Isaac Zhodzishsky- In my basketball team, we have more strenghts then weaknesses. One strenth is that we have good team work, no one on our team is a ballhog. Also we are lucky to have athletic players on the team who aren't lazy. A weakness we have is that one of our players isn't very involved she rarely plays. Also on our team we often lose the will to keep score of our games.
I believe my team's strengths are that we have great team work and we communicate well together. However, sometimes we argue and dribble too much causing a fault in our team
My teams greatest strengths are passing and shooting. We move the ball around a lot and get it to everyone on the team which definately helps us get to the basket faster. Also, taking a bunch of shots guarantees us more baskets! Some of the weaknesses of our team are we don't get back on defense fast enough which gives the other team an offensive advantage and we don't box out so we don't get as many rebounds as we should.
David Levine I believe that my team has a few major strengths that allow us to win, and a few weaknesses that need to be corrected. One strength is that we are very good at moving to open space. This allows for our team to move the ball efficiently and keep the defense off balance. Another strength is that on defense, we are very good at keeping ourselves between our man and the basket. This allows us to be able to slow down the other team on offense, and create more turnovers. One weakness that we have is that we do not shoot the most effective shots at times. If we shoot, lets say, two pointers instead of threes, there is a better chance we could make it and help the team win, instead of just shooting threes and missing. One final weakness that we have is our rebounding. On offense, if we miss a shot, the other team always gets the ball off of the miss, and then score points off of the turnover. If we can improve our rebounding, it can help our team score more points, no matter if we initially make or miss the shots we take, and, on defense, will help us hold the other team to fewer points, as they will have possession for a shorter time.
James Hurst: I feel my teams greatest strengths are our shooting and rebounding because we are all pretty tall and can get the ball back. our weaknesses are moving without the ball and communication.
1. passing and getting the ball around the court to everyone
2. spacing ourselves and making sure that everyone on the opposing team is covered by one of our players
weaknesses:
1. we have not gotten to know eachother on a personal basis. i am embarrassed to admit that i dont know one of the boys name from my team.
2. because we were just a few kids thrown together, we have not had time to really find out what eachothers skills are. but we kind of self coach and do our own thing that happens to work for the most part
We are currently in the basketball unit. I feel my team's greatest strengths are Byron and I. We make good passes with each other and make nice runs. Our two weaknesses would be our overall height and shooting skills.
Jordan Pories I think my team (the cupcakes) have serious gatorade-ad potential: we can score points and we are really good at defense... unfortunately nobody is really tall enough to consistently get rebounds and only one person is good at ball handling so all we do is pass and shoot
Kalli Mays My team has strengths as well as weaknesses. our strengths are we are all open and we are good with ball handeling. These help us to be ready for the ball when it comes to us and we dont have many turnovers. our weaknesses are we dont shoot enough and we dont get many rebounds. this means we dont score alot of points each game and we cant have another chance to shoot when we dont rebound the ball.
John Minderman - I believe we have good team work and pass the ball well, though sometimes we miss too many shots. We are good have good sportsmanship.
Matt Wong On our team, our strengths are passing and moving the ball around to everyone. We get good shots, and make a lot of easy layups. But a weakness is our communication. We don't talk a lot, and sometimes our defense can be a little weak.
Johnathon Browning In our basketball team our strengths are that we communicate and we can move the ball around. We also try to take as much shots as we can. Unfortunately we aren't the best at shooting so we mostly loose. Also we aren't the best at defense which gives the other team more opportunities.
Nickalia Gibbs I think my baskeball team is better at the strenghs than weakness. one of the strength is that we all have great team work.The second strengths is that if anyone misses that basket we still are being positive .One of the weaknesses is that we don't communicate as much.The other weakness is that we move without the ball.
Alice Gindin- Our team's strength is passing and most of us are good at getting open. Our weakness is shooting, only one player is really reliable at shooting.
My basketball team is seriously buff. Obviously, are strengths are our huge biceps. We are very good at passing, and we have Felipe. Felipe can drive the ball very well. I think I saw him dunk one time. Our greatest weakness is likely our laziness, or my comically small size.
Dariush Kafashzadeh My team's strenghts are that we communicate well when we are playing the game. We are also a strong team which is good at passing and shooting.A weakness is that sometimes, certain players may hog the ball and not pass to other players and that sometimes we are not fast enough.
Lei Zeng- One of the strengths we have is that we have team work. But sometimes some of us just shoot the ball without thinking if there's any better ways to score. We also have good sportsmanship, which is very important in a game.
I feel that our team's biggest strengths is our ability to move the ball around and covering all the other players when on defense. However we need to work on our shooting skills and our rebounding to be a better team.
Mike Averguns~ strenghts: 1. we get along well and have good chemistry. 2. there is a balanced distrubution of height and skill. weaknesses: 1. sometimes we dont keep score. 2. we could have better ball movement
My teams strengths are getting the ball back after rebounds and passing. Although some of us do need to work on our shot, and look to pass before shooting, the passes we make are efficient ones.
I think that my teams biggest strength is ,mthat we have active and involved players who can move for the rebound and make the passes, but one of our biggest weaknesses is that we have one player who isnt involved, and we have very low accuracy when it comes to making shots. -Gwen
Venu Ganti-Late- In my basketball team, my teams greatest strengths are our ability to move quick, since we pass well and constantly hustle, and our communication, when we call out our team mates names, and use basketball vocabulary to communicate. However, my team does not shoot well, since most of us are inexperienced, and we rarely ever get the rebound, which in case is due to our height problem, and rebounding is essential, due to the fact that we can get the ball, and get more opportunities to score.
our teams weaknesse is that we dont really keep score, we just let other team tell us score. but we have good teamwork and good strategy which are killer qualities in a team daniel nordlander
My team is not very good at rebounding and cannot shoot very well, but we are good passers and hustle a lot. We are very good teammates and our teamwork is our greatest asset.
