Yo man listen to me, I'm going to be serious here with you so pay attention. I started playing ball last year around March. When I started I thought I was good, man I was so stupid back then I didn't know what ball was. Now I got 4 medals and a trophy sitting right in my room. Every school I go to I've literally owned every kid their at ball, you know what they still say, YOU SUCK , YOUR PURE FLUKES. Well guess what those people weren't the only people that were hating, My dad thinks I will never have the potential to join the NBA or the NCAA, he says I'm not good enough and NEVER will be. My mom keeps worrying. The other day I almost broke my arms, and had them wrapped. I came back and she's like what happened "I fell and almost broke em" , She said "Good for you, that's what happens when you play ball". But you know what keeps me going, it's what kept you going HATERS, and motivation. You have to LOVE proving people wrong, I love doing that which makes me better. If I never did that I wouldn't be playing ball or be here.
I had a tourney 2 weeks ago, my dads like don't join man you'll just lose all your games like last year. Well that motivated me, I went and won 3 out of 4 games and came in 3rd. When I got back he asked me if I won and he started laughing. I said we won 3 out of 4 games. He just kept quiet and drove me home. So all I can tell you is MOTIVATION.

look listen carefully rite now, cuz this is the only advice i can give u if u want to ever be anythin....if u got no SELF-CONFIDENCE u got NUTHIN......u understand that? cuz if u dont get that then kiss ure hoop dreams goodbye.....if u dont KNOW that u can do it, then dont try, basketball is game of go hard or go home....if u act like this pack up ure bags guy and just go home already, cuz this mental weakness dont help u at all....

Dude all of us are telling you something write it down and memorize it. In basketball you don't NEED to be strong physically. Being strong mentally overpowers physical power.
