Worst Pickup Basketball Etiquette?

[NormanConnors]

Breh's really out there playing with bluetooth sets and headphones now

I haven't played pick up in years, my knees are, but that is just hilarious to me.


My main dislikes were the over dribbling cats and cats that didnt like to cut/move without the ball.

Also the fat breh's in a shirts vs skins game

I got a homie that got a NICE j and a killer hook. Whenever we play 1-on-1 he droppin' buckets on me all day. Whenever we play together on the same team dude legit forgets how to play ball and be tryna post dudes up with his frail ass.

I'm deadass like bro lemme run the pick and pop - shyt is unstoppable.

Folks who lost that won't leave the court and asking to run it back in a packed gym/court

-The emotional nikkas that want to get loud after losing

-The 37 year old nikkas still salty that they got no scholarship offers and take the shyt way too serious

-The skinny young nikka with a Jimmy Butler fade, arm sleeves, leg sleeves, compression shorts and some retro Jordans/Kyries/Lebrons on like he's a certified baller then goes 0-19 shooting threes & driving in the lane trying to be Westbrook

-The hood nikkas that play WAY too aggressive, talk MAD shyt, threaten you when you talk shyt back, then want to fight/pull a gun out when you win

I only do shooting/dribbling drills & play one on one for cardio after lifting, the shyt is ridiculous now

All of my teen years and up until now. Specifically the 40+ brehs that get suuper hyped and act like Kobe in Game 6 on every play, especially with the Horace Grant Goggles...
"Ah my God! What are you doing?"

Video reminds me that we all need to get our Jiu Jitsu up. Seen way too many online videos of scrawny white dudes breaking out submissions on bruhs.

Also the comments in that video are very

"man we kicked yall asses already, man yall aint neva beat us since we've been out here"


"breh, all you do is pass the ball and take that bih out,, I let you take me to the hole and you aint do nothing but blow the layup and you got your sht packed outta of bounds, with that weak ass shyt, I sag off you and give you the jumper and you airball that sht, you aint doing nothing to rack up the W's, matter of fact, why you don't check me"


"man I aint gotta do nothing, we winning"


If not always, it's the pissy player that wanna talk the most trash. Garage ass player.

Calling fouls... what the fukk is that shyt?

In grad school the international cats in the gym stayed calling that shyt. Games used to run hella long. Hell I remember playing one on one with one of them..called so many fukking fouls and it lasted so long..it made my game struggle and we both kind of gassed out lol. It was like 7-7 when we had to stop..never before or since has that type of shyt ever happened. I was so at the whole thing.

I stopped playing altogether because fakkits take it too serious

My personal pet peeve is passive aggressive fakkits who act all exasperated and shyt if you take a shot they deem as bad, rolling their eyes or sighing under their breath like a bytch like this

I want to crush the skulls of fukks like that, fr. This Asian kid who thinks he's nice because he's on the local HS team did that shyt to me today and it was literally the first shot of the game Then proceeded to go like 1/8 missing layups and shyt. If I see him again he's my man and it's cookies

Then if you make it act like they ain't do shyt... also when nikkas be bulldozing everywhere and then have the nerve to call tic tac fouls like it's not a pickup game.

Worst of all though are ballhogs There's this one nikka at a court I go to who I won't even play with because he literally passes 1-3 times a game, and puts up shots with 3 people on him. Anytime nikkas run with him they just defer to him because he's like 6' 5" and nice (good midrange game, mostly due to his size) but the games are always boring as fukk. It's like he's not nice enough to play with nikkas in his weight class so he takes it out on regular joes. nikka still be bricking badly while ignoring everyone, shyt is actually offensive.

playing with white folk takes the cake for me
