Depends on the horse player. If they are just hitting safety shot after safety shot that is their wheelhouse or doing dumb doinky shite Id lose. If I got into a long range war from places I could kill.

3 pt contest. Shooting 5 at each station with the last being moneyball. That was my jam.

OK. That's what I thought.

I have to say, I never liked tip because they were rarely pretty.

Hell, some tips were so bad, it was hard to tell if the tippers feet were even off the ground. It all just looked really sloppy.

Real 21 for the win!

Tip 21 without a doubt!

I grew early and was taller and stronger than most. I was uncoordinated as frick so I couldn't shoot for shite but I had older brothers who beat my arse down all the time so when I played with kids my age I tossed them around like rag dolls.

21. I'm a streaky shooter but I could always muscle my way to the rim.

Not a good enough rebounder for 21.

i have a knack for rebounding, so i was always pretty solid at 21, especially if tips are involved

21 is the best introduction to "let them shoot long 2s" that you can have

Bump was my game. I could always get the person ahead of me out by destroying their ball and getting it really far away from the basket


You're one of THOSE huh? I always thought that was such chickenshit. If you're too scared to play straight up, don't get in line.

Horse because I had a good baseline hook shot most guys can't make, I also was good at shooting from behind the backboard

Zero. I suck at all aspects of basketball. And I am cool with that.

It seems like bump is the same thing we called put out.

So I was the bump and horse king.

We played this game which basically amounted to smear the queer on a concrete basketball court. There were no fouls. If you had the ball, you had to shoot it and everyone else had to try to stop you.


Fun times. Many scars.

We played that to.

The worst I ever got crossed over was in that game I was going to tackle my buddy and he crossed me over it felt like my damn legs turned into limp noodles.
