re: All the Stereotypes of Pick-up Basketball

They need to add the Mr. Injury player. That would be me.

Haven't watched it but please tell me cherry pickers are on there.

Can't stand when I play 5 on 5 pickup full court and I am the only one who runs back on defense while the rest of my team mates stand at our end of the court with hands on hips. So its like a 5 on 1 and I get dunked on or something and my lazy team mates complain for not playing defense/contesting the shot.

Dad + Kid has ruined many pickup games in my life.

I don't think your description of cherry picking is what that is. We always called it snowbirding. That's when one guy plays no defense and sits around half-court and as soon as the ball was shot he takes off to his goal by himself for a layup. I usually fixed that in my rage days with a slightly "hard foul" if I caught up to him followed by a friendly snowbird warning.

Tall guy who only shoots threes FTW.

I have a few to add:

The Fatass Snowbird
The Overly Aggressive Defender
The Unskilled Showboater
The Paint Camper

and the wussy who calls fouls. No fouls in Pick up basketball. and always get the basket, keep the ball. No losers.

Even egregious fouls? I try not to call them either and let others call em for me but if its stupid ill call it. A clear slap on the arm while shooting is egregious
