How to play basketball

Since I were in primary school, I joined in the basketball team at the school. During that time, I feel very interested in playing basketball. Let me share some experiences that I learned before to you .

First, The basketball instructor showed how to release the ball at the right height, right speed, and with the right trajectory, so that it is easier to touches the net. Then, they do it by applying spin to the ball and practicing the release of the ball at many different angles and heights. It is important to have a feel for the speed necessary to shoot the ball the center of the basket. In the jump shot and the free throw methods. Jump shot is a shot bounced off the backboard, but the jump shot is aimed at the center of the rim. On the other hand, the main successful shot are spin, angle of release and speed. It is pushed by a player’s fingertips rather than by the palm of the hand. This gives the shooter better control by releasing the ball with a flick of the wrist, it allows to put backspin on it. In long shot, the longer the ball is in the air, the greater the air resistance it encounters, so, it need to shoot the ball with even greater speed and a larger margin. In the past history, there were some basketball hero, like Michael Jordan in Chicago Bull, Thomas in Pistons, Larry Bird in Boston and Kobe Bryant in LA Laker. We can see their performance in some website or in youtube.
