ianpaulbeatingo Yes, short people do very good in basketball. In fact, they hold the most important position of the game which is the point guard. They direct the plays and the tempo of the team. They are also trained to be the outside shooters as well.

Name Brand Workout clothes, or regular?

kris55 @kris55 (848) • Canada 31 Dec 06

Do you need to buy adidas/nike for work out clothes, or can it just be regular no name sweats? What about when buying for your kids? Do you like to make sure they have all the popular brands? Or do you get whats on sale?

ianpaulbeatingo I go for the cheaper brands but not the cheapest because I want a little quality too. Of course if you buy the popular/expensive ones, you're sure of the quality if you can afford it.
