Summer is 5 hours and minutes away!!

     After school gets out my family is celebrating by going to BHAC, (Beverly Hills Athletic Club). At BHAC there is swimming, tennis, a snack shack, basketball hoops, a playground, a gaga pit and a big wall that you can throw tennis balls at.  I have belonged to the club for 4 years. the best part is that you can go there with a guest. I like to have some of my friends there who are not members.


     Usually when I go to the club I hangout with my friends. I usually go swimming and play tennis with them. I also play wall ball, basketball and  soccer. Sometimes I text my friends to see if they're  going. Because it is a good way to know if their going or not and to encourage them to come. It is really boring if the club is empty. I look forward to seeing my friends tonight.

Congrats to Mr. Joe winning Michigan teacher of the year! Thank you for all you have done!

My Career I pad version continued...

Tuesday's post:

  As you saw in my last post I wrote about the NBA game on the Ps3, today I will be writing about the 2k game on the I pad! I made my player have ripped muscles, a brown goatee and brown dreadlocks because I picture myself in the future like that. I am not going to have ANY tattoos because they hurt when they get put on. My nickname is Clutch because I am good in end of game situations. I am putting my player at a shooting guard because I am good at shooting as well. A shooting guard is a player who shoots the ball often.

          I am picking my college to be Michigan State because I am going there for college as my first choice. Michigan State is known for their basketball team. I named myself Jake L****** because that is my given name. I also gave myself the number 22 because that is my favorite number. I chose the height 6'6'' because I think I will be that tall in the future.

Today's post:

    I played in the rookie showcase. (The rookie showcase is a game to determine what team you will be on in the NBA). I played very well, I scored 32 points, jumped and got 3 rebounds, made an effort and got 2 steals, passed the ball and had 5 assists. I think I played one of my best games in a long time. I had 3 draft interviews one from the Memphis Grizzlies, another from the Charlotte Hornets,(which is owned by my all time favorite player: Michael Jordan!) And the last one from the Chicago Bulls. It was a tough decision but in the end I got drafted by... The Chicago Bulls, I like the Bulls because they have Derrick Rose, Carlos Boozer and last but definitely not least Joakim Noah. I think a shooting guard like my player would fit in great with a team like that because they need an accurate shooting guard.

      In my very first NBA debut I played in the Bull's stadium and passed the ball a lot so I only scored 10 points, but I had 7 assists, most of them is where I would drive to the paint, and then get double-teamed  so they would leave D-Rose open downtown, so I would  drive then kick it out to him and he would make it! ( For those of you who don't speak basketball that means we played well!)  In that game my team played the New York Knicks. We lost because their team is stacked with players like Carmelo and Hardaway Jr. and they also have Amarie  Stoudmier so that is the only game I have played and so far, so good!

NBA 2k 15 IPAD VERSION

I named myself Jake L****** because that is my given name. I also gave myself the number 22 because that is my favorite number. I chose the height 6'6'' because I think I will be that tall in the future. I think my player is going to be similar to me. I like the I pad version more than the ps3 version because you can take your legacy with you!

NBA 2k 15 My Career


           For some of you who didn't know too much about the game NBA 2k 15, there is a really cool game feature/mode in the game called "My Career." If you would like to know how to build your legacy there is an excellent link here to a YouTube gamer named Chris Smoove: Here.

           Anyway, let me tell you about my experience in the game. You start out by naming your player, then  your position, desired team, your weight, height and nickname. Also, you can pick your muscle tone and a real life voice and face of yourself! The game system that I play on is a PS3, and you play in the rookie showcase to determine what team your on. You get interviewed by a team and you have to answer questions the GM  (General Manager) of that team asks you.

          From my opinion I think the game is very creative to put in this game feature. It is just fun to customize your player and upgrade your player to the best of its ability. It is also cool how you get to follow your player's career. You can choose from over a large variety of player features. That is why I like this game mode.

Basketball Tournament # 2



          This tournament is held in Whitmore lake, I think this tournament is going to be different from the last tournament I wrote about because my team is going to be playing for trophies. I also think we need to work better as a team, because in some of the Ypsilanti tournament games we didn't work so well as a team in the area of trust. My coach does a drill to work on trust with me and my team where one of my teammates, or me shoots free throws and you have to shoot 2 out of 3 or else the whole team including the shooter has to run! I am a pretty good free throw shooter because I have studied NBA forms such as Stephen Curry and Michael Jordan.

      I think that my team has a better advantage over the other teams because we have 6th-7th graders, and the tournament is against 5th-6th graders. We are quicker, better shooters and more experienced. We also have bigger guys on the rebounds to help get them. Also, I don't think the two 7th graders will be able to play at all because they are really experienced and the referees might think it is unfair to the other team if they have all 5th graders. We have a good team chemistry in the area of passing the ball. We are not selfish and we play good team basketball. I know for sure that my team has the excellent energy that we need to win the ultimate trophy!

      To get to the championship trophy, we will have to play good as a team and pass the ball as often as needed. We need to keep our eyes up incase there is a person open for an easy layup. If we win both of our first two games, depending on how much we win by, we will be ranked first, or second, seed. If we win one and lose one, we will be ranked 3rd or 4th seed. If we lose both, we will leave the tournament. So, it is win, or go home.  If we win both of our first games, if we are ranked, then we will be put into a playoff bracket and need to win as many games needed to win the trophy.

" Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships"

AHW


My current top 5 rappers


1.Eminem
2.Drake
3. Lil wayne
4. Big sean
5. snoop dogg

I think Eminem is my top choice because he expresses himself in his music. Also he is from Detroit!

I think Drake is # 2 because he always has a steady flow and raps about stuff he cares about,such as money

Lil Wayne earned number tres because he is a hip cool rapper and raps with a unique rhythm .

Big Sean earned # 4 because he raps with intensity. And he is also from Detroit.

Snoop Dog earned spot 5, I would of given him number two if he didn't talk about smoking so much.
