'm not bragging - I suck now

Most of the time i'm like a two guard of small forward athough today I played point guard cause nobody else wanted too. I suck at dribbling so i can't don't get to play it all the time.

GMartin2R · 01-25-2003, 02:30 AM

i'd probably be best at point guard though it woudl take a ton of practice for me to get good. i'm super short so i have to stick to the perimeter for the most part or find a super wide open lane, but i actually overshoot my 3s. half court shots i can muscle up, albeit not on target, but i can get them there without much effort at all. i played with soem guys from Moody NW today and i played was kinda all over. i've never played organized ball so i'm not very good. but i'm getting better. i'd definitely be mostly an assist person if i did play with low points production other than long 3s. but considering i play once a week that might have something to do with why i'm not very good...:kroll:

Stratchick · 01-25-2003, 02:27 PM

My coach keeps on making me play guard, and I've realized I'm not that bad at it. Though I'm sure he would never make me point guard. Also the only reason I'm good at guard is because I can power dripple my way into the lane from the perimeter and put the ball up. I can not shoot 3's to save my life. Also the first time he had me playing guard, I walked with the ball at least 4 times.
