How do you play pick up ball?

[TE]

TBH, my game mirrors the play of a European guard (not relying to much on athleticism and more on basketball smarts). I use the Euro step a lot with a mix of CP3's game (I don't look to shoot all the time).


How do you play?

[Lincoln]

tbh, main ball handler and just pass to people coming off screens. will drive and kick out but i dont really look to finish unless i see the opportunity. will shoot the open shot. cant rebound for shit but i still try and will get a few but i get a lot of assists even though my passing isnt the greatest

[Roger Freemason Jr.]

Anybody know any good adult leagues? Been playing for a while with my buds, & we're getting a lot better, we've even established roles. I'm a big bodied guy, 5'11, 230 pounds. We don't know much about how an adult league works though..

[bdictjames]

I'm a scorer/driver type. Can shoot in front of people, can shoot open threes, and really good at finding holes that I can attack on the rim Parker style.

[TE]

Euro step, my unstoppable runner, and spotting up is what I do. I'm not the best shooter facing up off the dribble, but spotting up I'm wet. I shoot alot of fadeaways in the high post, once I get in that area I'm like Kobe. Basically the only hole in my game is being 6ft and wanting to play like I'm 6'6

Yeah...
The euro step in my game is the best probably because I'm pretty quick on my feet. I also have a floater which I use when I'm playing against really tall posts. I'm almost 6'1' so I'm not that short. I have a post game but it's based more on overpowering the defender and not so much on fadeaways (I'm around 205 pounds). People that guard me are usually around my height but I have about 40-50 pounds on them so it's easy to score if I blow by them. I also have a hook shot that I use with either hand. But then again, I'm not that aggressive (as I stated in the opening post).

[DMC]

I do a little shake n bake, fake to the right and drive to the left, spin around and generally dunk on the opposite side of the rim, but I am also a team player. I can spread the floor like Bonner, demand the ball like Kobe, defer like Lebron or sit the bench like Splitter. I am multi-faceted.

[djohn2oo8]

Used to be Kobe, now more of a spot up 3 point shooter, alas Ray Allen

[NBA Champs]

I'm more of a junkyard dog type player. Though I can stroke it when I'm warmed up..I prefer to use my athleticism to crash boards, contest shots, stick to my man like glue and run the floor. I also LOVE setting screens and passing the ball--nothing like getting assists. You'll also find me getting easy buckets off backdoor passes and running through screens. I NEVER stop moving.

P.S. I'm only like 5'10, but love to get in the post and mix it up..I just signal to whomever is running point to toss it up and I snatch the ball near the highest point every time since I'm always out jumping my opponents. And they aren't slouches either.

[ClipshowDynasty]

Tbh if we combined all our talents, I say we could go to war with the current t wolves

[mystargtr34]

Im a bit like Pau Gasol/Chris Bosh combination.. im usually the tallest guy on the court and reasonably skilled so i play in the post but im pretty soft.. i only get the rebounds that come to me since i dont like much contact and i have a terrible motor since i usually spend 2 hours at the gym before i play a basketball game :lol. I only try on the possessions where i know im going to score or block a shot. Dont really try in other areas of the game besides when i played in an organised comp when i knew the coach was watching. But even then it was fake hussle.

[Killakobe81]

Mine (in my more younger days) ... was a hybrid GP/Alonzo on defense.

On offense I had the tim bank shot and a magic baby hook but not a great shooter or finisher but a good "junk" post game ....

I was a center in a SF body unfortunately ....

I usually handle the ball tbh...I have Roses athletcism, Parkers finishing ability, and Nashs shot. Our games are up to 15, 2s and 1s and if I dont finish with atleast 12 pts for my team its a bad game for me.

[Ditty]

I was 5'8 145lbs, in high school I was a point guard, but I guarded shooting guards, if I had to play against a quick point guards because I was never a good defensive player, and never moved moved my feet well. I was a spot up shooter, who ran plays who never created offense on a mediocore high school team. They were some camps I went too that I had to be the main scorer or 2nd option, which I did well, and got us to a couple of camp championships. Now 3 years later since my senior year I grew and inch and gained 10 more pounds mostly of fat tbh. I have been watching a lot of basketball since high school eneded now that I have the time, which I'm a better defender now, which I can get in your face, but at the same time I don't have quick feet, so I rely sometimes for the big guys who can back me up. I can guard point guards now, if I give them some room, though I am out of shape, and get pretty winded after the first game, if I was in shape I could give the best offensive players or slow players hell. I use to always get beat on in hs even when I gave room. I'm still a lights out shooter, but lately I have been more streaky which I have been trying to improve on. I have a bad 1st step, I'm bad at reading offenses to create offense, I'm good on shooting on pick n rolls, but I have never played with a big man a pick up game who has set a solid screen for me to drive to the basket. I'm a hell of a passer I have great court vision, I'm just not strong enough to make long passes, and lately I have been forcing too many passes. A lot of bad habits I'm gaining I guess from playing too much street ball. I'm great when I get around basket, I have so many shot fakes and moves, and nice floater, and have some good hang time for someone who is not that athletic. I don't like to call fouls in street ball but I would be going to the line at a high rate if it was a real game, which I'm a great free throw shooter, I just need to create more contact and get stronger to finish plays.

[frodo]

go one-on-one against the defender every chance i get and beat the defense most of times. i don't use much tricks and don't dribble alot, just play a simple style of game. i play a similar style like paul pierce imho. im kinda a dirty defender on the other end though, do not deign to break opponents ankles or noses if dem ######s have pissed me off

Tbh I suck at basketball but I can get to the hoop basically everytime because I am really agile and explosive, i just am really inconsistent with finishing.


My mid range is pretty solid I can pull up fast off dribble and elevate and I can't shoot 3s for fucking shit. I can't even remember the last time I took one.

So basically i play like a extremely shitty version of rip Hamilton and whatever hood ###### that get to the rack at will and not finish consistently.

[Scrub]

I'm 6 feet 4.5 inch circa 200lb shooting guard. Was playing for 2 of the best clubs in my country from when I was 8 to 16 years old. Then I had my first meniscus surgery which the doctors had to cut out completely and basically told me that my knees (ligaments) are not made for profesionally playing basketball...which was eventually confirmed (had several surgeries).I then quit playing for a club and played in the minor leagues for some years,schooling those wannabes. Anyway until that first surgery I was a go-to guy on my team, being primary ball handler, cutting, shooting, creating for others you name it...was also the best defender on any team/national selection I've been on and always guarded oponent's best guards/small forwards. My jumper is even now probably better than 30% of nba players...jason kidd or dwayne wade would've beet GOAT with my jumper tbh. I have a record of 112 made free throws in a row and 68 college threes (when I was 15,16)...I could dunk easily with 1 hand, 2 hands, front, reverse, 360 and dunked easily from 3 feet in front of the free throw line (my long jump record is cca 23 feet)...went to&won some dunking competitions in high school too. I've played against and with&outscored players that are now multiple euroleague champions, some of them went to nba, I straight up punked a player that was a member of 1st team of eurochampionships a few years ago etc. I would say my only weakness was ball handling...not half court ball handling but PG ball handling-had to play a PG in some games due to injuries/foul trouble of my PGs and didn't do particulary well. This had probably something to do with my relatively small hands-I couldn't hold a basketball with one hand...I would say my ceiling (if healthy for entire career) was Rudy Fernandez EASILY...if everything fell into place I could end up being a Ginobilli quality tbh.
I just loved to play against wannabes, scrubs that were convinced they know how to play basketball and humiliate the shit out of them, lock them down (even with some dirty tricks) so they couldn't even get a proper shot off..For example I would crave for playing against someone like Koolaid_Man...Wigga I would punk your wannabe black ass so hard You would cry all the way back to your white mommy and think very hard of ever picking up a basketball again...Bitch I would play 1on1 first to 21 with u for anything you want/have. Including livetime slavery. I was playing games for money against scrubs like u and gave them 18-0 lead and the ball to start with...

[MambaJuice2408]

Interesting posts thus far.

My game consists of alot of hustle. I prefer to play SG because I'm only 5'10" and I can't dribble the ball well unless I'm in a position to attack (3 point stance) or have a screen for separation. I have a great array of pump fakes, pivots, jab steps to compensate for my lack of height and finishing in the lane which I use to great results. I rely alot on fundamentals, especially against taller, stronger players who wan't to block your shot and or can jump out of the building.

Defensively, I'm a beast on the perimeter. I have good foot speed and agility. I'm great at defending players who run around screens (ray allen). Against bigger players I try to beat them for position in the post. My motor never stops on that end of the floor. Since I've been playing over 10 years my anticipation skills are pretty good so I try to cheat against weaker opposition by playing the passing lanes.

All in all, I'm prone to chucking some shots if I'm busting ass on defense and at the other end I'm not getting the rock or if my teammates are taking bullshit shots and trying to be globetrotters. I'll even cherry pick to pad my stats!

Overall I'm very unselfish, to a fault sometimes. Looking to make the right play and find the open man even if they suck to keep them involved because I know that feeling. I don't talk much so I don't demand the ball. I prefer to let my effort do the talking.

Biggest weakness is probably my ball handling, and that I'll stop shooting for awhile if I start off 0-3 or 0-4.

[TE]

tbh we should get a pick up game going, and leave out scrubs who would otherwise debilitate our competition (i.e., Kool).

Rendezvous should be somewhere in Texas for obvious reasons.

[Proxy]

Like a younger Manu... unorthodox eurosteps and finishes. i can make efficient dishes off the drive. I don't shoot much though. I love shutting down perimeter players... more like Bruce on defense tbh.

[Monostradamus]

I'm pretty sure you mean triple threat, unless lining up like a left guard with your hand on the ground is normal for you on a basketball court.

bitch plz, there be reason why yu on here an not in da nba!!!

[Kamnik]

Offensively I am most effective shooting high % hook shots and drawing double teams and passing out.

Defensively I prefer to guard stronger/bigger and slower players as fast players give me problems. I am a good help defender; not the best 1 on 1 defender.

My biggest weakness is being quite slow allthough I am a good ball handler.

[Monostradamus]

So let's everybody start over and be completely honest with the player you REALLY are out there on the court.

I'll start:

I'm a pretty good shooter, kinda streaky but when I'm hot I can't miss, tall and strong enough to play/defend in the post, decent rebounder but since I camp out at the 3point line so much I don't get nearly as many rebounds as I should, I can't dribble for shit, zero lateral quickness, fairly slow, and I'm not a great jumper but I can be deceptively good at it at times.

If I were to compare myself to any NBA player, it would be either Detroit era Rasheed Wallace or Tim Thomas.

Tbh current day DoK can't hoop for shit because my back is fucked up and my hip is slightly dislocated. I played against THAT honky Nic Foles a few weeks ago and got shat on. Idk who I'd even compare myself to right now. Even a few months ago when I was 25 pounds heavier than I am now, I was semi-useful and could anchor the interior D most of the time. Now because if my hip I can't even jump.

[joshdaboss]

Every time I play I hear "Nash", it never fails. A more accurate comparison would be Ginobili, since I'm left handed, all-around and herky jerky off the dribble, but people who watch the NBA casually I don't think would draw the conclusion, so it's Nash for them. I've heard Iverson once, which I was insulted by.

6', pretty versatile; I can score on the block, high post or a couple of steps behind the 3. Can regularly make 1 handed 3s, but I don't really take them in the game since I feel like people would get pissed off. Pretty athletic, I can grab the rim off a standing jump. I prefer to dish instead of score, I've had coaches and teammates tell me to be more aggressive a lot, but I also feel like I think the game better than they do, and I get the best shot possible for myself or a teammate, bottom line. Although, I would probably be seen as a better player if I were a ball hog, but that isn't my nature.

The Ginobili comparison means they play out of control. Ginobili just seems to, but he has a method to it. These ass clowns just play out of control and don't get anything out of it.

Well, I could have said that in my particular demographic, there is nobody I've found that can guard me without help. That, if these were rec league games, whoever is guarding me would most likely be fouled out at half time. Alas, I didn't say that. I gave an accurate, humble assessment of my game.

You wouldn't be able to lock me down, that much I could guarantee. You might be able to play decent defense, but that would depend on whether or not it's cool to handcheck and armbar or not. If not, I'd give you little-to-no chance.

[Bill_Brasky]

Well....I'll at least try to get his back on track....I'm 6'2 so I'm not the shortest dude on the court....tend to do a lot of rebounding and work my ass off on defense, I'm probably one of the better defenders as far as street ball goes, people rarely get by me, and I'm a great help defender too. I can knock down an open shot and handle the ball pretty decently too, so I can get to the rim and finish with either hand if I'm feelin it, but if I'm not I'll usually look to kick. Got a few post moves too, really been working on footwork lately, but like I said I make my value known by shutting down the other team's best player. Oh and I can dunk so people throw me a few alley's here and there.

I didn't say a thing about playing like Manu, and we have quite a few people in here who were honest about their games. I didn't say I was a exceptional ball player either. I just love the game, and I love to play it. I'm sure you feel the same.

I was honest about mine for sure. I can ball with the best of them. It's common for me to grab a rebound off the rim, take it full court and deliver the facial from about 12' out. Come fly with me. I'm 6'8, 257 and I have a receding hairline that I cover with a headband.

Shiiiiiiit dawg. I don't take no prisoners. You young'uns (more appropriate) wouldn't stand a chance. I lull you to sleep when I rock the cradle, I push the statue of liberty from the line and I will blow you away with my reverse windmill. If you try to take that weak ass shit to the rim, you will find yourself looking at the ceiling and the ball will be making it's way back to the other end.

I'm a like a combination of Vinny Del Negro and Ricky Davis. And much like Eddie House, I don't shy away from the big moments.

I try to facilitate and find my teammates cutting off screens and shit, when they do. I'm a decent passer and I'm a streaky shooter. If I get hot I can sink it from anywhere Kobe style. I try to rebound but I'm better at tipping it out to my taller teammates since I'm only 5'11.5"

[NBA Champs]

HAHAHAHA! I come back to see all you fuckers have got your second nuts! And why the fuck is Ginobli being uber trolled? Anyways, I was honest about my post..no reason to fucking lie. I'm not the most skilled basketball player--I use my athleticism to get by in all sports. I haven't played a damn game since 2009. I'm also a lot heavier now..around 195 in a 5'10-6ft body. I've been able to grab the rim since I was in 6th grade, but never could dunk. I've probably gained 20lbs since my last basketball game, but I'd still outwork my opponent. Hustle, grab boards, contest shots, run until I pass out, jump passing lanes, distribute the rock and get put backs is where I'd be most effective if I were to play today. Like I said earlier, when I'm in rhythm--I don't fucking miss, but that could take some time and I fucking hate losing and refuse to sacrifice a win for my own personal achievements on the court, so I rather just be a defense/hustle guy first.

[DMC]

LeBron James trolling? Poor.

I'm 6'7'', 250lbs. I'd say my game is most like Chuck Hayes, although back in high school people liked to call me Mini-Shaq and I still laugh about that. My play-making and defense relies almost entirely on my strength and my hustle rather than basketball know-how and strategies. I'll hustle my ass off and it's paid off against better players more often than not. I have somewhat of a mid-rage game and a catch-and-shoot, not really anything from deep, and my post game consists of bullying my opponents to under the rim or bank shots. The kids I ball with learned not to expect anything easy against me when I'm protecting the paint.

Still working on that jump shot and ball handling though. :king

[Red Hawk #21]

I'm 6'1, 180. My game is based on outsmarting the other team. I have decent handle, and a very good mid-range jumper. If my shots not falling I have a very good floater which I go to. I love to use my floater to demoralize defenders, they always jump as high as they can but I know how to get it up quickly so they can almost never block it. I also have a nice shot off the glass I use whenever I have an angle. And I have some nice pivots, step through moves and spin moves. I'm also willing to pass once the defense commits to me.

[DAF86]

:lol everybody is Ginobili

[DMC]

http://theassociation.blogs.com/the_association/Ginobili%20Jump.jpg

Real picture of me

[dunkman]

I'm 6'2" (in shoes), I play SG or SF. Can't play PG, never could. I have decent midrange fadeaway, step back and off the screen jumpers. I shot 3's from corner, not so well from the top. I shot much better on the run than spot on. I drive aggressively to the hoop for layups, prayers and finger roll, sometimes shot a fadeaway if the paint gets packed. Can improvise if near stripped the ball while driving. Near the basket have different post moves depending on the position, and counter moves from there, if I get near it's a basket. I assist decently. On defense it's mostly rebounding and steals, have very quick hands, some blocks from here to there.

However, now it's all slow, can't play too many minutes and can't jump as much as could when young.

[resistanze]

5'10", LeBron-like jumpshot (shitty and inconsistent), so my entire offensive game relies on explosive quickness to the rim, hops, and a decent post game. So fuck yes, I rely on athleticism.

Defense is much better than my offense, and I end up guarding the best wing player on the team and with my freakishly long wing span I end up getting a lot of blocks.

I'd say I'm a mix between Magic Johnson and Lew Alcindor.

[dunkman]

[TheRealCB]

I am almost 6'5 with shoes on,and a slightly larger wingspan at 6'7.I like to think myself as a homeless man's Shane Battier/Shawn Marion.I am always the best defender on the court,can guard from 1-4,and my only offensive skills are the open spot-up 3 and some post moves,nothing fancy.I also got a pretty good court vision,but since my handling sucks,I rarely get to show it.

I am very very unathletic(I can barely dunk :depressed ) so I rely on fundamentals and high BBIQ.I also tend to get very frustrated if I miss 3 or 4 consecutive 3's (rare) and start deffering way too much..

[DirkDoesWork]

How do I play pick-up ball?

I rely on my heart, determination and sub-par athleticism. I'm what you call an energy player. I have a high basketball I.Q., and I'm gutty.

In other words, I'm white.

Oh, and I'm that guy.

[ezau]

I'm a combo-guard ala JJ Redick. My three-point shot is inconsistent, but watch out for my mid-range game. I also use a lot of Euro-step and I love setting people up for open shots and easy layups.

I'll just break out the jeans shorts, plain white T-shirt (Billy Ho style from White Men Can't Jump) and just constantly kill them with the fundamentals. By time they're down 11-3 (going to 15), they're yelling at each other and shit and it's a wrap after that.

I think to even the playing field, every mavfan on ST should say we are all very tall while still maintaining excellent ball handling skills for our size and we are the master of the fadeaway, a move Dirk obviously invented.

[Red Hawk #21]

What I've been doing lately is combining fundamentals and streetball moves. I love to pass, and if I'm playing with guys who pass as well then I'll play a more fundamental kind of game. However, if I'm playing with guys who don't pass and against a team that hacks me I'm going streetball mode on them. I've been watching a lot of practice drills from Gannon Baker and Dre Baldwin. Gannon is great for fundamentals, and Dre teaches a lot of streetball moves that can be used pretty much anytime (Not the And 1 Bullshit). Anyway check out this video from Gannon Baker
