That's illegal in basketball?
what kinda bull es is that?
If your feet, either one or both stays planted and you toss the ball in the air and not move your foot and catch it, I don't see how that can be illegal.
That is ridiculous.
That is my fake shot move. Cheezes...
-
Didn't I tell you that was illegal (on many courts anyways) a really long time ago? You don't listen.

Just for fun, let's explain why many people see this as illegal...
1. It's an illegal self pass. In many games, once the ball leaves the players hands, the ball either has to be touched by another player, rim, or backboard before the player can possess it again. Or, the ball simply needs to be dribbled.
2. It's an air ball. A lot of people play by NBA rules, and a player can't retrieve his/her own shot. If it is not an air ball, then it is a self pass. See above.
This has nothing to do with your feet.
There are some games where such a move might be allowed.
-
I don't understand how it can be a self pass.
You haven't gained and ground or distance if your feet are planted and say you tossed the ball up in the air and you catch it and your feet haven't moved at all.
How can that be illegal.
That's just a ridiculous rule in my opinion.
In any case! I'm sticking to my blacktop basketball roots!
-
Consider this
You get the ball after a pass or inbound. Everyone is way over there at the other half of the court so there is no need to get fancy. You flip the ball in a spin in front of you so when it hits the floor, it bounces back to you for a dribble. Self pass or what?

Have you dribbled after gaining that possession?
-
I bounced the ball with two hands and stopped, but I didn't move my feet nor gained any distance. Why is this illegal?
I took 5 dribbles. Stopped. Dribbled again in place. Stopped. I didn't move my feet nor gained any distance. Why is this illegal?
I sat down with the ball. Then I stood up. Dribbled once. Sat down again. Stood up again. I didn't move my feet nor gained any distance. Why is this illegal?
That's just a ridiculous rule in my opinion.
In any case! I'm sticking to my blacktop basketball roots!
-
I just asked all the guys in this classroom and they said it's illegal.
But I'm still gonna do it!
-
I dribble with two hands. Guys in the class say it is illegal, but I am still going to do it.
-
Have you dribbled after gaining that possession?
No, there is no advantage gained.
Like I said...
Let me try to paint the picture.
Let's imagine you're on the court.
You're wearing shoes.
You have super glue on your shoes.
They are stuck on the court.
You can't move your feet at all.
You receive a pass.
You catch it.
You hold the ball in your hands.
You throw the ball up in the air about a feet and it comes back down and you catch it.
Obviously your feet hasn't moved.
And that's illegal?
That's what I'm talking about.
I don't understand the point in that being illegal.
You've gained no advantage over the team.
YOu didn't illegally advance the ball.
-
Now I seen some other stuff I seen that I think should be illegal.
I've seen people catch the ball and then hop to the side and then take a shot.
That's a travel in my opinion. I seen it in the NBA!
If I'm spot up shooting, I always plant my feet as I recieve the pass.
I see other's if they are spot up shooting and they receive the pass and then hop to the side a bit and then shoot...
What is up with that? That's a travel if I even seen anyone. They didn't even dribble the ball once.
That's going to be legal? You gain an advantage where as the move I'm doing is not gaining any advantage is illegal?
-
Jame's harden's step back, that's a travel if I ever seen one.
I can see a way you can do that where it's not a travel, but the way he's doing it, it's a travel in my books!
-
And you "fake shooting" is not an advantage? Stop contradicting yourself.
-
Plus... how can it be a self pass?
To pass a ball any ball is to get the ball from one place to another.
But you haven't even gain any distance.
If I was to hold the ball in one hand and drop it down to my other hand, that's a pass?
Makes no sense.
-
Yes, moving something from one hand to the other hand is a pass.

-
Why is this so hard for you to understand? For as much as you talk about how awesome you are at basketball, you don't know the basics.
-
Not my fault if you get turned around.
It falls in the same category as no look pass, fake pass, pump fakes, crossover, in and out, behind the back dribble, etc etc.. all of those are used to "trick" the opponent...
we have not walked, we have not travelled, we have not double dribble, not fouled all we did was make the opponent embarassed...
I'm assuming it's illegal becuase it's "cheating".... but how can you be cheating if you don't even gain an advantage?
-
I'm still doing it!
Why?
Well it's simple!
We'll all probably never play any "real" basketball ever.
Maybe a few "organized" here and there for tournaments.. and even then! It's not "real" basketball...
Why do I say it's not real? Becuase it's like.. people are going to foul, nobody's going to call a foul... nobody care's to call a foul, at least I don't, I mean... what's the point? Pick up game and someone's going to call a foul? What are they expecting? Free throws? C'mon man, really? A chance to reset and take the ball out of bounds? <--just means you're weak and horrible in the paint/driving to the basket. Always crack me up in pick up games... someone gets "fouled" going in for the lay up and they yell foul and stop play and stumble around holding the ball...I mean... what is that?
That's that weak play...Maybe I just grew up in a different era, I never called fouled and I always still try to make the shot.
So to relate that to my point is...
the reason why I'm still going to do it is..
it's becuase what's the point in trying to play a game "officially" when there's no officials and when the game is not even official.
Don't get me wrong, I'd still like the game to be good, but not all like official bball game.
I do know how to play basketball!
I probably just dont know how to play Hmong basketball that's being played like they are trying to be a legit official game even when it's just a pickup game.
-
Like... really... who calls a kick ball in a pick up game?
You going to call that?
No, that's either an out on the person who kicked it or if the ball is still in play, it's free grabs to whoever get's it.
-
OMG. You really don't get it.
1. It is illegal on many courts. The ball can't leave your hands and you getting it back unless: it touches someone, it touches the backboard/rim, or your dribble it. Get over it.
2. It does not fall in the same category as those other moves. That is like me saying, "My double dribble falls in the category."
If you want to play your own version of basketball, then go ahead. But, don't have some crazy notion that you are following the rules.
Not my fault if you get turned around.

Lots of people call kick ball.

No, that's either an out on the person who kicked it or if the ball is still in play, it's free grabs to whoever get's it.
-
You can keep doing it, but it still won't make it legal.
The sad part is that you sound like a scrub. Good players often let scrubs get away with illegal moves because they sukk. For example, I don't call double dribble on scrubs because they sukk. When scrubs step out of bounds, I don't care because they sukk. ETC.
-
That's a pass

Well sounds like I'm just as good but ummm... I got tricks!
If I don't call fouls what makes you think I'll call a double, a step outta bound, etc etc.. especially if it's someone who's not good.
I don't even call it on "good" players.. I rather just play on.
If I don't call fouls on myself, what makes you think I'll care about petty stuff?
People who are always stopping play for petty stuff and "fouls"....goes back to what I was saying, their game is weak.
Even if the game is close and tight, and even agianst "good" players I'm not going to call petty stuff.
I don't know who you play basketball with, but I don't normally end up playing with hmong folks.
Who are you playing agianst?
I rarely get a chance to play agianst hmongs anymore. I wouldn't know how I stack up agianst hmong folks.
I wouldn't say I'm a scrub, but I do play like one becuase I don't want to get hurt.
Do you draw doubles? Who are you playing agianst?
You're probably those folks that's "man, we lost becuase they weren't a hmong team"... or "man we lost becuase they had that big black guy" or "dang, if they didn't have that tall white guy"...
-
HAHAHAHAHA. That picture actually proves you wrong.
Sure you can say you "pass" the ball from one hand to another but my point was, there's no advantage...
Where's the advantage?
What advantage did I gain? Nothing.
-
It is not about me vs. you. But, there is a difference between me and you: I don't self pass and try to argue that it is legal. I don't need to break the rules when I play.

So you finally admit that it is a pass. How long will it take you to see the advantage? :2funny:

What advantage did I gain? Nothing.

I know what you're thnking!
You're thinking like how them folks in the auto forum thinks.
Let me jsut say all my basketball stories are real.
Just like my racing stories.
anyways.. it's not a "pass", it's a juggle, but folks like you will want to get all word nazi and say it's a pass.
Hence why i put it in parantheses.
-
Do you realize that your basketball stories actually make you look bad?

It's not a double dribble, I just dribbled with my hands together. What's the problem?
-
Lets just be honest here, you just jealous I'm better!
-
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Do we need to explain why your own stories make you look bad?
Lets just be honest here, you just jealous I'm better!
-
See the difference between you and me as a player is..
You're type that is like "I scored 32 points, had 15 rebounds, 5 steals, 8 assists"
I'm the type that's like "I broke 3 ankles, left that guy swatting the air with the reverse, 2 no look passes, real no look passes, "did you see that pass I threw over my head to you without looking becuase I knew you was going to be down there anyways!?!!?", 3 fadeaway's, and did you see how I set up that guy making he think he'd get the ball and faked him out?!"
That's the difference between you and me.
That pretty much sum's it all.
-
HEy, I can't help it if my basketball stories are true.
-
HAHAHAHAHA.
Insulting me does not make you correct on the topic. Making assumptions about what I value does not help you. Throwing the ball into the air and catching it is still considered illegal on many courts.
And BTW, if you had any comprehension, you would have realized that I enjoy and play all kinds of basketball with various rules. You don't seem to understand that rules change from court to court. Your "fake shot" is illegal on many courts. Get over it already.

No one said they weren't true. The stories just make you look bad. Let's break down a few of those stories...
1. You played against a scrub, and you lost. What does that make you?
2. You insult a player who is shooting well with typical form. You use a different form, and you don't shoot as well. What does that make you?
3. The game is on the line, and you give up and let the player score. What does that make you?
4. You were dribbling the ball up with no defender, and you lost the ball. What does that make you?
The list goes on. These are all your stories.

1. You played against a scrub, and you lost. What does that make you?
So you would win agianst a scrub? What kind of win is that? I don't know about you, but I couldn't look at myself right if I beat a scrub. I guess you can.
2. You insult a player who is shooting well with typical form. You use a different form, and you don't shoot as well. What does that make you?
Actually my "form" works pretty good for me. I just said that that other form actually does work as well.
3. The game is on the line, and you give up and let the player score. What does that make you?
Agian, these are pick up games and I have nothing to gain from them. There's no point in winning. I'm not going to foul a guy and hurt him, I'm assuming you would? It's a pick up game, chill.
4. You were dribbling the ball up with no defender, and you lost the ball. What does that make you?
I don't think I ever said that. Did I ? cite the source and context.
The list goes on. These are all your stories.
If we can relate this to fishing...
If you can understand why folks catch and release...then you can understand why I play the way I do.
I'm a catch and release type of person..
You're a take everything home you catch kinda person...
That's the difference and that's why you can't understand why I play the way I do it seems.
You're those people cursing me for throwing fishes back in the water instead of giving them away or keeping them.
-
Your stories do not make you look good. Don't be all mad at me for simply retelling your stories back to you.

I know my basketball stories sound outlandish but they're true.
Maybe you just spiteful you never got a chance to play agianst "players" like I have.
I normally don't end up playing agianst hmong people.
I encounter all sorts of basketball players. I know where I fit in and where my level's at.
But I do have rare instances I end up playing agianst someone who actually plays some legit basketball.
You too can have basketball stories too, just stop playing with hmong folks.
Just look at all the video's I post of those hmong basketball. Playing agianst hmongs won't get your game any better.
Our talent pool is limited, our athleticism is limited(from what I see in the videos)....
YOu may be just a shooter, I don't know but that kinda game won't get you any stories like mine.
Stories are true!!!!
True true true!!
Now I feel like remiscing!
Anyways... back in the day.. true story..
I went for a lay up/shot thing.. anyways... I know I'm small so people will try to block me. So I went up... hung in the air and held the ball up there, the dude came for the block thought he timed it right and ended up flying by and swatting air and his younger brother was like "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhh"....so basically I made his younger brother clown on him! This dude appearantly played for a college, it's not a big name college but I've heard of it. I mean, I straight up killed this dude and his brother who he said supposely played for the high school. He talked trash to my cousin, but he never talked trash to me. The dude was a whole foot taller than me!
True story.
-
Your retelling of my stories are so generic they could just be made up.
Even I could make some generic story of yours that would be true.
You missed a shot.
YOu got fouled.
YOu had a steal.
Man you made yourself a fool. Those are your stories.
-
No one said your stories are not true. In fact, we take your stories as true. That is why we say you don't look good in your own stories.

True story.
-
Do you realize that your stories are posted on here? We can just go back and look. In fact, look at the story in this very thread. You think throwing the ball up in the air and catching is not illegal. Everyone is telling you that many people consider it illegal. You just mad.
Your retelling of my stories are so generic they could just be made up.
Even I could make some generic story of yours that would be true.
You missed a shot.
YOu got fouled.
YOu had a steal.
Man you made yourself a fool. Those are your stories.
-
So you're telling me, you would steal a ball from a person you know who is not better than you?
You would foul a person you know is not better than you to win a game if it's close?
That's what I'm getting from you.
Like I said, you the type to take the fish home, I'm the type to catch and release.
-
You'd probably block a girl too.
Dang, that's .... to intense for me.
-
I know you said you won't call a double dribble, but lets be honest, you the type to call it.
And you the type to call a foul if you was making a game winning shot but it didn't go in.
Not me, i'm the type if I got fouled and it didn't go in, hope to get the rebound, if not play some hard Defense for a second or so and depending on how tired I am and how much they run around let them just score or hope for a missed shot so we can get the ball back.
-
You just mad you don't have any tricks!
-
You the type that .. if you stop your dribble and guarded hard, you'd be looking to pass and keep looking and looking and looking..
I'm the type that if I stopped my dribble, I'd look for the pass but then if I can't find it, I'm like "man screw this, I'm bouncing it off the defender" and then I bounce it off the defender and get my dribble back.
Your type will never understand my type!
-
You be so mad. HAHAHAHA. Since you are just posting like crazy, let's sum up...
1. No matter how much you want to make this about You vs. Me, it doesn't change the fact that many people consider your "fake shot" move to be illegal.
2. Your own stories make you look awful. You keep saying that you are better than the people you are playing against, but it sounds like they think you sukk. Again, this is your own story. We're not writing this, you are. Sorry to break it to you.
3. Making random assumptions about me is completely pointless. It doesn't support you at all.
-
You the type to never behind the back pass and think it's stupid.
I'm the type that behind the back pass becuase it's actually part of the repitoire.
-
I'm not mad, you're mad.
You just mad becuase I do the fake shot and you don't understand why.
You don't get it.
Ok ok....
To best make you understand yourself....
I'll pose you this question....
We're playing a game, it's tied, I have the ball and I do the fake shot on you...
YOu're calling it right?
Let's admit it, you're calling it a travel and stopping play and will argue it.
Me? If someone did that to me, I'd just let game play on, they fake shot me and then able to score on me, well that's my fault for falling for that trick.
See, that's the difference between you and me.
So you're calling it huh?
-
I know you won't even answer the question...
after you just got done saying you'd never call those kinda stuff on other people.
But the truth is, you're the type that'd call it.
-
Let's examine why your own stories make you look bad.
You claim to be a versatile and experienced player who has played on many courts against many types of players. But, you fail to realize that many courts and players consider your move illegal. If you were truly as versatile and experienced, you would know this. But, you don't know this.
And it keeps going...
You recently claimed to have learned a new game, Knockout. That is such a common game played across the country. No one is judging you for this because everyone starts learning somewhere. But, you simply aren't what you think you are.
And it keeps going...but what's the point?
-
If you call it, you're a sore loser or in your terms a scrub.
If you don't call it... well lets just be honest, you'll call it.
You would be so mad that I "travelled"....
-
What's your question? It just seems like you are ranting.
I know you won't even answer the question...
after you just got done saying you'd never call those kinda stuff on other people.
But the truth is, you're the type that'd call it.
-
I see you avoiding my question Mr Take All The Fish Home!
-
You want me to answer the fish question? That's weird, but okay...
I don't fish.
I see you avoiding my question Mr Take All The Fish Home!
-
I just asked you! You can't read either it seems.
So you said it appear's I'm a scrub.
YOu said you wouldn't call travels, double dribble, etc etc on people who aren't that good.
So if I'm a scrub, I guess you're saying I'm not that good, you actually said I'm probably not that good.
So the scenerio is...
We play a game, it's tied, last point wins.
I have the ball, I "fake" shot you, and then I'm able to score.
Are you going to call a travel on me and stop game and take away the point and ask for the ball?
Let's be honest, you the type that will.
-
Yeah, just keep avoiding the question.
That's how I know you mad.
-
You can keep doing it, but it still won't make it legal.
The sad part is that you sound like a scrub. Good players often let scrubs get away with illegal moves because they sukk. For example, I don't call double dribble on scrubs because they sukk. When scrubs step out of bounds, I don't care because they sukk. ETC.
You said it not me!
SO ARE YOU CALLING MY "TRAVEL"??
-
You are just ranting, but I'll play along and answer them all. However, I will make a prediction: After answering all your questions, it will not change the fact that many people view your fake shot move to be illegal.
Yes, you appear to be a scrub. I am not saying that you actually are because I don't know you. I am just saying your stories make you appear to be a scrub.
I wouldn't call illegal moves on people who sukk. In fact, I call nothing. I play by whatever everyone else wants to play by. The only calls I might make are fouls I do onto others.
Any more questions? And look, your fake shot move is still considered illegal. :2funny:
I just asked you! You can't read either it seems.

I guess this is where you end up dissappearing from the posts...
Or you "still don't know what question" you're suppose to answer.

If you are playing against me personally, no. But, that doesn't change the fact that many other people will.
Any more questions? :2funny:
You said it not me!
SO ARE YOU CALLING MY "TRAVEL"??
-
Ask away, it won't change that you are still wrong.
I guess this is where you end up dissappearing from the posts...
Or you "still don't know what question" you're suppose to answer.
-
You are just ranting, but I'll play along and answer them all. However, I will make a prediction: After answering all your questions, it will not change the fact that many people view your fake shot move to be illegal.
Yes, you appear to be a scrub. I am not saying that you actually are because I don't know you. I am just saying your stories make you appear to be a scrub.
I wouldn't call illegal moves on people who sukk. In fact, I call nothing. I play by whatever everyone else wants to play by. The only calls I might make are fouls I do onto others.
Any more questions? And look, your fake shot move is still considered illegal. :2funny:
So now it's all "smiley emoticon's" and all "man I was just kidding around" and all "well I don't know for sure you're a scrub after I called you one" and all "well I would have to see you play first before I can really comment"....
I see you're still avoiding the question!
-
Why are you avoiding the biggest question that's in big block bold print??
If you say you still don't know... then well, it says alot about you!
-
You are so busy ranting, that you failed to realize that I answered your bold question already. Should I answer again?

Just admit it! Just say it!
You will call the "travel".
You'll be more at peace!
After all, we're just trying to see the type of player you are only anyways. Appearantly the type of player that will take the fish home.

Well you didn't make it clear.
But LOL!
You know you lying! You know you'd call it!
And I know it stings to know that you had to swallow your pride and lie that you wouldn't call it!
But don't worry, I've gained no distance or space on you so it's no real advantage!
So according to you now I'm officially a scrub!
This is cracking me up!
I'm a scrub!
Dang! Winning an arguement is so much to you that you'd swallow your pride and belief's to just win! See I knew it! You'd do whatever it takes becuase you're the type to take the fish home!

Consider this
You get the ball after a pass or inbound. Everyone is way over there at the other half of the court so there is no need to get fancy. You flip the ball in a spin in front of you so when it hits the floor, it bounces back to you for a dribble. Self pass or what?
No it's not, they are actually doing that already in the NBA. Chris Paul does it.
-
HAHAHAHA. You don't seem to realize that I already described how I play in another thread, and it is not what you think. :2funny:
The truth is that I wouldn't call it. Since you are begging to know more about me, I'll tell you....
I travel quite a bit, and I try to play everywhere I go. I always bring a pair of shoes and basketball everywhere I go. I played different colleges, parks, east coast, west coast, Midwest, China, Korea, Japan, Serbia, and more. Basketball is basketball, but they all play by slightly different rules. You don't call fouls playing outdoors in Chicago, but players will call touch fouls at Duke. You can hand check in many parks in America, but it's virtually completely hands off in Asia. During certain times at Ruker, they do And 1. Thus, I don't call anything.
And here is a funny story just for you. You mentioned about "bouncing the ball off the defender." I was in Japan playing 1v1 against a bigger guy, and I did that move. He called a travel on me. I let him have it. The story is funny because you were so whiny that I wouldn't do such a move.
And after all of this, your move is still considered illegal by many. :2funny:
Just admit it! Just say it!
You will call the "travel".
You'll be more at peace!
After all, we're just trying to see the type of player you are only anyways. Appearantly the type of player that will take the fish home.
-
The funny thing about you listing all those moves is that those moves are nothing new and special. People have been doing them for decades. They are just new and special to you.
And guess what, your fake shot is still considered illegal by many.
-
Any more questions before I wrap all this up? Because I made a prediction a while back. If you are out of questions, let's see if my prediction is true. :2funny:
-
All I know is I'm a scrub so I probably don't know much.
Trust me, I'm not dying to know more about you.
I just wanted to point out to you you're the type to take all the fish home!
I'm the type that catch and release.
Let's be honest, you'd call that travel on me.
The only reason you say you wouldn't is becuase you're trying to show you usually take the high road.
From all my basketball stories it's appearant I take the high road all the time as I'm always ok with losing and never trying to hurt anyone and hence you always see my stories where I lose alot.
But you're not a take the high road guy becuase you pretty much always say the reason I lost is becuase I sukk.
If we look back at your statements, its actually really easy to see you're not the take high road kinda person.
That's why I know, you'd call that travel!
You may have said "no", but you really didn't want to say yes becuase you really wanted to say yes.
-
Because thePoster is obsessed with fish, let's talk about fish...
I don't fish, but I know biology and ecology. If people only take the big fish (plural), then the average size of the fish will actually decrease. We are essentially removing the big fish population from the gene pool, so they aren't passing on their "big fish genes." We see evidence of this across the world. It is actually a problem that many scientists are trying to correct.
Any more questions? :2funny:
-
And actually, this discussion isn't really even about basketball as it really is the type of person we are.
YOu take fishes home.
I catch and release.
-
You just mad that your assumptions are wrong, just like your fake shot move is illegal on many courts. :2funny:
If you read carefully, then you would have known that I would not have called that move. If you read carefully, you would have known that I don't call anything when I play. It's easier to play by the home team's rules than try to argue a call. Even now, you don't read carefully. Notice how I describe your move from my first post and almost every post afterwards. "It's illegal on many courts." I've seen that move before. You ain't the first. Some courts let it go, but many courts don't. If you had more experience outside your own circle, you would know this.
Any more questions? :2funny:

See how absurd your assumptions are. I don't fish, but here you are. You are so sure that I do. :idiot2:

-
Because thePoster is dying to know more about me...
So why do I play by the home team's rules? Because I feel I am good enough to compete under any rules. There are some rules that benefit me, and some rules put me at a disadvantage. I don't always win, but I feel I compete. However, these days, basketball is just exercise for me. I am not as good as what I used to be.
-
And let's examine why thePoster looks bad in his own stories.
You claim that you are "taking the high road" so "no one gets hurt." But, in your own account of events, you gave up. It's one thing to be on "cruise control." It's one thing to "take it easy." It's something completely different to simply give up. Again, this is your own account of the events.
-
That's illegal in basketball?
what kinda bull es is that?
If your feet, either one or both stays planted and you toss the ball in the air and not move your foot and catch it, I don't see how that can be illegal.
That is ridiculous.
That is my fake shot move. Cheezes...
1. It's illegal cause you're wasting time by doing that, when you let go of the ball, it should be 1) pass to someone else or 2) aim for the basket. Throwing it back to yourself means you're open to interruption from the other players and will show that you had no faith in your own teammate cause really if you do you throw it to them instead of you.
2. It's the rule of the game and is in place so to provide fairness to both teams in the game. Unless you're just playing for fun, you could make your own rules.
Just so you know I'm just here to answer your questions, not joining your discussion with bulbasaur. 8)

Don't talk to that bubbasauce dude. He will go nazi Hitler on you with his so called nazi rule.
In street ball, you do what u like if the other team has no problem with it. It is still street ball n not no organized ball where the ref will blow the whistle. No nazi allowed on my street basketball court.
Your questioning is similar if in street football, i showboat or take out a pen to sign autograph after a touch down.
In street ball, you do what you want n have fun with it if the other team allows it. Calling stupid nazi penalties in street ball n i will stop playing. Not only that, im taking the ball home with me. Ha :2funny:
-
I have a move for u if you want them nazi on your case. So if you know what a dribble is right? Now do that but do a 360 spin in between. Like hand on ball, ball hits ground, do 360 spin, ball bounces up for you to dribble again.
Or dribble like regular but instead of jogging down the court, do some hopping like a rabbit n see if nazi is in the house.
Or have a team mate do a screen with him facing the other way but you throw to his back, get your own pass n continues to dribble the other way.
;)

HAHAHAHAHA. The sad part is that you know I am right. :2funny:

It is illegal on many courts simply because it is, not because it is wasting time or fair. Anything can be considered wasting time or fair from a certain POV.
1. It's illegal cause you're wasting time by doing that, when you let go of the ball, it should be 1) pass to someone else or 2) aim for the basket. Throwing it back to yourself means you're open to interruption from the other players and will show that you had no faith in your own teammate cause really if you do you throw it to them instead of you.

Good ballers don't worry about what the rules are or what ball is being used or who is calling what. Let the scrubs worry about that stuff. In your case, go right ahead and worry about "nazis." :2funny:

But it looks like you do.
So which are you?

Pages of this, and you are still mad for not knowing the rules. :2funny:

Here is some advice: Don't hate the playa, hate the game.
You are so concerned about me, that you fail to realize that it is the game. You can insult me all you like. You can make assumptions about me all you like. You can make irrelevant fish analogies all you like. At the end of the day, many courts consider your fake shot to be illegal.
-
Actually you're more concerned about me!!!
Even though you said you wouldn't, you just did make the call!
All I'm saying is I catch and release, you take the fish home!
-
Reading comprehension is important. And, it is still illegal on many courts.
Any more questions? :2funny:

The game is the game. I'm not hating the game or the player. If you was a guy that catch and released, you would realize it!
Untill you stop bringing fishes home you'll never understand!
In a sense, I guess you can say you have not reached that level of bball nirvana yet.
Untill then, you're not going to see the point or understand it!

one more question for you
you said this
"Good ballers don't worry about what the rules are or what ball is being used or who is calling what. Let the scrubs worry about that stuff. In your case, go right ahead and worry about "nazis.""
how do you know that good ballers don't worry about what the rules are? You are not even a good baller yourself and if good ballers do not care then why are players in the nba be crying when a foul is against them? Surely they must cared about the rules or why play?
proving once against that your logic talk is all horsechit. :2funny:
-
how do you know that good ballers don't worry about what the rules are? Magic, Bird, Jordan, etc. When they lose, they don't blame it on the rules.
why are players in the nba be crying when a foul is against them? They are not complaining about the rule; they are complaining about the call. Not the same thing.
Surely they must cared about the rules or why play? Again, they care about the calls, not the rules.
The rules can be whatever as long as it is fair. In the case of this thread, many people consider thePoster's move illegal.
You just mad that you are often wrong. That is why you are stalking me. :2funny:

why are players in the nba be crying when a foul is against them? They are not complaining about the rule; they are complaining about the call. Not the same thing.
They are complaining about the foul which is the same thing as the call. So bad ballers complain about the rules then? :2funny:

In the case of this thread, you are still wrong. The poster can play on my court and have fun with his illegal to non illegal moves. IT's street ball for crying out loud. Only nazi like you would ban him from street ball because he is crying foul. :2funny:

*yawns*
magic bird and jordan are the only good ballers and they told you that? You forgot "etc"
So bad ballers complain about the rules then? yes
In the case of this thread, many people consider thePoster's move illegal. If you want to play by different rules, then go ahead. There are many different kinds of basketball.
