Intro and history of my basketball experience

Hey what's going on everybody! My names Alex and I played as a center for all four years of high school ball. I stand at 6'4" and 210lbs.. I played for St. Bernard's CCHS, a division 2 team due to our school size. During the season we played schools from all 3 divisions, and arguably the best team in Mass, Saint John's. Playing for Saint Bernard's I have experienced winning a division championship, and making it to division quarter finals, semi finals, and state quarter finals. Now I've been playing as a center since the 2nd grade, giving me 11 years of experience. Over the years I've picked up and have been taught countless skills ranging from rebounding to mid range j's. The reason that I am blogging is because most teams I have played against don't utilize the center, which in turn causes the team their post season dreams or championship shot. I'm not saying the game has to revolve around the center, but a team has to use them to take the pressure off of the outside and other players. My later blogs will range from certain strengths and weaknesses of certain center builds, what every center should be able to do, and game plans that should be adopted in order to beat a certain team while still using the center,
