I hate playing with the guy who always adds points to his team and subtracts points from the opposing team.
I play comp with a bunch of guys who do this all the time. I am the centre and play hard D, work the boards, do all the tough stuff, then I flash to open key space and get that look. , last season I shot 57%, and they won't pass me the ball? They all shoot about 35%! I'm starting to get jack of it.

Found another type of player that annoys me yesterday. The drive to the hoop and throw up a prayer boy. Yesterday this guy would drive constantly going into double and triple teams and throw up a prayer missing every time. He can shoot 3s.... sometimes but other than that throws up crap.
Luck would have it that we had too many people and all the guards got subbed out on one rotation (every 3 baskets we'd sub) and we had to watch this guy for like 10 minutes before we got back in. Pass the f'in ball to someone open! end of rant...
ball hogs are the worst especially when there is open people all around. this really short dude used to play with us and he thought he was a balla. dude would drive all the time, never wait for his team mates to catch up and then miss layup after layup or shot after shot. he would also call foul nonstop and you better not call foul on him because he'd claim otherwise and try to spin it.
i hated playing with the dude and after a while i refused to be on his team. it was a one man show and he never got anything done. i'd rather pass the ball around until someone is open than to take ill-advised shots and ruin any hope at winning.
I had a friend who was a chucker and I really never wanted to be teammates with him. The worst part of it all is probably is that he always wants me to be his teammate because he knows that I am pass-first and would always look to set the table. The guy goes 1-on-5 on a fastbreak and he pisses the whole team off. When he gets the ball, we just buckle up for the rebound play because we're sure that the ball won't be coming back to us.
God, so ing annoying.
I'm a chucker, but that's 'cause all the other players on my team suck.
you can probably get away with it when obviously if you're like the kobe bryant to a smush parker, brian cook, kwame brown and vladimir radmanovic
The "chucker's creedo"............
I only take shots I am confident of making. Now I sound like a chucker.
Spoken like a true chucker!
Don't forget another archetype found out there, the Rodman.
The Rodman is relatively rare, but can be almost as frustrating as the Chucker or Bobby Knight guys.
The Rodman all but refuses to shoot the ball. He'll do everything else and can usually do those things well. But for some reason, he stubbornly refuses to shoot. He's wide open for a jumper, you're boxing out, all of a sudden the ball hits you in the back of the head because he was trying to find you for a "better look."
Three on one fastbreak, he gets the ball in the middle for an easy layup... and he kicks the ball out to the wing for a 15-foot jumpshot. Huh?
Drives to the hoop, defense doesn't react... and he turns it over throwing a jump pass from the low block.
I tell you, those Rodmans can be a terribly disrupting force.
I'm not sure if the guy I'm complaining about is a chucker. His volume was not that high, but every shot he got would be a poor shot. This time all the offensive players were out getting bored to death and he got more opportunities to have the ball.
i'd take a rodman archetype rather than a chucker. it's easier to tell someone to shoot the ball or "hey, that's your shot. shoot the god damn ball" in comparison to "hey you have four teammates, maybe you want to pass the ball"
The Rodman is a nuisance, but he's way down the list on that food chain. The chucker, the superstar wannabe and ball don't lie guy are all way worse.
The only time a Rodman annoys me is if there's more than one of them on my team at the same time.
I don't mind playing with a chucker, because I really suck
Thanks for the Kobe-Phil Jackson's conversation transcript
they get as annoying as a chucker when you ask them to shoot and they shoot all these wtf shots
Maybe I'm the only one but I love playing with a chucker because I have less opportunities to show how bad I suck.
let me shoot straight with ya...get some ing game and you won't have to about .Only cats that get no respect post like this. See only soldiers play on my squad I don't have to say to them because they know where they're spot is on the court. Only guys that get ted on like you would post some like this. Koolaid..me... I just bump you in the lane and shoot a quick J over the top. Kind of like Kobe with the pump fake AND 1...the leg extension usally gives me clearance. I pattern my game after Kobe so in this play if Kenyon was gaurding me I would not have spin back into the lane like Kobe did I would have drew the AND 1 fading away...
Since you're a troll and haven't been able to switch to the heat, I imagine it's safe to assume your shoe laces are untied and it's highly likely you trip most of the time going up or down the court. It's also a given you probably stumble when talking and are posting from a public computer.
whatever Mofo...you're the that can't get no run on the court...I see your kind all the time pa-rousing the side-lines asking people who got next!!! Like I said get some game and you can run that ...stop ing online about getting scrubbed..that's a pussy move...
if im playin with a chucker, i let him know by either not passing the ball to him, or i chuck upa shot, or no 100% commitment...hence if he pisses me off? i will attempt to block his shots
thats why i prefer to play 21 instead, every man for himself
