basketball is not a game of skill alone basketball is a game of speed smartness discipline the coaching staff and yes a little talent with all of these any basketball team can win a game. if you want to win a basketball game set pick and rolls and give and goes and on defense if you are in a zone you must work as a unit there is no I in team. you can do little things to win like making your layups and foul shots and REBOUND it is painful to watch a close game and see a team loose because the other team scored so many points off of second chance shots on the other end because of not rebounding the basketball. you can impress a coach by hustling over to the coach when you are called and you should do whatever the coach tells you to do. you can win a coach over just by communicating on defense on like who should be covering who and where everyone should be. you should always be pumped for a game practice or scrimmage any serious basketball player gets there earlier to practice and stays late until the lights turn off if the player can. so many teams can beat any team that is ranked higher than them just like the BUTLER BULLDOGS did by making the march madness tournament championship two years running. they will continue to win because they do all those things mentioned above. if you are not pumped to throw someone to the ground because you ripped a jump ball of off them than you should not be playing the game of basketball. so many players are selfish i am not saying be unselfish but if you see someone wide open in the k=lane on a fast break you should already know to pass it to them. look at the = Miami heat they thought they would win the NBA finals but they were beat by the Dallas mavericks.
