Around 2-3weeks ago, i did this test. As you can see, it was to.....make 2 glasses filled with 10 litres each, i misunderstood the question as needing 2 glasses to have 10 litres in total but actually just 1 step short, so it is completed. In 10 minutes, i never finish such quiz or test before, maybe i have not done any but this time i suddenly amazed myself and thought "hey, i can actually do this kind of thing, this maths, logic kind of quiz", not to show how smart i am, just surprised that i can complete this in 10 minutes. Tomorrow......it's friday.......again.....just like any other week........another friday......another number 5.........another day before the weekends.......another weekly balling session. Not much to talk about........well last week i got to know the basketball term "triple threat" better. TRIPLE THREAT. there isnt another threat, there isnt a bigger threat. That is my advertisement lines for triple threat. Haha, simply in a stance, where you can pass, shoot, or drive. So, it is 3 threats to your defender. For a person who can do all 3 very well, there will be no other threat that can be more threathening than triple threat because you got to guard the player if he passes, or he start driving to the basket, or just shoot over you. The footwork, fundamentals and body language here plays a big role, in fact this is what fundamental basketball is all about if you do not talk about the teamwork, offensive and defensive plays yet. We will continue to work on the "Pick and Roll" and " option" offensive plays. Again, very basic, down to earth and have to do it because again, this is what basketball is about. It is about organising plays to maximise the possibility of open or easy shots, which you can see, you dont really see that in Singapore. Even Slingers are playing the "1 on 1" game, everyone just take turns to 1 on 1, take tough shots, get themselves trapped or double teamed easily because of bad movement, bad strategy and all those basic plays from the US colleges or the NBA, you just would never see them here, mysteriously, i do not know what these coaches are doing. That is why i called Singapore a third world basketball country. Finding people to play basketball is already limited, finding people to have good skills is even more limited and........finding people to play real, true and right basketball, I can tell u, try finding till your next life. Nothing offensive, but this is the truth, because again, Mr Soon tats fah, a design lecturer of my school, said that people always see the 1/3 of the iceberg which is above the water, there is 2/3 below the water which people did not see. Same thing goes here and everywhere else, they see a nice move by some well-known player, they just do it which they had no idea why, or the underlying factors that determined that this move is correctly executed. People just saw the iceberg above the water and copy what is there which is......what people think it is all about. That is why, you can actually get slapped directly, full palm on the face in a basketball game in singapore. Well, not once, but all the time. Stupid executions. Too bad, as I said earlier, in every field, people see 1/3 of the iceberg mostly. I mean things like this alot of times does not need to be a professional to know it. The rules are all wrong, or all kind of funny rules evolved. Well, not going to continue talking about this, I would end here. The final destination might not be an end, the path might just go round and round........yea....round and round. The same thing will happen again tomorrow but I can tell you, that is not deja vu, buddy. That is my philosophy
