Basketball research paper

Most athletes love to play or watch basketball. It's fun but also challenging to those who make it to the NBA. Any basketball player of today or of the past will tell you. Now the future players of the NBA(which could be any of us) are working hard to get to that point. But the mistake most players think its all about scoring. Well there is many more things to keep your team and yourself successful. 

 

On almost every NBA team today there is a few players who don't mind sharing the ball.  John Stockton holds the record for assist with 15806 in his whole career.  In order for basketball players to be successful on the offensive end of the court, they must develop good habits. At the same time, they should avoid or eliminate bad habits(Ben Rubenstein).  John Stockton developed good habits by spreading the ball around.  The person closest to Stockton's record is Jason Kidd with 11578.  Both of them don't mind spreading the ball to their team.

 

 It's just a natural thing to score, for everyone.  Many others who struggle sharing the ball or scoring either have play good defense or grab some rebounds.  Offensive rebounds can change the mood of the game some time.  It gives that team another chance to score.  Defensive rebounds are important to and can get the fast break going. 

 As for the stars of the game they like to share the ball sometimes and have good offensive and defensive game.  Some of them are able to get rebounds some struggle to get some.  Some stars may have an excellent offensive game but can't buckle down on defense.

The point of this paper is just really explaining how to get to the NBA.  The chance of me getting isn't very high.  I still have a lot of room for improvement, but so do many others.  We all can't be the next great players but with a lot of hard work some could at least make it there.
