Streetball!!!!!
#1
Who is not only a fan of watching basketball but of playing it nearly every spare moment of their time? <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Biggrin' />



I for one, play as much as possible, and now with the summer in effect the weather is perfect to be playing from 17:30 until 22:30 \o/ (with floodlighting!)

I love to play it, but i play it once a week maybe. Just for fun, mostly, easy, slow games with joking and hitting from half of the court, cause that is our style <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' />

We have a game, mostly called "the bank". It is very interesting, so i love to play that everytime i am on court <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Biggrin' /> And i love beer <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Biggrin' />

Normally I play twice a week with my friends. Unlike Led00, we always play seriously even if it's 1 vs. 2 (which happens quite often tbh <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Biggrin' /> ).

I love playing on my free time, I play 1-3 times a week (depends on the free time i have..)

If you're not serious you better not be on my team <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Biggrin' /> I tend to get angry when my teammates don't take the game seriously <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' /> I shout at them, they shout at me, very relaxing quality time with friends <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' />

^ HAHAHAHAHAHAHA



That sounds exactly like me! I can't stand it when my teammates are looking down at the floor dribbling and they don't see a backdoor or make a good pass on another teammates split into the basket! I'm actually a bit annoyed that the streetball level in Thessaloniki isn't as hardcore as it should be; the competition is usually quite mediocre; the guys that play in teams are mortified to death that they'll hurt themselves irreversibly on the concrete courts outside and so never risk playing outside with other people <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' />



Anyway I'm off on my way right now! I'll be back by midnight here <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Cool' />

Lol, that is because we r Artists, musicians, and our sport condition died years ago <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' />

Also love playing serious basketball, but I am not that good to play with the guys that r always there, and my friends from the academy r just not made for sport, so I am too good for them <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' /> So, we find compromise and have fun <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Biggrin' /> and beer...

My favourite place to go play, is a place where there is a collection of 20 full basketball courts, i.e. 40 baskets, and now in the summer where it is hot and sunny every day, the place is ABSOLUTELY FULL. Sometimes you have to wait 30-45 minutes to get a court to free itself!

I play it kinda often. I don't care what format we're playing (1x1, 2x2 or 3x3) but every time it's fun <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' /> if weather is very hot then we play just for fun. (:

I don't think so. It's not about amount of players, but about game style and rules. <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' /> That bullshit of format is like a joke.

How is that a joke?



I just mentioned that 3 x 3 has the minimum number of people playing, so people will move their backsides and not sit around just waiting to be passed the ball so they can shoot. Combination plays make the most satisfying game, for me at least.

Who cares how many players are playing? <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Biggrin' /> I don't care about stupid things like that - if I play basketball outside with streetball rules then for me it's streetball. All my life I played basketball and I can say - there's no difference.

I'm stating a personal preference, there's no need to be a dick about it. And yes, I've played basketball most of my life as well.

I can confirm this. We were playing vs some German midgets in Berlin and in 10 minutes he was choking and quit. <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bag.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Bag' />



I hope I find some time in the summer to shoot some hoops, but with a 12 hours work, it will be a challenge.
Respect and thanks for everything:
