In basketball, what does it mean to "play physical"?
To play physical is to take the space before the opposing team does and holding your ground. Your basketball instinct and court awareness should tell you where you should be balancing of the floor. On defense, you should immediately "square" your opponent and know where he is most comfortable. Right handed guards tend to like to dribble right. Post up, right handed forwards/centers tend to like to camp underneath the hoop to their strong hand. Your job is to defend their comfort zones and hold your ground no matter what. Do this, simply get there before they do and force them to use other space. If the guards are boxing you out and getting better position on you, they are simply beating to the spot. A good way to take up space on defense is to use your legs and foot work. If you're standing too straight up and down, you're not taking up maximum floor space. Feet wide, hands out, and deny your opponent their comfort zones. You will force the offensive into turning over the ball and playing out of control (and will get the calls in your favor). A little trick you can practice if your battling for position is to pivot through your defender using your foot to the spot you battling for. Impress your coaches with these fundamentals and congrats on making the team.
What is your opinion's on physical fighting? Is it necessary? ?
I think that fights are important. A "fight" is something in which your intentions run headlong into the intentions of the other person. I think that people who say that fighting is unconditionally bad don't understand. Is it a fight that you or your opponent have in order to understand each other, or is it a fight where your opponent bullies you? There is a great difference between the two. Of course, it's possible that it's true what they say, that violence is not necessary. However, I think this is something said by people who have had the experience of fighting and then become adults. It is different when people, in spite of the fact that they have never had a fight, idealistically say "Fighting is bad. Fist fights are meaningless." In the midst of fear, there are emotions of restraint with which we weave through that fear, and also emotions that search for freedom. In the process of defending your tiny slice of turf and the small amount of freedom that you confront with all your might, if you say things like "This is such a small matter," "It's a foolish thing to fight," and "It doesn't matter what you do," if you experience it and feel it and then don't feel that fighting has any meaning, then you are just stupid. People nowadays, fight with their hearts you know (Ex: Bullying)? Those kind of scars take alot longer to heal than physical scars. P.S Just don't kill your opponent.
