The player: The Hothead
Screaming at the slightest contact and throwing elbows in friendly games. That's quite typical of players like this. Everyone is out to get him on the court. The slightest aggravation will lead to over physical play... and quite often this player being physically separated from another player to prevent a fist fight.
The person: Mr Angsty
These players often have a lot of real life issues to deal with. Be it gambling debts, problems with the family... or even worse... WOMEN problems! The basketball court is not a court for them. Its an arena to vent out frustration as well as perhaps kill a few fellow gladiato... er.. players.
The player: Mr Shoot First Point Guard
Point Guard's are mostly at least semi capable players. Their skills can range from the 'Self Made Player' or 'Mr Hot Shot' kinda abilities. The only problem lies in the fact that Point Guards are supposed to control the flow and offence of the team. Mr Shoot First Point Guard however normally has two issues which are similar to 'Self Made Player' or 'Mr Hot Shot'. One is that they don't trust their team mates, and feel that they're better off taking a bad shot rather than passing it to some one who is a bad shooter. Or they just feel like they have something to prove.
The person: Mr Too little Too Much
Again people like this have confidence issues. Either too little confidence... or too damn much of it! Definitely not team players, these people also tend to have huge trust issues in real life. Perhaps also a little self righteous in their beliefs to get what they deserve.
The player: Mr Chill Man, It's Just a Game
To say players like this play the game casually is quite the understatement. They spend more time watching the person or zone they are marking than actually guarding it. And when their team mates get on their back about not putting in any efforts, their standard reply reflects the exact name I've given this kind of players.
The person: I'm Here to Sweat
These people look at sports as a way to stay healthy. Or as the quota of sweat for the week. Competitiveness and winning are two notions that are quite foreign to them for sports. After all, sports is just about getting the minimum amount of sweat and exercise required.
Not a player, doesn't deserve to be a person : I'm a Clueless Dumb Fuck
Fariz.. *cough* sorry it slipped out. These type of players try way too hard. Clumsy and and stupid, no amount of training or hard work will improve what their fatal flaw is. Stupidity. Just as likely to hurt opponents as well as team mates, these players are people to stay well away from. Both on and off the court.
So what kind of baller are you? Something I didn't specify here? Drop a comment to enlighten me :P
What kinda of baller am I? I'm all of the above, more and less.
Or you could come to our court at ss18 and find out yourself on Saturdays and Sunday.
