If you miss you drop down to 35. If the person who took you out gets taken out by someone else you get to come back in. Last man standing wins. Game can get tedious but its fun to strategize on who you're gonna try to take out first, the scrubs or the ballers lol.

Its something like that, sounds like a spin-off of 50. 
Not gonna lie I'm almost shocked at how many people don't know what 50 is. If you don't know what 50 is around here, you're gonna learn real fast. I didn't even know it wasn't like a nationwide game until about 3 years ago

2s and 3s.
Take backs behind 3 point line.
No tips.

This man knows, must be Chicago exclusive cause ur the only other person I've seen mention 32.
Theres also a shooting game called 42 where you shoot a 3 pointer (3 pts), Midrange(2 pts) and Layup (1 Pt) from 7 different spots. A perfect score is 42.

Don't know if this is an universal rule but when someone misses and another player gets a putback with his feet off the ground the player who missed goes back down to zero.

I prefer 50 over 21. Every basket is worth 5 points and when you get 50 you challenge each player to a 1 on 1. If you score they out. There's also 50 with taps, which just means you can steal people's points by tapping their missed shot back in.
