That is when I started to develop the love for basketball. I wanted to be like Magic Johnson his approach to the game was smooth. He was very fundamental and he knew how to control the game. I played basketball all four years of my high school career and I loved every bit of it. When I had free time I would volunteer at the community to coach a youth 11-12 years old basketball team.
He is known as one of the best basketball players to ever play the game. The reason for this is his amazing moves, and dunks, and just ability and love for the game.

While watching the documentary Hoop Dreams, I have discovered this movie to be distinctly influential to the lives of many young men and women as it portrays the American dream. It involves two young men who reside in the housing projects in Chicago. Each has been given the great opportunity to attend a private school because of their phenomenal basketball skills.

Chris Paul showed the world what type of player he was going to be, collecting ten assists and playing to get his teammates in position to score (Wake Forest: Men's Basketball). His pass-first approach to the game was special in itself, but what separated him as a superstar was his ability to score, as well as see the floor as arguably the best passer on the floor at all times. CP3 is notorious for manufacturing baskets when there seems to be no holes in the defense.
“Mr. Duncan is an individual that does certain necessity’s on behalf of others in need, conducts service to the community as a whole, and is involving a risk to physical comfort, social stature, or quality of life” (Tim Duncan Biography- Bio. True Story). Not only does he commit to the community, but also on the basketball court, where he is respected by so many individuals.
