Sometimes we win them but sometimes we lose. Basketball is a team game. It is played in any season because you play this game is indoors game. It is played in a gym. But sometimes you can see streetball - basketball in an open air.

Basketball is risky too because every minute you can break your arm or leg or get another problem with your health. I like playing basketball most of all.
