Motivational Basketball Quotes, Dunked
For a true hoopster, basketball motivational quotes will speak for the shot, for the box-out, and for the sound of the crowd chanting their number.
For the rest of you, we'll go over a few common misconceptions that prevail in the stunted hoop community:
- A technical foul is not a vocationally-trained chicken.
- A turnover is not flaky, nor is it stuffed with apples.
- The foul line is not a halftime show featuring a string of chickens.
- The players do not need a bib when they dribble.
- When a player travels, he will not end up in Cancun.
- When a player carries a ball, she will not be giving birth.
- An intentional foul is not a determined chicken.
- A foul shot does not refer to a barnyard vaccination.
- A 3-pointer is not the jock version of the Girl Scout sign.
- A 5x5 is not a common lumber measurement.
- A V-cut is not a reference to the style of the players' jerseys.
- A point guard is not a player's cool version of a pocket protector.
- A bank shot is no reason for a felony conviction.

- And finally, a dingle is not...whatever you thought it was.
