When Basketball is your Life

Hobbies can be fun. They can also can be insanely competitive and life altering. Basketball has always been a competitive sport, but this competitiveness makes those who fail at it all the more embarrassing. This marks the birth of basketball memes, where individuals who try hard, fail hard. For example, sometimes you just like basketball a lot, maybe a bit too much? In fact, this fellow gentleman took it to the next level, he BECAME a basketball, and a internet meme while he was at it. I wish my dedication was that intense.

Still, basketball memes don't just come from the supporters, they can come from the players themselves too. Especially when a professional basketball player doesn't look like they're playing basketball. 

Wow. When you're in that position, just slap on a caption and it instantly becomes a sensational basketball meme. In his defense, at least he probably stopped that guy from hitting the shot. Still, it looks more like he should be playing soccer, don't you agree? 

THEN AGAIN, photo editing becomes a popular option to creating popular basketball memes, even when the players themselves are unaware of it. You could have a wonderful and normal photo of people playing basketball, but a simple take and switch with a photo editing program can meme-ify that photo. Take a look at this red hot, or should i say delicious basketball meme?

SO GOOD. I may be talking about the chicken or the player, but now you'll never know!
