i was reminiscing about how the bball cca grown

year 1 -

at that time it was just me and yuki. noone else who is currently in the team was in the cca yet. the rest were in other ccas. oops i forgot about junyi, but he shoots like a bitch at that time, and i called him the potential threat. see where he is now? my eyesight not bad right?

then the 4 of us played bball together. we were the only class in the year who played bball so regularly. sometimes the 101 ppl would play, but we din see the very often.

we didn't have a ball then. so we borrowed from jon and mona (we used to reverse it to ----)

we played with the y2s and learned alot.

my skill level then sucked. i could dribble, but i couldn't shoot, and i was shorter that stuart (yes stuart, you were like 159, i was 153). i weighed 35kg, baby weight.

year 2 -

zikai, ryan, reshi, htoo, xing chen, weiren joined. we got a team, yay.

the seniors then decided to go competition. i was blur blur that time and didn't bother to train at all. i once got addicted to pokemon... jx joined the cca too. then came daohan, the boy who looked like junyi. i can say he was prolly better than all the y2s then. but then dont forget homeostasis!! we improved alot more muahahahahahaahha. we all improved like heck. muahahhaa. lets play 1v1, long time haven't play liaooo. oh yeah play with yuki too.

then this is when the wars began. we quarelled alot, and broke quite a lot of times. there was once it was just me and jx everyday. ivan yuki and wenbo got quite a lot of friction. then me and jx were two emo fags with no life.

but everything worked out.

year 3 -

we were into jumping. i could touch board, jx too. then we all started going to gym to workout and get high testosterone level with huge balls, and jump higher of course. then got a lot of shit...

kevin, daohan, chen wei joined the cca.

i guess the best addition to our team was chen wei, the centre we longed for so long. dont get me wrong, everyone is good, but no chen wei = no games won. this is the first time china guys were actually nice. =)

the class split left me with yuki. this is also when yuki started taking his studies seriously. way to go! this is prolly also when he actually became like me in his love life, where he didn't like any girl at all.

ivan was an emo gay fag. and he was troubled in his love life. i remember the bday present he bought... shant elaborate. now not so bad.

ivan was asking to be in the team, cos there was one vacancy left. and there was william, junyi and the first round draft pick raynor.

jx was up to his cheekopeking again, then he tried his trademark move: the wave. and it worked!!

wenbo up to his usual stuff.

i got my head straight with yuki and went about our usual bball craze.

now our team not so bad, but it needs alot of work. i doubt any of us are good enough.

our team wont be like the team in coach carter...

In case you didn't know, we will be having our very first friendly on 22 may, friday, during the script checking week, but i dont know if it will be cancelled due to swine flu...

i encourage all people to train and yadayada... who am i kidding?

option 1
train your skills to imbaed by end of year so we have chance to win

option 2
train your physical things like speed and jump so you can dominate in physiques

option 3
do both, train physical then skill wise

option 4
do nothing

option 5
do something other than the above 2, like spinning the ball on your fingers (IT HELPS =))))

if we dont get it next year, we still have one more year, but kevin, ryan, reshi, zikai, chen wei and john all cannot play liao. but we'll prolly get junyi, ivan, william, mario and two other random guys, probably raynor, chester and shaohao.

what an imba team.

jeremy; yuki; jun xiong; wenbo; daohan; ivan; junyi; raynor; william; shaohao;mario; chester

c: junyi: 175-176 (unless he keeps growing till 180)

2011 bball comp is hopeless.
2010 may have hope, that we'll see after sem 2 exams. if not, good luck.

sorry for my pessimistic outburst, but i realised this not too long ago.

i have 2 good stuff:

Would you like to become the best shooteron your team? Are you looking for a more effective way to coach Shooting?

You're not alone! Shooting a basketball is a lost art! Shooting percentages have been declining for over 20 years! Players at all levels miss free throws and open jumpers to lose games! Major NBA stars are embarrassed at the Free Throw Line! You see top college teams shooting under 50% Free Throws at times, and team percentages in the high 50's and low 60's are quite common. International players can shoot better from outside and from the Line. Something's not working!
The USA team could manage only bronze medals in the 2004 Olympics and at the 2006 World Championships. However, our team just dominated the world at the Beijing 2008 Olympics to win the gold medal, and the team and coaches deserve great credit for an outstanding "team" accomplishment! As to the shooting, however, there is still work to be done. It appeared to me the victories were accomplished more by athleticism and defensive pressure than offense. We still need shooting breakthroughs in this country.

Players don't know what to practice

Coaches often don't know how to coach shooting

Coaching just the "Fundamentals" (how to stand, how to hold the ball, where theelbow should point, etc.) isn't enough! Shooting coach Tom Nordland's "Swish" Videos and his coaching method offer an answer!

#2 Vertical Jump Development Bible

Dear fellow athletes, trainers, and coaches,

Are you tired of all the hype, gimmicks, and misinformation - training methods that promise a lot...only to find that they don't create any real and lasting results for you? Have you wondered why Olympic high jumpers and long jumpers aren’t using these programs and gimmicks that promise to double your vertical jump in 6 weeks?

Are you fed up with hearing “you are born with leaping ability - it can't be improved”?

Are you ready and willing to take a realistic approach towards attaining consistent vertical jump improvements?

If you answered yes to these questions then you are not alone. Whether you’re in Jr. High, a professional athlete, or even just a weekend warrior, the respect and awe created by a rim rattling vertical leap is as yearned for and respected as any athletic feat or endeavor. You’re about to discover valuable information that will prevent you from wasting time and money and set you well on your way towards greater heights. I don’t care if your vertical jump now is only 10 inches.

My name is Kelly Baggett. As a teenage athlete with a lot of determination but with very little in the way of athletic gifts I, like a lot of you, was determined to increase my vertical jump. Over the years I wasted a lot of time and money on bogus programs and gimmicks but I decided to go on a mission and find out the truth - the most effective way to increasing leaping ability. That journey started 15 years ago.

“I ended up improving my vertical jump from 23 to 42 inches and now I’m gonna teach you how to improve yours too”

send me a message through msn and i'll send you, only if you really gonna use it and train with it.

which team will win the nba championships this year?

i think: cavaliers
i want: lakers

they are both amazing (obviously i like lakers better, but that doesn't mean i would deny cavaliers are performing better now)

now onto us.

are we just going to sit here and wait until next year, and get humiliated by our opponents?
are we just going to slack off and play like noobs?
are we just going to let time pass us by and do nothing about it?

"i've dreamed about winning it all, since i was probably, nine years old. i remember seeing jordan win it all. i made up my mind right then, that was gonna be me, that i was going to be part of that. some dreams fade over time, but not this one."

Basketball improvement

2009-04-18T20:39:00.000-07:00

How to train for basketball improvement?

what to stop:
1. (stop) playing with kids or noobs who just play bball for fun
2. (stop) doing stupid stuff, like repeating your lousy 30 degree angle shot over and over again and wondering why you cant score.
3. (stop) slacking off when you have the free time and train only during bball trainings.
4. (stop) making excuses.

what to do:
1. listen to your senoirs or people that want to help you.
2. follow what they say
3. practise where you are are supposed to be, like a centre should NOT be practising 3 pters, but hook shots and bank shots and whatever.
4. improve your ball handling and ball awareness
5. ACTUALLY START FOLLOWING ALL OF THE ABOVE ADVICE AND STOP SLACKING OFF YOU B*TCH.

Training

2009-04-17T07:37:00.000-07:00

Didn't get a video of any match today... zzz.

ok for next year b div, we need to train and work really hard, or we'll just lose our faces at the competition.

"We play for one reason and that's to win the title. Practice is more important than the games, and I will practice when I'm hurt, when 95 percent of the players in this league would sit out. I expect all of you to do the same thing. You will follow my lead." - Michael Jordan

WORK WORK WORK.

Work done = Kinetic Energy (final) - Kinetic Energy (initial)

if we are willing to put in more kinetic energy, we will be doing work and we will see improvement. SO TRAIN YOURSELVES BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.

this goes out to all next year competition players.
