how much time did u take to learn basketball ??

Basketball is a very intersting sport. To me it isn't a very difficult sport. But you never stop learning. There is always more for you to learn. Even if it is how to make a better move on the opponet. But to learn the basics it took me probably a couple of weeks. I started to play in Kindergarten.

it took me few months to learn a basket ball as every things needs time it does not matter thats it games or studies . and same happened with me when i started playing it but after endless i became better and better day by day........and thats how i learnt it.

I think there is always something that you can improve in your skills.

Well, I started playing when I was eight and it just stuck with me I guess. The younger you start, the easier usually. So what has been difficult for you? The skills of dribbling and shooting or you mean all the rules? Getting a good shot and dribbling can take a very long time to learn; it comes to someone more easily if they are very athletic.

5-6 months it seem me too much I learn it for 1 months but I am not professional player.

It took me like a few days, I was like 5 when i started playing at the local YMCA. Course not all the rules were in place, but yeah it should only take a few days if you have a good coach teaching you. The thing about your height may have lengthened it because usaully your a bit like lanky on the court as a bigger person who just grew.

am born having giftness playing basketball

about a week i think.. .

me either, im about 6 feet. but currently don't have any partner to play basketball. im start to play basketball about in junior high. until now, still love it. it just need more time to know about the rule. in fact some new rules have come up everytime. it just i'm having trouble too using my left hand for playing. cause im not a lefty:D

Yes it really takes time. I think it took me 3 weeks to learn the game and took maybe a 6 months to understand how the game must be played. But playing consistently can make a player play as its best.

To learn the game of basketball has taken me a lifetime, though I do know the basics. I am 21 years old and can only dribble ands shoot. I don't find the game very interesting anyways.

i started when i was young learning the fundamentals and the basics of the game. it took me years to completely understand the game. to this day, ive been playing for 18 years, i still see things ive never seen before or calls that i still dont understand.

It took me 2 months to learn every rule of the game when I started when AI was 4 and I started on one of those little tike basket hoops with adjustable net hahaha I love the good old days

it did not take me long at all to understand the game, but I was playing since i was 3 and when i pleyed for school it helped that i played a lot before. so to understand basketball properly took a few weeks.

Great topic! I've picked up basketball at the age of 14 under the influence of my elder brother. Have been playing for 6yrs. But i never felt good enough to represent for any competition. For the rules and regulations, its pretty easy, if there someone to guide you, a day is enough. But the shooting requires a little talent, that goes the same for passing, and dribbling. wah~ suddenly feel like playing basketball!!
