I was guarding this buff old black guy playing PG for the other squad and I was playing off of him the whole time because he could not shoot. He pulled up for like 4 threes and half of them actually bricked and bounced over the backboard. So yeah, defense working out well. Dude calls for a foul or and-one every damn time he drives inside and manages to score like 3-4 times through the game. This old guy on my team gets pissed at me and tells me to stick up on him.

Because playing up on a guy that can't shoot and can only drive is the smartest thing in the world. Gawd.

And then I played my friend one-on-one up to 21 and won 21-20. Whoooooo

Hate playing with low IQ players, the worst is when playing with horrible defenders who only try on offense smfh.

Played with my Kobe V's for the first time, first shot: swish. 8-)

One of the worst games I played was with 3 of my friends and this random tall guy we picked up. We told him we were gonna play 2-3 zone, he was supposed to be in the middle. This moron NEVER ran back on defense and wanted the ball every time on offense. And he thought he was some PG or something trying to do all this fancy stuff and kept turning the ball over.

Low IQ guys suck. Also bad are the dudes that continuously call fouls every damn time. Or randomly yell out And-One while throwing up some random shot that gets all backboard.

Tonight was the most fun I've ever had at a baseball game. Not because of the play on the field, but because of this crazy, drunk bitch in front of us. I don't think I've ever laughed that much in a three hour span in my life. Good times.

omg, I hate Kobe's aka ball hoggers. Also, I hate the people who get on your back just for missing a basket or a missed assignment, especially when they aren't that good at basketball. I can take constructive criticism but not from retards. :lol:

How good are you at balling?

Yeah, I hate those guys.

I'm pretty solid, do a little bit of everything out there. When running 5's, I usually focus on defense because I've always been pretty good on that end. On offense, I usually run around and catch-and-shoot, kinda like Ray Allen, super quick release is what my friends tell me haha. If it's two on two, I end up doing a lot more offensively because I'm pretty quick and catch guys off-guard with either a drive or a quick pull-up. Also deceptively athletic is what me and Imu's cousin get a lot. People can't fathom athletic brown people. :lol:

So yeah, solid all-around I suppose. I can hold my own out there 8-)

And yeah, if I mess up on the court I don't mind guys grilling me for it. It's just when guys are obnoxious and try to coach during a pickup game I get pissed off.

I also hate going to the park and then getting picked up for a 5 on 5 where everyone else on the team knows eachother and you don't know any of them. I end up never even touching the ball on offense even though I get open like every possession.

QFT, so freaking annoying, thinking they're Phil Jackson or something. We should ball it up one of these days during summer. :rockon:

Imadogg · Post #670 » by **Imadogg** » Sat Jun 4, 2011 11:09 am

Not much for once. Went down around $70 but ended up only losing $15. Then spent $9.50 on Jack in the Box (spicy chicken, large curly fries, 6 mozzarella sticks.. it was my 2nd meal of the day.

The pigeons woke me up this morning. I heard chirping and determined it's a family with new baby pigeons.

So what are you going to do?

Gek · Post #675 » by **Gek** » Sat Jun 4, 2011 1:01 pm

I called the landlord. Said something about it happening before and trying to get someone out today to look at it. I'll probably have to call them another few times before they send anyone.

Fail.

You're basically living in the wilderness when you think about it. Birds, bugs, animals of roommates, (weed) plants. Go find a loincloth and rename yourself Tarzan.

At least you have 9 out of the 10 guys going down court. In Hawaii, there are guys who think they are cool playing half court, so smaller people (like me, I play with them anyway and get roughed up sometimes..lol) can't play anything, yet on every possession only 6 people run up, while 4 of them stay down and suck air...pisses me off.

Also, RIOT, I left TLN, not you. I still post there rarely, but I browse here more. Less Morons. lol

My house back home is in the woods so I'm really used to it all. Bugs, animals and weeds are all second nature.

Still not a fan of spiders though. There are A LOT of spiders in the woods.

Wtf...first time I've ever heard of someone living in the woods. Did you live in a log cabin?

Why haven't you been on as much Base?
