What are the right shoes

All the shoes in this picture makes good basketball shoes. There are many different kinds of basketball shoes all over the world. Some expensive, some cheap. Some look really nice and some look okay. But the appearance of the shoes doesn't even help you during a basketball game. One of the main questions you should ask to have the right ball shoes to better your performance is something like the comfortability. You need to be able to move in it of coarse. Some things to look for is if it helps you run fast to your full ability, like it doesn't slow you down. Does it protect your feet? The right shoes help support your ankle and helping you to get less injured around your feet because your able to move all over. Are able to jump to the best of your ability? Shoes that you feel comfortable in makes you play the game without worrying about your feet. An example if your shoes to loose, or it's to tight. When your able to play knowing that your shoes is not preventing you from playing it helps in the long run. I worry sometimes about my own ball shoes I need to have the right ones that I feel good in playing in. I like to get shoes that don't get me distracted during the game. I'll even play in a certain shoe until it start to tear up in all directions. This tells me that this shoe good enough for me and that it was a part of my feet. It ripped because of all the movements I had put it through. But I also need to understand that the shoes don't make the man, the man makes the shoes!

Fearless

See this picture right here represents a whole lot. On the court you need to be fearless, can't be scared to face what you're up against. You need to pass defenders like it was nothing. The player is trying to dribble against the dog, it is like the dog is the gate keeper, and it keeps players from going on to the next side. The next side is of coarse the basketball net. No one plays the same opponent over and over again, that's why you treat everyone like the same person. There no better. You got to be fearless! There many different kinds of players some are muscular, some tall, some are just really huge. If you want to become a basketball player things like this can't scare you. That's why I play with all my heart and go all out. In order to be the best, you got to play like the best. I'm ready for it, show me my next opponent!

A Gift Only from God

This poster says vision and under the qoute says what God has intended for you goes far beyond anything you can imagine. This is from Oprah Winfrey. This is true inspiration for me, both in basketball and in life. I like how the player is sitting on the bench and is in a deep thought. The sun is also shining on him from the window. It is like God is putting things in his head on what he wants him to do on the court and with basketball. You're receiving a vision from up above from the most high. It touches me because I love to focus on basketball and especially God. He tells me what to do. I can pray to him each day for help and he will give it to me. Every time that I see improvement in my game, I thank God because it was all the work of him. He gives me the strength each day to play basketball, work hard at it, and the desire to achieve greatness in basketball. This is one thing I think on the court and that is for God to give me a sign, a VISION!

It Started

Yes, it started the NBA. Finally the long wait for the season to kick off. Last night it was a good start Boston Celtics defeating the Cleavland Cavaliers, Lakers beating the Clippers, Wizards defeating Dallas, and also Portland defeating Houston. It was a good start and you can tell that many were watching. This year it is any one's game. The NBA title is up for grabs by almost a lot of different teams. Close call to who will be receiving MVP. Even who's going to be in the all-star game. Many talented players, people finally going back to their dominate ways and a lot of teams seeking to improve from last year. Each game this year is going to be interesting. I haven't chosen my team yet but, my man always will be Kevin Garnett. Of coarse I enjoy seeing other players. Let's find out what happens when the season ends!

Oppurtunity Being Wasted

I need to head to the gym everyday and when I can't work out. I can't let this picture represent me. A dead court to me means opportunities being wasted. Everyday when I'm not on the court someone out there is getting better than. I have to use every opportunity that i get because when there gone the could be gone forever. Make them happen that's what I say because not every one can get some great opportunity that's why I'm going to work for mine. I need to strive and act like if I don't have I can't keep going on. Basketball has become apart of me and it's to late to let it go. No more letting easy things go past me. I have to stop it and take whats mine!

Another good Motivation

Another good motivation for me that it says here is aim high and I can't figure out whats on the bottom. Aim high just itself says a lot to me. When you come into a game you just play you don't think. Thats okay but, what are you trying to achieve, what are you proving? When I come to court I need to aim high like what I want to do in this game for example score over 25 points, get 8 rebounds, 10 assists, win the game, or even get mvp. Like the post under this one says I have to excel and in order to do that I have to step into the game and aim high. When you miss what you were expecting you shouldn't worry because you usually fall on a step that you haven't taken yet. What I mean is that most likely something good will happen. I need to try my best and try to get to my goal over come all obstacles.

Back to Ball motivation

This picture says excel and under it says dare to be your best. This tells me when I'm on the court I have to excel past everyone who's there and stand out. It like everyone is a light bulb and to be the best I have to shine the brightest. I like how it says dare because a lot a players are scared to take over on the court especially when your team is loosing. I don't want to be that can of player I have to take chances and take risks because this is the only way I will get better. You have to go past what you are and head into greatness. Even little things like practice when the crowds not there I have to put more work in to what I do. To excel in practice, I have to show the coach that I want to get better and i need to put a lot more effort in to training. This picture speaks to me, the player in it that's holding the ball dared to dunk on some one even though he could mess up because the defender is going up on him. He's taking chances. I know when i game comes up I will be ready because when the coach puts me in I will be great, I will EXCEL!

Schemes and Tropes in Advertisement

The device that is being used here is a hyperbole because it exaggerates what is being said. They don't grow ketchup, there saying we do the best and only use the best to make Heinz ketchup.

The device that is being used here is i think a simile because the organization WWF is referring the world to ice cream. Because of what we do to the earth causing global warming the planet is melting just like an ice cream. Also irony because the world is not literally melting but global warming is causing everything to start fading away.

The device that is being used here is a hyperbole because this ad tells viewers that when you have a slurpee from 7 Eleven, you will get an intense brain freeze that even freezes your hair. This is not to be taking literally because 7 eleven is telling customers that this slurpee is really good for cooling off on hot days.

The device that is being used here is i think a hyperbole again because no one has hair like this. But it saying we can even turn really bad frizzes into nice beautiful unfrizzed hair. Also whats being used is litoties.

The device that is being used here is i think personification because they are saying you can go beyond the hand to hand game rock paper scissors. You can actually play it using rock, paper, and scissors.
