Better question is can a basketball court be paved with cement, and the answer would be yes some do have cement. If you want to have cement on a basketball court you'll need to know how long the court will be and the wideness to have the right amount. (Don't forget you'll need to level the ground). Once that is finished you can guesstimate how much you will need. Probably really depends on the length and width

On October 18th, 1985, NBA commissioner David Stern banned the Air Jordan I sneaker from the NBA. He felt that they failed to meet on-court dress codes and did not match the uniform of the Chicago Bulls. Commissioner David Stern began fining Michael Jordan $5,000 every time he wore the Air Jordan I's on the court. Nike paid the fine and continued to have Michael wear the shoes. In doing so, the popularity of the product skyrocketed and sales were astronomical for the product.

If your defender is guarding you closely, you can use the crossover to try to break the defender's ankles. The trick is to fake the defender when he thinks your going one direction, but you are really going the other. Another good ankle breaking crossover is the killer crossover. You do between the legs left or right and go the other direction quickly. There are other killer crossovers like the Tony Parker crossover, Allen Iverson crossover, Derrick Rose crossover with counter, and many others.

I recommend for you to go on youtube and search killer crossovers it will really help:)

P.S. Twisting the defenders ankles will not break ankles

However, to be a good center, you must be able to rebound the ball, box out your opponent, score in the post, and hit a mid range jump shot. Most centers in the league can do this; the best can do all of them well, along with being a force on the inside on the defensive end (blocking shots, as well).

Wrestling because basketball is a sport that you can pretty much do on your own time and learn it. In order to get a permission to officially wrestle, you need to go through the training. There's no risk of harming your opponents in basketball as there is in wrestling so it must be done a lot more carefully even though it seems otherwise from the outside of the ring.
