Inspirations of MJ


One of many Michael Jordan’s quote isI play to win, whether during practice or a real game. And I will not let anything get in the way of me and my competitive enthusiasm to win.” That quote is one of my favorite one from him because it’s just like me. When he says he will always try to win that’s how I feel when I play basketball. Michael Jordan was a great player maybe one of the best. He could dunk, shoot, pass; defend, block, and many more. He was always the best basketball player when he as younger but when he stopped working hard other kids that worked hard and tried out for the high school team he didn’t make the team. He was so disappointed that he thought he was just going to give up basketball forever, but he didn’t. He worked super hard all day every day. He never stopped practicing and when it came to the next years tryouts he made it without a doubt. He played astonishing that season and furthermore. After he was drafted 3rd out of the college of North Carolina, Michael was a top pick for the NBA. Michael Jordan was drafted by the Chicago Bulls in 1984. M.J. won 6 championships as a Bull and was voted MVP 5 times. Michael had 32,292 points in his whole career. When I grow up I would want to play in the NBA and win a title for my team. Michael Jordan is a great leader and a role model. He is mine and many others role model.

Big Blue Basketball

Authors Note: I thought like I didn't have a lot of information to give of the people, but I mostly wrote about it because Kentucky is my favorite NCAA basketball team.




The Kentucky Wildcats have won many champions in their seasons. They have always had excellent players come in and out of the University and move onto the NBA. In the 2011- 12 the Wildcats started the season great as ranked number 3 but as the season went on they went all the way up to number 1. When Kentucky played Indiana and all threw the game was a really tough game. At the last seconds Indiana chucked up a three and just got it to fall. That lost took them down to the 2nd place with only one lost. The Wildcats have beat a many other teams but has a lot more to go. In the NCAA Tournament Kentucky will go far into the tournament and will get as far as into the Final Four and possibly go to the Championship. The Wildcats could just easily win because their team is so stacked with good players. Three of their starters are freshman but yet they are some of the best. Anthony Davis is a strong candidate for defensive player of the year. Anthony has the most blocks in the NCAA this year Michael Kidd-Gilchrist an excellent offensive with an average of 14.4 points. Last the last freshman is Marquis Teague as there point guard but he’s not one of their top scorers but he’s still growing to be a better player.

The Michael Jordan Poster


There I was Michael in a dark lonely box rolled up like a sushi roll. When all of a sudden I heard someone pick my box and I up and started attaching a paper substance over the box. It was a long wait until anything happened to me. One day I was picked up and the paper was unraveled it when finally light creeping into the box as I saw a teenager named Kevin glimmering eyes peek into the box. He was so happy he got such a great Derrick Rose poster like me. That same day he went to his bedroom and put me up on the wall. I never felt so good stretching out on that wall.  That night I could hear the crickets chirping and the owls hooting.
In the morning Kevin's mom came up to wake him up but it took him a while to actually get up. When he finally dragged himself out of bed his mom had made him a big nice breakfast. Living at the Durant's house is the best. I always inspire Kevin to be a better basketball player and a better person, it feels like I am just talking with him whenever he looks at me. One day Kevin got some other posters like LeBron James, Chris Paul, and Kobe Bryant. They were all so nice and we all loved to talk. One day Kevin packed us up in another box and we weren’t opened for a long time but when we were we knew we had a new home.
