my favorite sport
by: Miguel Molina
My favorite sport is basketball because I like the strategy people put in order to make a score which came from an ancestor sport from the Mayans. The Mayans use rubber balls that bounce on their hips to send it to a hoop shape to get scores to dust time and whichever teamed failed must sacrifice their weakest player. Basket ball is the only game on how you handle the ball, to show talent to the players and brings pride. But sometimes I don’t like it cause the is not cool when I miss the shots since I know how to shoot.
The first time I was into basket ball is the first time I made a shots in a fair. I was only ten years old and I was a natural. The seller said “3 shots for one big price, you’ll get 100$ if you make three pointers in the three angles.” I wanted to try it so I paid the man 5 bucks to try. You cant make those shots only if your Michael Jordan or Coby Bryant in the leage. So I went on ahead and I wasn’t worried cause you will also get a price if you don’t make 2 or 3.
So I went on and shot the first one, it was silent you hear the ball bouncing in the rims and it went in. The seller was like “ it was a lucky shot, go ahead shoot at the 30 angle.” So I went to the leaf side and my dad said to aim at the corner ofe the red rectangle. When I shoot the ball I lost balance and I fell nbut the ball was in the air and bounce of the black board and into the net. I made the second shot so far and the seller was amaze on the first two shots.
The seller said “ you know that there is a saying three time a charm but people he will never make the third shot.” I got mad and got the ball and concentrate, I look at the ball is rubber from nike and orange, hmm, it had a nice grip on it I thought. I put my feet in the position. I could only see the net and the rim I can’t see the red box. It is a strait shot, you could hit the board but is too risky and you could aim for a swoosh but I think I’m out of luck.
So I shoot the ball it went like a rainbow. You see every ones eye on the ball and the seller with his sneak face. Bump……floosh, the ball went in I yelled of luck and thank the seller. He said “ boy you sure is a player. Tell you what I’ll give you 200$ dollars just don’t let your mama know that and I will give this ball that you shot with.” It was singed by Michael J. you could tell it was the happiest day of my life.
Once I had that ball I was surely sure that I was going to be a real basket ball player. My dad said you will always achieve you just need to believe. That saying got me there. So he put me in the team but I didn’t make it. The coach said I was too slow but you have skill to make those and get those shots and rebounds just come when your ready or got better. So I have been playing basketball ever since. It is my life and I failed a thousand ways but I learned a thousand tricks in my sleeve. That’s why basket ball was my favorite sport. If your wondering what happen to that ball it is safe and I sold it now for 2000 dollars cash. Huh it is worth it.
