Tricks aren't bad, I'm saying... messing someone up but not getting the basket is just lame...

Let's say there are two guys.

One has all the streetball tricks, handles, but he loses the ball every time he passes it and has no J at all.

Another is a fundamental player, doesn't do any streetball tricks, but he always gives you a W. He's got a jump shot, and gets it in.

Which one would you want on your team?

It pisses me off alot when I see streetball wannabes step on the court and do all their streetball tricks, but when you see them shoot, it doesn't even touch the rim.

Your turn.
ya, i agree with this. if u wanna get better as a bball player, then u have to play to win and not to just show off.

because the only way u can become a better streetball player is to be a better bball player, so you cant just do tricks all day on everyone u play. if i wanna school somebody up, i usually target crappy defenders or friends of mine when im fooling around, but otherwise i play to win.

if you're in a serious pickup game, you honestly shouldnt do anything stupid. u might think u look good, but really u look like an idiot because every1 else is trying to win and not hog the rock or anything. im not hatin on streetball, i love streetball, but even in streetball u have to kno how to win.
