Professional Basketball…It’s a dream that many of us have, but it seems, only a select few, ever accomplish, or many of us die trying. It has always been my dream to make it to the NBA, and like many of you, I’m still in that process. You don’t have to have all the high-flying accolades to play pro basketball as you all may think. I think you need just a few things. The first, and MOST IMPORTANT thing you need, is a NAME. It’s imperative that you establish a name for yourself. You’ll go nowhere in pro basketball if you haven’t established a name for yourself. Establishing a name is not easy; it’s very difficult for several reasons. But it’s easily achievable if you set your mind to it. You do this by simply showing them your heart, your determination, your speed, your agility, and your will to merely take over a game. All it takes to succeed in basketball is the mental capacity to have confidence in yourself; to know that you can hit that free throw; to know that you can steal that ball; and to know that you can hit the game winner. If you have confidence in your game, coaches see that, and they value that. Those are players that coaches look for.

A wise man once said, “I’d rather have a player who makes my team great, than to have a great player.” Which one are you? It’s important you ask yourself that. You don’t have to be MJ, and you don’t have to be Kobe to make it to the league. Not just the NBA, but to any league. There are thousands, and thousands, of teams all over the world, and I can guarantee you, that one of those teams need a player like yourself, but many people sit back and let agents do their work for them, or they just reminisce about what they “could have” been. YOU…YOU have to put your time and effort into the gym and into your game in order to achieve perfection. Every aspect of an NBA player’s game is perfect. It’s perfect because they’ve worked hard to get where they are. So…this is for all you nameless ballers, who have gone un-noticed. Not just those looking for professional jobs, but those looking for a chance to play, and a chance to expose themselves. I’ve teamed up with Sylita, and her and I together, are putting our knowledge, and our experiences together to help YOU. Ultimately, YOU are your agent. Everything they do, you can do; it just takes a little more work, and maybe a little more investment of your time and money. Our sole purpose is to point all of you in the right direction. We’re here to bring all forms of basketball directly to YOU! We ask for your feedback to improve what we lack, and we’ll do our best to meet all your needs. Continue to work hard, and we will continue to keep everything as updated as possible.

“You never fail, until you quit trying.”

Good Luck,

Mike Crowe & Sylita Thomas
