Team Spirit

After playing 2 different sports for continuous 2 days, one was playing basketball in midnight for 2 and a half hours, and another one was playing badminton in evening for 2 hours on the next day, I was very tired and felt the pain on some parts of my body and bone. Due to the tiredness, I thought that I could be easy to fall asleep. But, when I lay on my bed, I spent around half an hour to successfully go into dream.

I love playing basketball. Basketball is a team game, the spirit of teamwork is very important while playing. Every player who joins the game should know what is the role of each player, who is shooter and who is supporter. Actually this is not very important, everyone also can try to shoot the ball if there is a chance for the person. But the shooter needs to see whether there is a teammate under the basket to do the "Rebound". If the ball fails to go into the basket and rebound out, the teammate can immediately take back the ball rather than giving a chance for the opponents to grab the ball if no backup. When the ball carrier is blocked by the opponents and he is unable to move through them or shoot the ball, he should pass the ball to others. If he forcibly to go through the defense or take the risk to shoot the ball, the ball will be easy to drop on the opponents' hand.

No matter how strong a player is, the act of playing as "One Man Show" is prohibitive and will be hated by the teammates. Everyone in a team have to train the privity between each other to prevent the opponents from knowing the playing strategy on tournament. One person is impossible to complete all the tasks including carrying the ball, running the whole court and shooting the ball over the defense of the opponents. It is very tired and hard to successfully throw the ball into the basket and get the score. Someone may think that if cannot get any score for the team, others will not pay more attention on the person. In the view of spectators, the player who gets the most score in a tournament is the strongest in the team. The player who only does the support and never get a score will be considered as no contribution in the team?! Who say that? In the reality, anyone who looks only the surface of a case will have such theory. Because of this reason, someone who cares for the thinking of others will be selfish and wants to get the score as much as possible by self. The person thought that passing the ball to the teammates means losing a good chance to get score and giving a chance for others. He worries that cannot get a satisfactory result in the personal scoring to show off himself.

In the most popular game, Defense of the Ancient (DotA), playing as a team is compulsory. All the DotA heroes have the limit power. One hero is impossible to beat down 5 heroes in a battle unless the opponents are too weak. So, all of the players must gather and fight together in a battle to make the winning possibility to the maximum point. When your hero is attacked by the enemies, your teammates may come to rescue you at this moment and prevent them from killing you or kill them back. This scene is so touching. You will know the importance of the team spirit. Some noobs (newbie) are very damned, they always say "Ks! Ks!" (Kill Stealing). What is Kill Stealing? Kill Stealing is the act of keeping a damaging spell for killing the enemy hero on the last hit to death in order to get the rewards. There are many stupid players (noob) thought that the teammates come to support in order to steal their "food". A noob is chasing an enemy hero, his teammate come to help and kill, he kept saying the teammate purposely killsteal his "food". Although the noob can kill the enemy hero by himself, should the teammate stand beside and watch only? Those noobs do not know how to play DotA at all, they just know playing solo style and getting the highest score of killing in game. They should go to play the DotA with AI (Artifact Intelligence) that does not require much cooperation with team.

Team game is very enjoyable especially playing with friends. I can enjoy the communication and cooperation with my friends during the game. Sharing a triumph together with friends is quite a happy matter. Anyway, fellowship is more important than winning a game, so we should enjoy the process while we are playing together.
