Who likes to stack teams when the court is packed?

Last night my team was gelling and won a few straight. Ther were about 3 teams waiting. So we just got bumped. So guy who calls next comes up to me and asks "yo you wanna run?"
There are 15 guys waiting+ some who were shooting on the other end. I hate those guys who like to stack teams. It's flattering to be asked but I'd rather let everyone play.

Lol getting off the court to let other teams play when you haven't lost? You must hoop with white people.

Lol, or "can we get a different ball?" Or "I haven't played in like a year."

Yea, I see it happens all the time.

I've enjoyed going against guys like that even though I'm probably out matched though. Even if it's not their best player.

I look at it as a hard foul, and I hard foul mofos back, because.

I mean, because.

Before things escalate of course, which has yet to happen for me on the basketball court.

Well the thing is, there was a guy who had next after next and it was only him and his buddy. They were playing 4 on 4, so I ask him if he can put me down (no one else is waiting after 2 nexts) and he says to me... uhhhh I'm gonna pick up these 2 guys that are playing right now.

I think to myself... what the fck! I don't want to wait 3 nexts... so eventually a big tall black guy comes through and those 2 put him down and then they say to me alright we got our 4 now. All it took was a big tall black guy (who was a lazy ass guy on our team it turns out) for them to call that shit off :roll:

If they had actually gone through with that shit, I would have annihilated them the game after :rockon:

You let guys pick their own team when people are waiting for next? That's some bull shit. That's a good way to get your ass beat. Where I come from, if you're waiting, you get the next available spot.

:applause:

Not gonna lie, it feels good when I just come off the court and next team is like "yo you wanna run?"
But I just can't let people wait. reminds me of when I was 15 5'4 and trying to get in the game. It sucks to sit then see people skip ahead of you, or a guy who just got bumped get picked up by the next team.

I prefer method to madness, even if madness would often benefit me personally. I believe if someone's at the court and they've been waiting, they deserve an opportunity.

Sounds like the same people I play with at the gym. You walk in and see about 3 or 4 guys waiting for the game to finish and none of them have next with one another.

Well, there's no rules. Technically if someone has next, it's his team. He should pick up dudes who are also waiting, and not currently playing. As long as you ask, that's pretty much rule of thumb. I always ask nicely, yo u got next? You got your team? Can you put me down?

That was the first time I ran into a situation like that. I'm glad it worked out that he picked me up, because I would have embarrassed the shit outa that scrub if I picked my own team afterwards :oldlol:

Doesn't mean he sucked, it means the other dudes sucked and they obviously had to scout for the biggest players to have an advantage. They did pick him up when tall black dude walked in

Nothing is worse than the guy who literally calls a foul if there is any form of contact on him or the ball and he losses control, my ****ing god I literally just want to walk off the court playing against those idiots.

If its obvious to you its obvious to everyone. Guy will get the point.
one of the places I went once a week there was a guy that would do that. It was so bad that any time he touched the ball the game would stop because we assumed he would call foul. He got chirped so bad he stopped coming

how did you get bumped when winner stays on in those situations?

thats why people stack when the courts are crowded, so they don't have to stand and watch for 3~ games when they get bounced.

i get what you're saying tho, since a good competitive game of bball is why most of us play. MF'ers don't want to sit tho so they stack teams. hard to blame them.

My team lost after a good run

I think it's about sportsmanship. Plus just being competitive I want to take down the team running. I usually don't have a problem since I'm usually one of the better players out there. But when I got next I usually ask if anyone hasn't run next. I run with them.

if the ask came from a good player i would run with them

nothing wrong with stacking the teams, as a matter of fact, everyoen should do that to make the competition better

i hate playing against sucky players/teams or getting asked to run with a sucky team because it just straight up time wasting.
