Try watching it when you have free time on tv. If you see the body movements of the other players. Then when you practice youll have a better idea of what to do and can get more done in less time

I'm not sure how good you are at Basketball but how i got good is watching basketball. i'm not talking about street basketball or the Harlem Globetrotters, but real basketball such as the NBA. You watch them play and you see their skills/moves. You go out and you practice that move until it's perfect and that you can do it without embarrassing yourself on the court. But other than that practice makes perfect and there's no short cut. Get with your friends and play but play with someone that's better then you cuase that's the only way you're gonna improve. If you want something like winning a championship then you gonna have to work for it and that includes pain and sweat.

The quickest way to get better at bball is to grow to be 7 feet 5 inches tall. You won't be the best but you'll be better of course.

Play lots of NBA video games. Don't waste your time going out to the playgrounds to play real basketball. That's for chumps.
Pefect your moves on your PC. Create yourself as a player, and play MJ one on one... be sure to give yourself the maximum abilities in all areas (jumping, speed, shooting ability etc.), and you'll find that you can crush the great MJ at his own game.
Trust me, when you try out for the team, the coach will be amazed and impressed at how much time you spent sitting at your PC playing virtual basketball...
You'll have it made...and you won't even have to break a sweat.
And you can laugh at all those chumps who wasted their time playing on a real court... lol, suckers!
Good luck to you!!

go to as many camps and leagues as you can! also get a basketball hoop or go to the nearest park or school and shoot. Wanna get really good? do 100 lay-ups, 100 free-throws, 100 outsides shots. Believe me, do that, and i bet you will be great.
