NBA Dunk Contest

Michael Jordan, Blake Griffin, and Vince Carter are some of the great dunkers in the NBA that won the dunk contest. This year Paul George, Damien Lillard, John Wall, Terrence Ross, Harrison Barnes and Ben Mclemore are in the contest. This is going to be exciting because they are all good and cool Dunkers. I think Paul George is going to win because he did a really cool 360 reverse Dunk in a game against the LA Clippers.

Zooming in

The scored was tied 46-46 and we were one game out of a playoff seed. I glanced up at the clock and when I saw the :05 on the scoreboard I knew we had to win this now. Our team was exhausted after destroying our opponents ten point lead during half time. Even with the momentum at our side, there was no way we were going to survive the extra five minute period. We came out of the timeout wanting to win it all. The inbounder passed the ball to me. I dribbled. Now four on the clock. Every second lasting a minute, a hour. Now three, a screen comes and I go around. Two, a crossover then a step back. One, the ball leaves my hand in a high ark seeming like centuries before the ball drops. It makes a swish sound that sounds like victory. That’s because it is. Victory.

Team H20

This year I am playing basketball on a rec team. Our team name is H2O. We had our first practice on Wednesday. Our team is all wrms 7th graders. There is Shaan, Asher, Jered, Clark, Kyle, Zach, Dillon, Sam and me. We have our first game this Saturday. A lot of my friends are playing in this league. I am very excited. H2Uh-Oh

NBA Jam

I play a lot of video games. But all the video games i play are new video games. I think all old video games are boring except for one, NBA Jam. NBA Jam is pretty much a basketball with NBA superstars and power ups. They made a new version to for the X-Box and Apple devices so you don’t have to play it on old arcade machines. I bought NBA jam on my X-Box and IPad and it is really fun. i am really good at NBA Jam and i always use the Golden State Warriors as my team. One thing i don’t like about NBA Jam is that a lot of people just shoot three-pointer when i play online multiplayer and three-pointers are really easy to make on NBA Jam and when people just shoot threes it takes the fun out of the game. It’s almost like cheating.
