all this talk about NBA, I haven't find any threads about your own basketball, so I decided to post one.
Do you play basketball? what positions are you playing and how long have you been playing?
Me, I've been playing basketball since I was 9, i always play against my dad at first (and yeah, he was beating me down) until i sharpen my basketball skills and played for my school. all day of every day I've played basketball, but until i get to college, i started slowing down on playing, because of school, and my friends who plays with me started doing something else also.
I'm 5'10, but i play forward (sometimes center). now, i only play when i get invited, just for exercise.
how about you?

Watching NBa and playing fantasy basketball is the closest, as to say on how much basketball is in my life.

I used to play in organized leagues when I was younger, but lately it's usually just finding a good pick-up game, whether it's out at a local park or at the YMCA. When I was in junior high, I was an off guard usually. I was not one for handling the ball, but I could play a little point if needed. I basically lost the organized part in high school, I was much more into football than I was into basketball. I only play now for fun and to get a little work out when I want to.

Me too. i only play basketball as form of exercise.
now, i only play basketball when i get invited by friends...
unlike before, I always was the first boy on the court, hoarding players to invite for a 5 on 5.

That's great. So you're really good. I play shooting guard since I'm not as tall as you. I love to hear the swish sound when the shot is in!

I'm not that good, it's just that i like basketball a lot... before then, basketball was my life. I prefer playing basketball than watching tv, or do stuff. I was a varsity player, but I was never the 'star', or the best player on the team. My play is more of a role player than a no.1 option.
