Pro Am walk on.

Don't get me wrong Pro Am is really good but my problem is being from the UK none of my friends are interested in Basketball.

So I'm always matched up with people who have no clue and just run and jack up stupid shots, making it a lot less fun. for example.

Guess a lot of you run with five so my point is am i just unlucky or is that the problem with playing walk on.

Anybody looking to play hit me up, ogmisery_24

Re: Pro Am walk on.

That's the problem with playing as a walk-on, if you don't go in there with at least a group of 3 then you're gonna have a bad time most of the time.

95% of randoms playing hero ball, iso ball, kobe bryant ball, whatever you wanna call it, however you'll occasionally find someone who's a good teammate.

I'm honestly surprised so many people stayed till the end. All the Pro-Am games I play everybody has pretty much quit by the 3rd quarter.

Re: Pro Am walk on.

That's what happens when you run with randoms.

I played it once and I'll never do it again.

Everyone wants to shoot 3s, I was the PG yet my teammates wouldn't even inbound me the ball. They would throw it up half court to the SG/SF, no one plays in the post, everyone full court presses which lead to them constantly getting blown by and giving the other team easy point. The bball iq of randoms is so ridiculously low it's hilarious.

Re: Pro Am walk on.

I agree, a group of 3 is pretty much the best chance for walk ons. That way if you have them dudes who just wanna shoot and never pass you have the option to freeze them out of the offense.

My suggestion to you, is go play park.

Send party invites to guys you play with who are good and play the way you like, see if they wanna hit up pro-am. Most the time they'll do it, I know it's the best way last year to get random games in the rec center.

Re: Pro Am walk on.

I played a walk on game over the weekend and it was surprisingly smooth (didn't notice any lag). It wasn't cheesy either. We lost but I could see myself playing this mode every once in a while.

The only issue was we had the same uni's as our opponents. The only difference was the color of our numbers. I didn't like that.

You're not unlucky. I'm in the USA and I get matched up with idiots who don't know the game of basketball as well.

You can see from the picture I'm not too bothered about scoring, I'll happily get assists but when you play with those sort of guys we are on about its just Kobe ball and you get bypassed. I want to play basketball not run and jack up contested shots every play. Let's face it as well the game are a good fifteen minutes and that **** gets boring real fast.
