This is just for laughs.

You know you’re playing in a bum game if:

1) You can consistently block your opponent’s shot, yet they refuse to try something different, usually because they can’t.

2) Your defender reacts to every single shimmy/jab step you throw at him.

3) The guy who plays for his high school’s J.V. team and never dribbles during a real game looks like Allen Iverson in ’98, and the guy who never shoots during a real game looks like Reggie Miller in ’95.

4) The person you’re guarding dribbles the ball in front of you at least 8 times before they make a move, which you respond to by poking the ball away from them, thus causing them to frantically look for the ball.

5) You can move your defender 1+ feet backwards each time you back into him in the low post. You can also outrun that same defender whenever you feel like it.

6) You repeatedly find yourself snatching a rebound and dribbling the full length of the court for a lay-up.

7) The majority of your teammate’s and opponent’s jumpshots contain shooting forms that make you cringe. Also, most of the shots that they take just can’t seem to find the rim.

8) They repeatedly miss open layups, yet they shout expletives in complete disbelief after every miss.

9) Defenders cringe when you come down the lane at half speed.

10) They settle pre-game business during the game, such as what score you’re playing up to.

11) Nobody can seem to play and keep score at the same time.

12) Somebody’s wearing Tims.

13) Somebody (usually the guy in the Tims) pulls out their cell phone several times during the game.

14) The person you’re defending repeatedly turns the ball over when you completely cut off their dominant hand, despite the fact that you’re making it easier for them to drive with their non-dominant hand. They also think that the ball’s gonna leave them if they don’t look at it intently before they make a move.

15) One kid with a semi-decent handle always tries to take on the entire team by himself, only to have the ball stolen from him when he brings it inside.

16) It takes 10 minutes — sometimes longer — to start the game after teams are picked and possession of the ball is determined.

17) Nobody on your team has ever heard of stretching.

And last, but not least:

They’re eating stuff off the dollar menu 2 minutes before game time.

[DanEboyParticipant]

Awesome….you forgot about the sh@t talker who calls a foul every time he misses a shot. That guy.

[OrangeJuiceJonesParticipant]

How could I forget that guy? Wow, I must be tired.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

LMAO, I love the guy in Timbs, i always wonder if he actually came to PLAY basketball

[JNixonParticipant]

You know you’re playing a bum when a guy says “I got next” WHILE THEY’RE PLAYING, to assure themselves another opportunity to play before they lose.

[McDunkin]

Have you ever scored on a guy or blocked his shot… so he then begins to play mad/super aggresive but it doesnt improve his game at all

[SpencerIsHawesome2Participant]

The guy who makes one lucky shot early then proceeds to launch every time he gets the ball for the remainder of the game, missing all of them.

[llperez]

man, memories of a life playing ball here.

you know you are in a bum game when:

there is a at least one guy on the court who as soon as he touches the ball everyone on both teams start yelling his name because his teammates know he cant dribble more then 2 feet without turning it over and the opponents know he wants nothing to do with the ball.

And you know your in a bum game when the guy mentioned above consistently passes ball to the opposite team and then looks surprised that they had the audacity to call for the ball and trick him

you know you’re in a bum game when there is the guy i like to refer to as “magic johnson” on the court. He is usually an older veteran of pick up basketball and feels the need to tell everyone what is a good shot and where to go and likes to get the big man inside involved.

you know your in a bum game when there is at least one guy on the court who you have no clue if he is right handed or left handed and i dont mean that in a steve nash ambidextrous compliment type way. I mean he has two off hands and neither of them work and his form is so broke he appears to be changing hands with each shot.

you know your in a bum game when you have the guy i like to refer to as “chuck person” in the game. He has no conscious and feels that he has proven his reputation as a long distance threat over the years and that people in the gym are in awe of his ability to draw rim on 30 footers. Never mind his 10% shooting percentage. And you know if he hits the game winner, his own legacy grows in his head, even if it took 5 attempts before he finally knocked it down.

[M-DYMESParticipant]

The guy who intentionally fouls you at half court in a pick up game to stop you on a fastbreak.

The guy who puts on dribbling exhibitions at the top of the key but never goes anywhere doing it.

The guy who hold his “injured” arm/hand after missing a shot, but only when missing a shot.

The guy who continually passes the ball to the other team and claims he forgot they weren’t on his team.

The cherry picker.

The guy who biatches when any shot that goes up isn’t one that left his hands.

The guy who thinks getting open means standing 2 feet behind you and wants the rock.

The guy who thinks every pass he makes needs to be behind the back.

The guy who doesn’t look up when he dribbles despite having a teammate wide open on a fastbreak.

[M-DYMESParticipant]

The 6’8″ guy on your team who refuses to go down on the block and post up the guy he has 30 lbs and 4 inches on. Instead he thinks he is a PG and thinks he’s the next LBJ.

It said i was posting spam and it would not except it so I tried it a diff way and obviously i did it way to much haha

[llperez]

funny list. “40 year old fundamentals” and “WNBA” are the truth. It’s awkward playing ball aginst a girl. You end up playing pretend defense so as not to let her get anything easy or disrespect her, but you cant get physical with a girl. And there is always an old man who has the set shot and back door pass and knows how to use screens. It really means something to him to prove he still has it against the young guys and he is willing to sacrifice a weekend of being stiff and in pain to prove it.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

LMAO…This is hilarious, and whenever you play a few pick-ups, your bound to see atleast half of these guys

WNBA had me dying, something about defending a girl you dont know all that well, makes u be very careful….

[McWinningParticipant]

Theres the game who takes crazy hook shots, behind the back moves, crazy fadeaways, and always airballs it, but then yells at you for taking e decent shot and missing it

[OrangeJuiceJonesParticipant]

LOL @ Kobe4Prez’s list. I think the creators of that Facebook group got a few names for their list from this video:

[DanEboyParticipant]

You know you are playing in a bum game if I am anywhere on the court.

[OrangeJuiceJonesParticipant]

You know you’re playing in a bum game if you can just stand at the top of the key and throw pinpoint bounce passes to cutters whenever you feel like it.

[knicksfan7Participant]

One time I was playing in a game, I was about 13/14, and my cell phone rang and I answered it. I was on defense, and my opponent had the ball instead of him driving to the hole he just took a shot for the corner, and while on the phone I just reacted and blocked the shot hung up the phone put it back in my pocket, and went on offense. I am telling the truth, lol.

[joecheck88Participant]

lol. 40 year old fundamental and wnba are hilarious because they are true. i see most of these when i play at the ymca.

[joecheck88Participant]

I’ve seen damn near every type of player discussed on this thread. Gotta be one of my favorite threads on the site. Thanks OJJ. This sht is hilarious.

You’re welcome.

This thread had me cracking up because I actually played a pick-up game with a guy who was a combination of “40-year-old fundamental” and “Player Coach” today. He kept putting his arm around my shoulder and whispering tips in my ear.

“Cut the next time he turns his head like that”

“Don’t be nervous about putting the ball on the floor”

“Go down low and post up; I’ll lob it to you”

“Add a two-dribble pullup to your game. Nobody could guard you if you did that”

I think the worst part about it is that he was playing point guard, which killed any chance we had of getting easy fast-break buckets, unless we cherry picked. Aside from being a 5’7, slow, methodical point guard, he was pretty good. It seemed like he made every shot, and he took care of the ball. He was able to pick up a kid that couldn’t dribble or move much on D, so he wasn’t a liability in that department.
