The worst pick up players.

Re: The worst pick up players.

I think the tallest girl I've ever played ball with/or against was like around 5'7-5'8 and most of the time they'd get most of their points coming off the dribble out on the perimeter.

But in the rare event that I was guarding a broad one on one, I'd give her that 2005-07 Bruce Bowen-type D minus sticking my foot underneath her of course LOL.

6'4" and 260 and know how to play the game? Why do you have to violate anyone that posts you up, let alone a female? lol

Seems like a girl that wants to post you up would get blocked ten times out of ten.

Re: The worst pick up players.

Yeah well some girls have that Napoleon complex. After they learn not to back be down, they go all perimeter small forward on me. Small people are fast man. And my hips don't flex and jive to be playing defense out there lol.

The guy that keeps stats. Nobody cares how many rebounds and assist you had.

Re: The worst pick up players.

I forgot about this thread for a bit...

The video was awesome, especially "it's...it's just the war man...." I laughed my *** off.

I use that line every couple of months. ". . .My uncle's over there. . .it's his birthday."

It works best if I'm playing with someone who's seen the video.

Unfortunately, I've also been in a couple of situations where I was able to unleash, "I've got the hiker."

The Flopper.

Like, really...it's pick up basketball...

Re: The worst pick up players.

Alright, time to call myself out for one...

The "I used to..." guy. I hadn't played ball for a bit and have recently been playing more. I was decent back in the day and could shoot...not so much now.

Anyway, I apparently made mention of that fact on the court one too many times. I said something to the effect of "Man, 18 year old me used to hit that every time..." when I missed consecutive wide open shots. Dude replied, "well, why don't you find him then, because you ain't hittin **** now." He was right. I felt stupid...lol.

Then I had to laugh though, as I thought of this thread. I think I'm going to be "quiet, take what I can get guy" for a bit.

Pretty solid of you to be real about that. I say next time just blame it on the war.

Re: The worst pick up players.

The guys who stop the entire game to argue about an insignificant call. I can't even understand what they're saying through half of the argument because they get so frustrated they just speak total gibberish, with a random mixture of yellin' "DAAAAAAMN MAN" inbetween these gibberish words. Oh yeah, ocasionally there will be a fight over these insignificant calls...a legit fist fight. Good times...not.

Re: The worst pick up players.

You normally get those types when it game point and the other team is down by more than 2-3 pts at that time.

Re: The worst pick up players.

the guy who never keeps track of where the other players are or whose peripheral vision is about as wide as my pinky finger... lol.

One of my best friends is this type of player, he's actually a decent shooter and can make a contested layup every now and then, however... Whenever my group gets together and I get him on my team, and he gets the ball, everybody else just closes into the paint for the rebound/to stop his inevitable out of control, crazy, amare-stoudemire-like dive or double teams him to get the turnover because he never learns rofl.

I have to admit though, I'm the the guy who keeps track of his stats xP

I mostly run the point and get my buddies good open shots because nobody in my group has my facilitating abilities so I like to tally my assists to make myself feel special >_>

side-note: I threw my first alley-oop to this really athletic dude on my team yesterday... dude went crazy lmao

JaVale McGee is that you? Or is this Lebron?

Re: The worst pick up players.

About the girl thing, from my experiences the girls never like you to go easy on them. It actually kinda pisses them off, lol.

Personally I wouldn't go Game 7 of the Finals D on them, but pretty much every girl that joins a game wants to be treated like the rest of the dudes.
