People who go thru a 15 second ritual before free throws. Just shoot the damn ball

Guys who foul and then talk shite about it afterwards.

"Oh, that's a foul? foul? I'll show you a foul"

the guy that shows up with a headband, 6 sweat bands ... $250 shorts and top .. $300 shoes .. a michael jordan "23" gold chain around their neck and still sucks something awfful ... and you picked him because you figured someone that spends that much money on basketball HAS to be decent at it ..


I love jersey guy.

Reminds me of the commercial where they guy calls himself Mr. Basketball..can't remember the company though..damn

if a noob tries to take a charge we just laugh at him and check the ball back up top... charges arent allowed in pickup games

At least you didn't start a thread...


I would love to see some of you people play against Karma...every time there is a call disputed, he is involved. Every time. It's actually pretty hilarious.

I always thought it was funny when tall people blocked my shot, and then talk S about it. I'm always like dude, you're supposed to block me. I'm small.

We never call charges or attempt to take them in reg. pick up games and so on....but if someone just flats out lowers his shoulder and pushes someone back 5 feet we'll call O foul.

I was in control and you have a horribly cheesy mustache. Also, the fact that you never played any form of organized ball due to your half-retarded looking lazer-esque jump shot and 2" verticle, does'nt mean you have to purposly take out someone who has just broke your ankles w/ the killerest of killer cross-overs. It's just church ball...pussy.

You could, just don't act all badass if you're like 6'3" and you block my shot (I'm 5'6").

Don't get me wrong, every now and then I love talking S on the court.

I remember playing on the courts at Edward Gay apartments behind Kirby, and some little 12 year old Chinese kid wanted to join in a game of 21, and we let him.

I'm a little over 6'2" and had to catch myself after the second time I swatted one of his shots down and yelled "Get that shite outta here!"

some call it A, some call it B .. i used both ..

i'm just saying why eliminate certain aspects of the game while playing pick up ? if someone's going to dunk in a pick up game, what are you supposed to do ? just step aside and let dominique wilkins do his thing ? that's a lot of fun and challenging ..
