What I wish I knew before trying highlights in Jakarta

Context: I am not an expert, just someone trying to make Basketball feel less intimidating. I wrote down what worked, what felt awkward, and what I would do differently next time.

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. nba got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

The detail that surprised me was how much a neighborhood park changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

The framing feels off to me. Not terrible, just not convincing. I keep a note about highlights for exactly this reason.
