Re: The worse pick up players.
I hate playing against the guy who calls a foul every time he loses the ball, especially if no one touches him.Comment

and my personal favorite
"the loud, screaming whiner"

Re: The worse pick up players.
Seems like you got every possible player covered, lol. I don't know if there are any "normal" pick-up players.Comment

Re: The worst pick up players.
The guy who thinks he's Lebron and just holds the ball for 20 seconds, gets everyone to clear out and then tries to drive every time. There's no shot clock, so you don't need to run clock, eventually everyone just starts standing around, so either make your move or pass the ball.
The guy who has to yell every time they miss a shot, like they are shocked they missed and it's a really rare occurrence. Like they take a fadeaway three, barely hit rim, and yell out "ugghh what's wrong with me today." Bro, you never hit that shot, lets be real. These people also never play defense, they spend their time shaking their head and making excuses about why they can't shoot.Originally posted by Jay BilasComment

Re: The worst pick up players.
One of the weirdest one is the guy who has all the handles in the world but can't do nothing else. He'd cross his man over with a nice quick move and when he gets to the rim he misses the layup. When he shoots a jumpshot he misses the whole rim.I have more respect for a man who let's me know where he stands, even if he's wrong. Than the one who comes up like an angel and is nothing but a devil. - Malcolm XComment

Re: The worse pick up players.
LOL, thats when you recieve a Kobe-esque arm swing after the jumper...
Theres also the "No easy passes guy"
Even a simple inbound becomes a issue....instead of a simple chest pass to the open guy...a spinning zip pass to the covered man under the goal is more appropiate....Comment

Re: The worst pick up players.
I don't like all of the guys already mentioned but the one that bugs me the most is the guy who thinks he is all that. Tries to coach other guys, doesn't play team basketball, doesn't know how to play defense. Yea, that guy bugs me.Comment

Re: The worse pick up players.
I have a friend that fits this descprition to a T. He's so notorious in our circle for his passes that we call them "Montgomery passes", his last name. Every pass he throws is either to high or at your ankles, and they all have a 10089378489 rpm side spin, all the while coming at you like John Elway was trying to squeeze it in between a triple team. The funniest part is that he compares himself to Steve Nash. The fact that he's a horrific shooter and his passing is the absolute worst, makes it hard to believe people are that blind to their own shortcomings...."In the morning he would read the Bible with another coach. Then, in the afternoon, he would go out and cheat kids who had probably saved up money from mowing lawns to buy those raffle tickets. That's Jim Tressel."Comment

Re: The worst pick up players.
This thread has me cracking up and wishing I still had my YMCA membership.
Here's a few I'm sure you all know...
The old sweaty guy who insists on being skins every game, posting you up and boxing you out relentlessly, on every play, but you're stuck covering him because no one else will.
The guy with goggles. Always pick him.Comment

Re: The worst pick up players.
Yes! The "Coach on the floor" guy is so annoying. Often times they either were decent in HS about 100 years before or played 5 minutes in college and thinks that qualifies them to break down everyone's game, etc.
It only was a minor irritation when I was young, but as an adult (I've recently started playing again as I get back in shape) it flat-out drives me nuts!
I'll also add the "where I'm from..." guy. He's the one who makes excuses for his play or whines about the game at hand with "that ain't how we do it where I'm from." He's usually also the one (like some have mentioned already) who molests you in the air and asks "you call that?" on one end and then calls every ticky-tack foul he can think of when you D him.
Also, now that I think of it-the guy who yells "AND ONE!!!" after every shot that has a defender within a 100 mile radius of him...regardless of whether it even has a chance to go in or not.Comment
