no one in the gym today, so i worked on a couple of new moves

Awesome! quick moves

it took me a good 20 minutes to get the shammgod down, it goes against every natural instinct

its v unnatural, I've only tried it a few times but never in a game situation. Doesn't seem like something I would use. I use the white chocolate around the back to myself all the time tho.

nice moves, u rly shook ur defender, how is casper irl btw (or ird in his case)

the defender was ur mom but she was too tired after the first video we made, if u know what i mean

the little spin was me imitating parker and the lefty shammgod was supposed to be manu

why was my mom playing basketball after filming a porno with u? what a weird date.

she's a grown woman, she knows better than that.

2 things that suck about pickup ball
1) total lack of charging. certain guys seem to not even have a concept of it, and will relentlessly ram into you every possession.
2) 1s and 2s as default scoring mode rather than 2s and 3s. And the math geniuses I generally play with don't get how "1s and 2s" mode gives more weight to behind-the-arc shots.

in my pickup world people generally dont play with twos

tho i secretly like to cause theyre fun to shoot

Lol who the fuck calls a charge in a pickup game

^ every once in a while when someone stands in one spot for like 3 seconds and gets pummeled and subsequently hurt he MIGHT get the call.

ones and twos is great for when there are lots of people waiting to get on the court, keeps things moving. But yeah it really adds a ton of weight to outside shooting

charge is ok to call if it's super obvious but the offense should get the ball back

if you push someone over w yr off arm or like barrel into someone then try to call the foul on them

i like to call three seconds and then yell 'respect the call' over and over until everyone quits

haha otm

lol 3 seconds and back court are two things that are not allowed to be called in open gym

yeah there is no backcourt

really i feel like backcourt is always called, or sometimes three quarters court, a regional pick up conventions map would be interesting

ha I've played in a handful of states from Colorado westward and never ever played where that was called.

its also kind of looked down upon to call traveling unless its like super obvious.

maybe its just a new yawk street ball thing *shrugs* *dunks*

backcourt is a dumb rule tho that shldnt even exist in the nba

i've never seen backcourt or three seconds or palming/carrying called, altho some fuckers do nothing but carry

could probably count charges on one hand. and one (1) time i played against a pickup zone defense lol

hah man i have a group of friends I run with and we have one squad if we are all playing together we can do zone cos we all get it. But all it takes is one knucklehead and it all comes crashing down.

works as another defender though for a trap which is cool cos traps are cool

ha i have def seen the zone attempted many times but it only ever lasts from one play cause you cant really just do that shit on the fly

yeah you have to know the dudes

team getting burnt, ok lets do zone ill stand here you over there, uh ok never mind
