Basketball Offensive Skill Development .
Well in basketball offense simply means to attack the basketball rim of the opponent and score the basket.
Hence your ability to attack the basket and be successful attacking your opponent's basket greatly depends on your preparation as individual and as a team before the game.
After you have developed your scoring ability of the basketball, that still is not enough to make you a good offensive player on the team.
As a basketball player, it is necessary that you should understand your role on the team and play your part the right way.
Just think with me for a second, if everyone on the team is a good scorer of the basketball then it is a fact that no one would pass the ball to is team mate, anyone with the ball would just take the shot or go for the layup.
This is why as a player you must know and understand what you are needed to do in the game when you are on the floor offensively.
same reason why all the players on the court do not have the same skills or height and speed. if every one on the team where to be the same in skills, then it is for sure they would have so many offensive and defensive weaknesses in it.
WHAT IS MY ROLE???
In the game of basketball there can be only 10 player on the court at any given time, 5 on each side.
These 5 players have different role and position numbers(1-5) to play on the team. and if they all do their various jobs well in their various position, then the team would most probably come out victorious.
These positions played by basketball player on the team are:
1- no 1 (point guard)
2- no 2 (shooting guard)
3- no 3 (small forward) ALSO guard
4- no 4 (power forward)
5- no 5 (center)
1. No 1 the Point guard Position:
Some say this is the most important position in any basketball team, hence you can tell that who ever is playing this particular position on any basketball team has to be very skillful.
Skills required to have so as to become a prolific point guard in the game of basketball are a lot. some of which we would mention now
skill required for no 1 point guard position:
i. ball handling skills (dribbling skills)
You are the ball handler, controlling the basketball at all times, hence one must have a very good ball handling skills and also various types of dribbling skills to get out of situations in the game of basketball. Reduce the amount of turnovers by making the right plays.. for more on ball handling go to link ----->GO TO LINK HERE
ii. agility and speed:
No matter how good your handling skills are, you still have to be quick and agile on your feet. you have to be able to dribble and move at speed much faster than even game speed at times. and your speed is just as important as your dribble. Even though you do not have to be the fastest player on your team, still you have to be fast enough as a point guard in the game of basketball..
iii. mind set and quick decision making:
As a basketball point guard, you should know what the coach wants from you and what the your team players are expecting from you at all times. Even though the coach in not on the floor, the point guard is like the playing coach on the floor.SEE THE FLOOR, READ THE SITUATION AND MAKE THE PLAY. hence it is very important that decisions made by the point guard on plays should be quick and precise. Also making the right play at any time during your offensive possession of the basketball reduces the amount of turnovers and increases your chances of scoring the basketball..
iv. flexibility:
As a point guard in the game of basketball, one must be flexible in the game regarding your ability to sport out a missing link in the opponents defense during the play as it goes on. Sometimes certain plays are decided and in an instant a hole in the defense is sported, regardless of the play established earlier, the point guard should know how to exploit these scenario during the game time.
v. ability to grow:
Since no payer is perfect in the game of basketball, the point guard even though having all those incredible attributes still needs to evolve into a much better player than he is. So it is important that he should become someone who would be willing to take good advice, train extra, do those things required of a leader in the game. That and only that is what would separate you from other players and other point guards in the game of basketball. Always coming back to the game stronger and better.
2. No 2 the Shooting guard.
As the name sounds, this is most likely one of the best shooters on the team who would be playing this particular position.
The work of the shooting guard is not just to shot the basketball on offense, but also to create an opening lane for the pass by getting open at all times.
This may sound simple enough but just think about it. you as a shooting guard are never left alone because your opponent knows how dangerous you could be if left alone on offense. Hence it is only normal that you would have to run around non stop during the game just to get a pass or even a cleaner look at the basket rim without being blocked while taking the shot.
Skills required are:
i. Shooting skills
As a basketball shooting guard, it is obvious you should be very skilled in the art of shooting the basketball. Check out the link for more on shooting the basketball--->GO TO LINK HERE
ii. Stamina
Since you would be running around all the time just to get a good pass during the game, your stamina should be exceptional and one of a kind in other to keep up with the game or even make a basket shot. Your legs are your greatest weapon as a shooter, hence develop your lower body strength and stamina too.
3. No 3 the Small forward.
The no. 3 is also called a guard in the game of basketball. they are really very skillful an all rounded player that could do almost anything on the court. They have very high offensive mind set, and are usually very aggressive to the basketball rim to score the basketball. They do the little most important work like setting screens for shooting guards and point guards, going after the offensive rebound, getting open near the basket rim, leading the fast break... etc.
As you can see what kind of duty is demanded of the small forward in the game, the amount of skills is just as equal. Should be a well rounded off basketball player, willing to get in between big guys and get rebounds, i.e. fearless, should be very athletic for running the fast breaks and should be a very good team players knowing when to get open and where, when to set a screen etc.
4. No 4 the Power Forward.
In the game of basketball, most of the basketball teams always have at least 2 big men on the team, one of them is more skillful than the other i.e. has multiple skills like dribbling ability shooting skills etc.
The one with the more skills is made the power forward on the team during the game. apart from his size and offensive rebounding ability, he can spread the floor because of his skills to do more than post-up and score the basketball. Some times they even spread the floor up to 3point line. and they also give good screens in other to cause a miss-match among the defensive team or simply to get the guards open during the game.
5. No 5 the Center.
Just as the name sounds, this is the center of the team during the game, that is the heart of the defense and major factor in offensive attack in the game of basketball.
If the big man on the team is ON then the team looks bigger than it actually looks. rebounds on both ends a very important, hence the big man job is to make certain that he gets as many rebounds as he possibly can both offensively and defensively.
Being the big man on the team, he his required to be strong and able to hold his grounds against other big man on the opponents side. he should be able to finish under the rim with little or no problem using various basketball foot work, basketball post-up moves and basketball fake moves in his/her possession. also he should understand the act of pick and roll in the game of basketball. It is a very good way of getting the basketball near to the basket rim and also creating an open lane for yourself.
So now that we have discussed all the possible 5 position on a basketball team during a game, then it is time to know your position and play your part on the team.
Do not force situations by trying to do others work or by trying to do it all alone. no one likes a ball hug. even ball hugs don't like other ball hugs. lol
These players who are capable of playing multiple positions in the game have worked really hard on it, and they are trusted by their coaches and team mates to play any position they are given the right way it is meant to. without over lapping or trying to do it all.
Hence it is not playing 2 position at once, it is simply Switching positions, and doing the job the right way.
Now that it is clear that you have understood how to play your role on the team, you would find it easier and win more games by simply sticking to the script and playing your role.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL OUT THERE AND
STAY TUNED FOR MORE.

Doomsday would murder Hulk. He is as strong (if not stronger) and fast as superman, which can be why
he couldn't have just chucked HIM into space. Hulk may well be strong adequate to afford to be retarded, but doomsday is really a beast. To make him strong and tough, scintists that were trying to make a him into a superweapon (and we all know how THAT turns out), put him on a essentially the most hostile earth at any time. Right after he was killed, they resurected him and did it once again and once again, until nothing could hurt him. Unfortunatly, Doomsday didn't like that so
he murdered them all. He now has an intense
hatred of men and women in general. Yeah, the hulk has destroyed some stuff, but when doomsday crash landed on the planet similar to earth, but more advanced, he punched everything until there was practically nothing taller than him.
Doomsday would speedily rip hulk in half, like superboy-prime would.
