This is the aspect I love most about basketball...

You can show up to a court ALONE and have people to play with.

No1 goes who the **** are you?

You call next and organise a team.

Basketball is a team game and you play it as such.

You show up alone and end up with a team.

Amazing quality int he states.


I couldnt imagine showing up to a court and not having any1 to play with.

here in southern california you can always find 5's at just about any park around 5 pm - 8 pm. a lot of times you'll actually have to get next game (or next next, etc)

There's a court on our beach here in Michigan, but I've never played on it because it always seems like sand will be blowing over it. But I suppose when folks say beach basketball, they're referring to a court near the beach, not directly on it.

Here in Ireland there's only like one or two outdoor courts in my city which are battered and always empty. The only one near me is in a heavily gypsy populated area and it can get rough at times. I've never seen anyone play on that court which sucks. I got a hoop in my backyard though so it's all good.

Another aussie here. From a small town, of about 100 000, only 4 courts where i have ever seen actual ballers play.
and they are terrible courts. There are 2 indoor courts played at, 1 never opened at a school, the other a basketball association where all the organized games are played is always full of teams training or games 4 days a week.
Never get to play with anyone decent. although there was one guy who used to come down, got offered a D2 scholarship, but he had a daughter and stuff.

i am from Europe... lived in Denmark, now in Bosnia and the courts outside are mostly empty everywhere...

i have dreams of playing in Venice Beach LA, Ruckerpark NY and so on... anybody ever played there?

I'm from Europe too but I've been to NYC/LAL before and I've visited all the famous courts like Rucker, West 4th, Goat, Kingdome, Venice Beach etc. It was awesome to play on these legendary courts, but it's not like these courts were crowded all the time or all the players there played like pros. West 4th and Venice were probably the most busy courts (at least at the time when I was there).
Where I live you usually find easily some guys for a pick up game but in smaller cities the courts are empty, since basketball is not that popular here...
