Caribolakeranjang: Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) College 9 Basketball Court, Johor Bahru, Johor

Everything about this court is  incomparable, the best outdoor court I had been so far. Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) College 9 Basketball Court. To mention that UTM is one of the top university in Malaysia, also been ranks among top of the universities around the world. It might look I am a bit bias because I am graduated here (HAHA!).

The court had been the main focus not only players from all colleges inside the UTM but also best players from Johor Bahru. Equip with chain net (cool!), but also the surface of the court is very good and give perfect bounce for the ball.  Every Thursday and Friday night, most players will gather and play here with 5 on 5 full court game is preferable. Name as Xcelerators Basketball Club (BC), Weekenders BC, Sembang BC are some of the famous basketball teams played there. Their passion, determination and craving for win makes every games very challenge and tense! Not to mention if your team lost, need to wait outside until the game is finished.

Behind the line or above the rim?

This seems like a good idea, but how many people think they are DeAndre Jordan (dunker) and how many people think they are Stephen Curry (3-point shooter)?

Behind the line or above the rim??
