Basketball simulation games
« on: Tue, 11 September 2012, 11:54:08 »
My 12-year-old son has started a basketball workshop, and he is just a beginner/novice.

Are there any good free or cheap computer games that he can play, either download or online, that would help him understand strategy and timing?

PS - in a way this is stupid because the whole idea of signing him up was to get him up and out and off the computer!

Just show him old clips of the Bulls during their 3-peat x2 years =)  Lots of good pick and roll, role players, the best basketball players of all time, etc.  YouTube can teach anything!

"Watch" is the problem here.

He needs to have to "Do Something" at least.
