There’s nothing like a game of one on one when you get home from work or on the weekend with some pals. I used to have my very own basketball hoop near my desk at a place I used to work.

I was in the computer field at the time and the place I worked in had this huge warehouse and that’s where the basketball hoop was. It was fantastic. Take a break and thow some hoops every now and then, or play a game on your lunch break. Very cool.

I’d be great to be able to put a basketball hoop system in here at the house but we don’t have a garage. Our neighbors do though – and the back of their garage touches the side of our garden. I wonder if I could attach a hoop there and play in the back yard. Nahhh I’d probably end up ruining the plants.

One hoop system that I like is the Hoops Pro Dunk Diamond. It’s a new high end residential basketball hoop system, and it sounds great. It’s got an 8″ X 8″ pole, and a 5′ foot extension arm, rather than the 4′ extension arm that comes with most systems. The rim and backboard are NCAA grade too.

If I can ever figure out how to put in a basketball hoop system here at our small house that’s the system I’d like to get.

How about my readers? Do any of you have basketball hoops at your home? Do you use them?
