I've started playing 5v5 in the gym, and so many people talk trash to a ridiculous level.

 

I have seen a minimum of 10 guys claim to be 'monsters' last week, and all of them were pretty much garbage. They'd be 3/17, have eighty turnovers, zero assists, no defense, and then call out everyone else on the team about how 'shit' they are.

 

I tried to do a pick and roll to help him get to an open lane, but he chucked up a shot and got mad as to why 'no one was helping him' lol. 

 

I have flaws in my game, and play based on them. I play stretch 4 or 5 and typically spend my time  in the post, spacing out, setting screens, or making midrange shots. I wish more people understood their limits.

 

Anyone else have nightmare stories for sports?

 

Nothing amuses me more than watching amateurs go up against someone like LeBron at camps and such; it's akin to the difference between an average adult and a five year old lol

It always seemed to me that the NBA features the most impressive mix of size and athleticism of any sport, which is probably why some people watching delude themselves into thinking they're somehing special. When even the worst NBA players are incredible athletes and most everyone is very tall it makes it hard to appreciate just how much better they are than most people.

I'd be on board if the nba decided that a full quarter must be played every game by one average person alongside his pro teammates. It would be pretty amusing to watch those two tripping over themselves and dying as they jog from one side of the court to the other lol
