Point

A point guard is often called the floor general because he is supposed to be a the mini coach on the floor. His traditional role to is to distribute the ball and to torch opposing teams from the outside. But this is all in the past now. Look at the atypical point right now. They drive in the lane, they score at will and they may not the top assist leader of the team. I so disappointed cause that is my favorite position in the whole team. Anyways, my favorite point of all time is John Stockton. He makes the game look so easy. He is not a flashy player but always get the job done. He has done it all. All time assist leader, been on all NBA first team, all NBA defensive teams, NBA all star, Olympic medalist and is one of the 50th Greatest players in the NBA history. The only regret I can think of is that he did not win a ring. Its a pity that he was defeated twice but the mighty Bulls led by none other than Jordan himself. Stockton had that composure about him. I guess that is like what is expected of a point. Like all Greats, he did not get there but luck. He did it through hard work, determination and through a love for this very game. I look up to him. Anyways, another point I look up and adore is my main man Frederick Phua. He is one of the guys that just does not like to lose as much I do. Most of the times more than me of course. As a player, I have learned more from him than anyone I ever knew. Off court, he taught me friendship and what it meant to be a big brother. He taught me all the intangibles like doing your very best, not giving up and much more. Fred, if you are reading this, well don't get too big head after reading this. I respect you ok. I just going to keep beating you in one thing I do best. Studying. And of course I will make it to the IMF I promise. I want to make more $$ than you. I don't care. Friends forever ok. Peace.
