I'm a shoot first-pass second Point Guard. If the people aren't that big, I play Shooting Guard. I got below average 3 point range, good mid-range, and average handles. I like to shoot outside a lot but I drive in on pressure situations. I am clutch, mainly on the offensive end.
I got good offensive awareness, below average D.

How do you play?

Pass-first point guard really, shooting guard when I get ticked off.

I love initiating the pick-and-roll play. Streaky shooter but I think I can break and analyze the defense very well. Gets a lot of steals but I can NEVER guard a person backing down. rofl

Man I love running the point, Im more of the past first guard but if we need to score then thats what I would do.
My game usually revolves around passing and defensive stopper, occasionally I take a three when Im really open.
Average stats from last season
ppg- 6.8
reb- 7.2
a**- 5.9
blk- 2.1
stl- 1.4

pretty good numbers for playing about 20 mins a game

i didnt join my high school team
they dont pick...freshmen thats what i heard
based on playing in the park and in my backyard.....
i am a SF/SG...i am tall but skinny so i cant bang w/ the big guys
i take alot of layups & hits alot of continuations
can work on d and dribble...i worry too much
cant layup with left hand....but penetration covers that up
shoots when open and makes a high percentage
favors hook shots in the paint
can shoot with the weirdest strokes or position
need work on fadeaway
rebounds exceptionally well with a high hop
im basically and offensive rebounder
i do alot of putback shots
i suck if i dont play in a week.....
which only happens during summer and winter time or injury

i play point, i love man 2 man cause i can out run most of the girls in my leauge, and because im small they put the smaller people on me wich is more 2 my advantage
i like fast moving offense and quick defense the faster you steal it back, the better...

My school coach doesn't call the positions SG/SF he calls it by the #2 and 3. But yeah I play those positions. I have no court vision whatsoever unless it's a breakaway. Coach does alot of three man weaves with us.

I am sort of like Tim Duncan, simply but effective, when I post up and pivot and look at the basket, if open go for a bucket, if not look for a shooter...I average about 10 blocks per game, and 6 pts per game, 13 rebs per game, and lastly 8 assists per game.

I forgot to say how I play lol.


Shoot-first PG. I like to shoot a lot but not long range. I like having shooters on my team I can kick out the ball to as well as good post guys. On D, I like to guard the shooters, and littler dudes. I don't poke it out a lot, but I can get a good position on him.

At the park, I'm unstoppable and for school, I'm average compared to other good people.

i just shoot, shoot, shoot and sometimes take it up. i like having guys who can spread the floor and draw double teams. that way they can find me for an easy shot.

i'm not a good defender but i really don't mind who i have to guard.

Problem with the U.S. playing style of basketball: no emphasis on teamwork.

Just saying based on the poll.
