thats all true. i mean i dnt think there is that much streetball hype in australia but when ppl see those moves they wanna do them instead, i know i do! but u gotta do fundamentals first, i didnt but now i have and have gotten lotz better AND now i have taught myself streetball moves while still doing fundamentals. id say streetball is a culture, u go and play on the streets at the court, u no 2 on 2 or whatever nd u enjoy the game, but u do that every day. and then u do the And1 moves. nba and and1 are two completely different styles, they shouldnt be looked at like brothers but instead like cousins, there the same but with a twist

Great post. There's one more difference though. NBA players can shoot, lots of streetballers can't.
Personally, I think that's the main difference other than the legal moves part.

At the end of the day we should just love the game, no matter what form it is in.
