We never call fouls around my way. Somebody has to "give you ball"
Out of towners when they come hoop here try to exploit that ****. Til ****** get mad you obviously fouling and not being honest, and it gets real
.
Calling a foul is looked at as being soft. Somebody could forearm shiver me, and I wouldn't call Ball

I only call a foul if it's blatant.
I sometimes don't even call it when I get slapt on the arm/wrist mid shot. I just focus on trying to finish the shot. I do say "Got that" when I do get fouled, but was told I HAVE to say 'foul'. lol Whatever.

Man I call fouls but only if it's like on a shot. If it's not on a shot I usually don't call it. I call fouls though man I care too much about my health to be playing with ****** that foul the whole game I'm not tryna get hurt playing pick up basketball

dudes don't know math. I was trying to tell people this yesterday but was told it's the same thing.
They're both equally easy. I see no difference.

Excuses? ****** ain't out here playing for money b if I'm just getting fouled every drive to the rack it's not even fun at that point.

yea you keep that soft stuff in Indy.

That's that veteran streetball savvy. Other tricks include;
1) Never admitting to touching the ball last before it goes out of bounds
2) If the ball does go out of bounds in the paint, always check the ball at the 3 pt. line and hope the other team just lets you have it
3) Yelling out "respect his call" when your teammate gets fouled and he doesn't call it.
4) Poke shooters in the stomach mid-shot
5) Tug on shorts/shirts during a pick/screen
6) If you're winning, chances are you'll be accurate with the score. If you're losing, you may round up your score a point or two while bringing the opponents down one.
If the other team ever disagrees with any of the above, have them shoot a 3 to prove it because "the ball never lies".
Nah, but seriously, I played yesterday and saw all these tricks being pulled in the course of the couple games I played

Come to Indiana play some real basketball and not that trash *** NC bball scene. So you don't call fouls when you get fouled on a shot attempt? Why wouldn't someone just foul you everytime you shot then?yea you keep that soft stuff in Indy.

It isn't about COUNTING, it is about a 3 PT shot shouldn't be DOUBLE the amount of points as a 2 PT Shot.
When you go by 1s and 2s, that is what you are doing.

Probably already been discussed, but the fat/extra swole dude with no shot and no handle that just lowers his shoulder and slowly rams his way to the basket 
I despise playing with these guys.
Being physical and posting up is one thing, but just violently throwing 100% of your body weight into people when you weigh damn near 300 pounds is just ridiculous

Is the Spalding TF-1000 and Wilson Evo ball still the best indoor ball?
Left my Wilson back home at my parents home in CA, so I'm looking to buy a new one.
