DAKILANG BALLER. Why Basketball? Why not?

Hello ballers! I am Dakilang Baller. I am Filipino and this is my first blog. 

Okay. Why basketball? Well, my answer would be, "why not?" As we all know, Philippines is a basketball loving country. Most of us love to play this sport due to its thrill and competition. That soothing sensation after making a shot keeps us all interested in the sport. 

From all walks of life, basketball is there. It promotes a sense of unity and passion not just for the game but our lives too. 

We, Filipinos, are admired not because of out height, ofcourse, but for our heart. No matter how big the giants are in the court, WE NEVER BACK DOWN. Be it "pisohay," "coke-ay," or just a regular game, we give it our all. This is just how we're built.

I created this blog because of one reason only. That is to promote the sport that we love.

I'll be providing insights, comments, game inputs, training regimens, and all other information. I'll also include promotions, advertising and interviews. 

So, watch out Philippines! Dakilang Baller is now signing in!

Basketball - A Tool for Christ

H ave you noticed that every before and after games, players huddle up and form a circle while holding their hands up high with heads down? Their praying. Asking God for guidance and safety. Why? Faith. Faith is what drives them throughout the game. As the term goes, "Salig Lang," which means Trust in the Lord and just leave it to him. T here are players in different places who set up pick up games for other players and in turn, make it a tool to spread the holy word. They are such good examples for all of us. I went to these sessions and indeed it enlightened me, as we felt the presence of the Lord around us. I could see that the players are finding their way to the Lord.

What Coaches want to consider about training a player.

Okay. If you're a Coach, Trainer, or just a Regular player who wants to improve in the game of basketball, you have to consider these things: Acceptance, Training and Humility. Let's first start with Acceptance . Let's learn to accept that there is no perfect player and we are all destined to improve. So, don't go yapping around telling everyone that you're a "Complete" player because you're not. I repeat, YOU ARE NOT. Just around the corner, There's always someone BETTER than you. Accept the fact that we are all students of the game and the game is our teacher. Next, Training. What training do you need? Take note: NEED . Not, WANT. If you need strength because your too weak, then do strength training. If you're slow, then do speed drills. There are various training regimens that you can take to increase your level of play. But, ofcourse, you have to gain playing experience and put the training to play - that is your gauge. In our ...
