Clay, Bird, and other B-ball fans. - Bill - 04-03-2006
My 2 year old son seems to love basketball. Last month I couldn't channel surf for fear of passing a game and having him throw a fit because I wanted to watch something else. Now he is sleeping with his basketball. I'm not sure if this is normal behavior but I do know I'm not going to try and curtail it.
What would be the bestest way to nurture this newfound love of his, since I know little of the sport?

put up a goal in teh driveway. buy him "The Pistol: The Pete Maravich Story", he'll love it. show him how to dribble (finger tips only). he's a little young, but I was too wehn I started carrying a ball around with me everywhere I went.

I have a goal in the drive already, it was from the previous owner and I just haven't torn it down, and doesn't look like I will now. I was trying to show him how to dribble yesterday cept it's kinda like the blind leading the blind...><
that and now he wants to dribble it on the kitchen floor. :ct:
Glad to see it took you far..

If he's 2 buy him one of those indoor adjustable kid baskets.He will like dunking and you can show him how to shoot.If clays talking about the instructional videos Marivich made and not a movie about him that would be good.

So how many times have you actually broken your ankle attempting your crossover?
