[dvdylan]

Its easy, dont smoke, dont drink, play every day, have the attitude and make sure you want it more than any other guy out there, then you'll be the greatest ever.

[TheGuanajuatoKid]

@dvdylan sir... u just inspired me, but not for the game of basketball,for skateboarding and the reason why i clicked on this video was because alot of people tell me that i should be a basketball player cause of my size and my speed but basketball is not my favorite sport and for skateboarding, since i was 7 years old, i always wanted to ride a skateboard and become a pro skateboarder, and i was thiking about quiting it, but once i saw ur comment, i got insprired, for dat, i will subscribe to u

[dvdylan]

@TheGuanajuatoKid All good, thanks for the subscription, good luck with your skateboarding!

[TheGuanajuatoKid]

@dvdylan no.... thank u :)

[BMinhas24]

anyone else notice he keeps stepping backwards than walks forward repeatedly??

[MTHvideos]

man his tips are great, thats what nba players did b4 they went to the nba, maybe he's not at nba 'cause he started with a advanged age, or maybe its not a god's plan for him.

[ddarkvader]

what did he do wrong to u?

[vollannat]

You cant get to the NBA unless your black.

[tagueulejfta]

[redskinfan17]

He's probably faking it, if he is your all dumbasses

[ppo0po0]

EXPOSURE

[littleai95]

I was a pointguard i started basketball at age 8 so i was bad. Practiced hard 2-6 hours a day and soon i was an amazing passer i was a threat at scoring and college recruites looking at me. I was short in high school only 5 foot 4. But i was so used to making big plays i got a chance and now im on Divison 1 Basketball level. Going for NBA and Go Duke!

[NBALOVER15]

@littleai95 are u black and tell me ur name so when u join the league i already know u before u get famous

[SSJ4000JalinFalcon]

@littleai95 wish best of luck

[REPUBLICAN92661]

doubt it unless you're black.

[ddarkvader]

you r a racist

[REPUBLICAN92661]

ok then you explain to me how blacks make up 14% of the population but more then 90% of people in the NBA are black?

[ddarkvader]

i wish u were black because u dont know how it feels

[REPUBLICAN92661]

im not racist.

[ddarkvader]

[REPUBLICAN92661]

[vidsindahouse]

[ddarkvader]

[bballplayers1]

[MRbballLover]

that dosent mather, just because you come from europe or some other placec doesent mean you dont have hoops! no matter where you from, you can allways make it!

[Exessen]

Hell yeah!

[Talataur]

Anyone who would wanna make it to the NBA should realize that there's alot of competition out there. There's tons of people out there who would love to make it to the NBA.

I once read this line that indicates it well: Every day that you don't work on basketball, other people are improving when you're not. You have to work on basketball every day if you want to be good enough.

Don't make it you're plan A tho, cause betting on being an NBA player is not a pension plan lol :P

[MRbballLover]

ok, i only have to say, i was pretty negative to the letter that you wrought! but then i read the line some times, and it started to make sence, and your totally right!:d

PEACE MAN;) thanks for the line;)

[cardude500]

yeah lebron and dwight didnt go to college. but they have changed the rules now. you have to go to college now. its and nba rule.

[fireware909]

Kobe, lebron first comes to mind

[ProlVlaster]

[ddarkvader]

[0reggie9]

[TANMANtv]

[l0l0ser]

[iversonfansdee]

Dream on until your dreams are on

[QZone414]

I gotta knock down (most times). My, weakness is definitely dribbling.

[iversonfansdee]

[scrubbabubba]

dwyane wade?

[lessler16]

Dreams can come true..

[videomaker74]

Guss i watched this video and now im playing for denver nuggets

[ddarkvader]

who are u? you arent a nba player

[videomaker74]

@ddarkvader it was a joke take it easy if i was in the nba wold i have watched this video

[kkjaznkennygmail]

lmao ur a starcraft player that "plays in the nba"

[chamberlain100]

hahahaha he cant stay still

[dylndr]

if it's all about exposure then why don't streakers get into the NBA?? I think NBA scouts would really remember those people when the draft comes.

[henyoarcher]

why would tell us how to become an nba player if your not an NBA player? you should tell us what is the ratio of getting into NBA league...that would be like1/10000...

[NBAfan1993]

ok ok ok if its that easy, why didnt he go to the nba???

[javaleira]

do u have to go to a american college to enter the nba??

[jllucero1]

No, but you have to be at least 19.

[famousfahad]

no you do not have to go to college to go to the nba but you have tp be 18 years or older but practice

[xTheBlackCatxd]

so what if a person or other races besides

American,European,Chinese wanna enter

do they just like sign a form and Voila your in or what?

[iJuice08]

You don't have to, but it would be a plus, seeing how sports are much bigger in America.

[sammeboy96]

i'm eropean and thanks for the tips i'll get in the NBA!

[ilovecoke23]

and your name is?

[fashwayze21]

how do u not know what exposure is?? hes saying if your good, you got to be recognized, show everyone what you can do, prove to them your good enough. thats exposure, being noticed, being heard.

[rnelson734]

ok heres how to go to the NBA... work hard. school you have to do good, and basketball. you have to make basketball your life. the only thing you love and just keep working at it. But you cant be an average player you have to let everyone know who you are. You have to be known

[yankeesowens]

this guy isnt even a professional and hes telling us how to get into the nba

[strikebandit]

what kinda question is that

you try hardest you can do and you have some talent then you get in there.

even if you try your bbbbest if u have no talent u go home

[callmelorenz]

He stutters alot

[raidabro]

yea he duz stutter alot
