Basketball

Lately, we have been doing some persuasive writing in class and i wrote about basketball players and why we should play basketball.

Basketball 

Do you like basketball? I do like it because you can dunk on people and smack the ball out of their hands. But when you shoot the ball in the hoop it makes cool swish noises. Players from the NBA are so good and Steph Curry is so good because he can make heaps and heaps of three-pointer lines and Kobe and LeBron and them can dunk on people and stuff. I think basketball is one of the best games ever because you can be fit and healthy.

Imagine someone can dunk from the three-pointer line. That would be so insane if someone could do that. When someone's ankle breaks the defender and then they slip or drip or something. That would be so funny and when you dunk on someone and you shout like a lion or like hello beast. It feels so cool that you really want to do it again.  

I like smacking the ball out of their hands because when the shooter shoots and then you jump and smack the ball out of their hand. it's so fun and when someone tries to dunk and then you run behind them and then you jump and hit the ball it's so fun when you do that to the player who has the ball.  

When you shoot the ball in the hoop and you make this cool as smooth swish in the hoop it makes this cool as sound and when you throw the ball where the hoop and your teammate jumps up and dunks it in the hoop and that called an alley hoop and its so cool to watch how they jump and dunks it in the hoop.  

Summary 

Basketball is fun because you can dunk on people and swat people and it's good for your health and fitness. That's why I think everyone should play basketball.
