Period 6 Blog # 3 Basketball

Team positions. A basketball team has five players that play five different postions.

1. A "1" is the point guard. This person is the best dribbler and passer. This person brings the ball down the court and has the best chance of maintaining possesion of the ball if pressure is put on.

2. A "2" is the shooting guard. This person has the best shot on the team. You want this person to shoot the ball for you the most.

3. A "3" is the small forward. This person is a pretty good at shooting and rebounding. They will cut through the lane and be a threat.

4. A "4" is the power forward. This person is a great rebounder and will spend most of the time with their back to the basket, or playing in the post. They will take close shots and look to rebound every ball.

5. A "5" is the center. This person is usually the tallest person on the team and specializes in shot blocking and rebounding. On offense, they are like the power forward and play close to the basket.

Your team does not have five players but I want you to look at your team and assign the players on your team a role or position as described base on your perception of their abilities so far. List each player on your team and what position they fit the best and why.

Max is a power forward because he usually gets rebounds and takes close shots when possible.

Sami is a point guard because she is the best dribbler on the team and can find ways to get the ball to an open spot.

I am a small forward because I can get open and find ways to get the ball and shoot it.

I’m on the “developmental” thing so we’re not technically a team..

Alana=5-shes tall and seems like she could be an aggressive player and can play close to the basket.

Karen=2- shes okay at shooting.

Jing=possibly 4- she always takes close shots and the ball always comes to her, so she occasionally rebounds it.

Me=5- I try to get the ball from the oposing team and get the ball to someone who can shoot

Ryan=2- He can make a shot from almost anywhere on the court, and is not intimidated by the other team

Koroush=3- He can take shots from inside the key, not much outside, and he can jump to get the rebound from other players

I would be 1 because i take the ball of the court and initiates offense.

Ryan would be 5 because he is the tallest and rebounds the ball.

stephanie would be 2 because she always shot the ball and 2 is the shooting guard.

zach would be 3 because he is good at defense and he plays the ball well.
