This team were charging right at us and drawing contact most of the time and just calling fouls whenever they missed. One guy was leading with his shoulder the whole time and initiating contact. Being pick up outdoors you can't exactly take a charge so the only option is to give a bit of contact back otherwise you'll fall over. The only way to beat them was literally not to give them the ball and score 5 straight to rotate to the next team. I don't get frustrated over pick up because it's just a game, but these guys were terrible to play with and people who take it more competitive were losing their tempers.
man, where are you located? sounds like these fools have no class no self respect for basketball sportsmanship. i used to play pick up games in the ghetto parts of town in sfbay and if you play bullshit bully ball, creating hard contact and try to call foul they'd laugh at your dumbass and if you continue to do it, they'll do the same shit back to you twice as hard. that's how you shutdown the idiots. the players that creates contact and calls pussy fouls are absolutely the worse. they are despicable trash.
ps, how tall are you?
pps, i also find DL easy compare to SQ. right now 100kg SQ feels hard, and 120kg feels pretty darn easy.
