Kobe Bryant is to be considered to be one of the greatest basketball players of all time. With 5 NBA Championships and an MVP award he not only backs up the fact that he might be the greatest with titles, but also as an individual with the MVP he obtained. His dominance in the game of basketball drives me to be like him. He is my role model in not just sports but also in life. Kobe is a 6’6 shooting guard in the NBA that plays for the Los Angeles Lakers. He was born August 23, 1978. Growing up,…

Sports are fun to play. I am a natural sportsperson. Whenever I go outside, I look for friends to play sporting games so I have a lot of practice with all sports. But, it I am given a choice, I would have to say that softball is my favorite sport. I like softball because it helps me stay active, it keeps me alert and it is fun. I love to get up early in the morning and play a game of softball. It gives me a chance to move about the field in every direction just by hitting that small yellow…

My Career goal is to be a WNBA Player (Women’s National Basketball Association).WNBA is a women’s professional league. There are 12 teams in the league. In Women’s basketball, it helps to be tall, but height alone won’t keep you in the game. In basketball you have to eat the right food and stay health and get plenty of rest, and also stay in shape. I plan to achieve my goal when I’m done with high school and going to college to play basketball in college. When I start playing in college I’m…

The armed forces, we have in America is a privilege some countries don't even have police. They fight for us and sacrifice their life for us. But athletes do a lot for this world they've changed it. Some athletes have inspired people to treat one another like family no matter what to…

automatically think best basketball player of all time; (Which is true), but what you don’t know is that the reason he was so successful is because he believed in himself. He believed that hard work is everything he also believed that failure is ok, but its not ok to not try and that was what drove him. Michael Jordan had some tough times where others would have quit, he stayed and worked harder than he did before to make the cut. A lot of people only know him based on his basketball ability…

Setback in Minnesota During Friday night’s game against the Detroit Pistons, Minnesota’s starting point guard Zach LaVine went down hard halfway through the 3rd quarter clutching his left knee. Nevertheless LaVine managed to get up and continue playing throughout the quarter finally sitting out in the fourth. Unfortunately for the Timberwolves the Pistons pulled through and won the game 116-108, while LaVine finished with 20-4-4 on 9-13 shooting. Fast forward to Saturday, the Timberwolves…

Inspiration comes to all of us in many ways. Basketball is one of them, basketball has been a huge impact in my life. I have played basketball for about ten years and even though I’ve stopped playing basketball because of college, basketball still impacts my life. From playing basketball it has taught me so much, such as never giving up, work hard even if you feel like giving up and work together. Even though basketball had been a part of my life but what inspires me the most would have to be my…

be a professional basketball player. Playing basketball is something I love to do and I can get paid money to do so. I remember being a little kid and seeing Lebron winning all these championships. I wanted to do the same but win more. Lebron is 6’8 and I am 6’3 in the 8th grade, I think I have a pretty good chance to be his height. I like how lebron plays he plays defense, he hustles, passes the ball well, and can score when he wants. My whole family grew up playing basketball my mom played 2…

Once Allen Iverson went 1 year in college and went to the NBA because he had to take care of his family. College players should be able to go to the NBA after one year in college. They should be able to go because some players might not have enough money to continue college. They should be able to go because they might get hurt after the first year. One reason why it would be a good idea to keep the NBA age limit at 19 is because let's say the age limit is 20. So they will have to stay in…
