Have you ever played streetball before
― 乒乓, Tuesday, 12 November 2013 04:24 (ten years ago) link
yes, it's a video of a dude hitting 4 shots, what is the significance
― twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 12 November 2013 04:28 (ten years ago) link
Well
If you don't get it then you just don't get it
― 乒乓, Tuesday, 12 November 2013 04:34 (ten years ago) link
Okay so
If you have ever played streetball in a city like Philly or NYC you will get it
But I'll try to explain
Dude is clearly only there so that they can play 4 on 4 or w/e without the number being uneven
Nobody on either team expects him to do anything except stand there and maybe grab a rebound if the ball comes to him
(With the expectation that he will immediately pass the ball to his good, capable teammates when he gets it)
With that setup in mind
I'll let you fill in the blanks

dayo i understand how pickup basketball works, in fact i just played it tonight, a random dude catching fire is something that happens like once a night. i was wondering why this video was popular enough to have caught your attention. and why there happened to be a guy filming the whole thing

You found me out

If you look at that video and all you can think is "a random dude catching fire"
Then I gotta wonder what kind of pickup basketball are you really playing
Who are your opponents
Must be nice and easy

i mean it'd be one thing if he walked into a really good game and did that, but he was playing with scrubs, it's not like there was a huge talent difference

It's not shameful to admit you guys don't get streetball
dayo i have played so much more basketball than you, but please actually explain why this random video blew your mind
― twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 12 November 2013 18:34 (ten years ago) link
i mean yes the guy was not a good player, him hitting those 4 shots in a row was somewhat improbable for sure

It's more about streetball culture
That happening is a legit funny occurrence at any of the courts I grew up playing at
I dunno how they do things around where you are
