As if the dad was trying to teach his son the essence of patience, repeatedly blocked his son's attempts to shoot the basketball.

The dad was standing next to the basketball ring and would block his son's shots immediately.

Although it might look a little frustrating, the young boy was patient to still try to shoot the ball.

The father was effortlessly blocking his son's shots. He even throws the ball away from the ring for his son to pick.

Behind the camera, the mom of the little boy was cheering him up saying, "Come on baby!"

The young boy tried to shoot the basketball three times. On his fourth attempt, he thought of a different approach.

What the little boy did was he pretended to be making a shot, but then he made a turn. After his turn, he gave a shot to his dad's groin and successfully shoots the ball to the unguarded ring.

The dad regrets his first three blocks to his son as he started to whimper in pain.

He slowly lied on the floor as his son watches him in pain. After a few seconds, the little boy victoriously says, "Yes!" and then gave huge smile to the camera.
