    It takes about 8 hours a day of intense training (obviously when your not in school), and you need to get recognized. You need to be able to work on everything, make every team you try out for including school, then theres a chance.

    You have to practice a lot and watch techniques over and over and adapt it to your own style...You don't have to have style to be in the NBA though, it depends on your skill to rebound and score...That's pretty much it. Oh yeah, you need to acknowledge that you have talent, but don't push it.
