Game post-
This game sucked. New team and new comp. The opposition didn't know how to play. As in seriously didn't know how to play. The refs went easy on them and they traveled a lot, heaps of double dribbles, lots and lots of threes from god know where. It was 45-3 after the first half and we ended up winning 71-8.
wtf? that's awful. LMFAO.
i'd call travel on them every single time. learn to play the game. if someone cant dribble, pass. they could have gone naismith old peach crate style and just passed non-stop without dribbling. lol.
Side note- I never realised how much of an art form alley oop passing is. I almost think you need to be either- highly skilled or a dunker to know or appreciate where to pass it. Last night they threw me about 8 alleys and all were either about 6ft off the ground or bullets that no one had a chance at catching. Even in the other team I play with who are more skilled have no concept of how or where to pass them.
back when i hooped, i threw tons of alleys and i never got anywhere close to dunking back then. so just decent passer i imagine. also tho, i threw alleys to people i've played with before. doubt i threw an alley oop to someone i never played with.. so having that experience playing with someone probably helps.
