    Love that. Another good one for the Y is the ‘Peter’ defense. If you’re late to contest a jumper you can lunge at their waistband region and 90% of the time it freaks people out and they shoot it short.

    I’ll never, ever claim to be a good basketball player but I played with three different 1000 point scorers in high school so I could damn near write a thesis on pickup defense. With that being said, a DII power forward dropped damn near 50 on my head in a mens league game so my powers can only go so far…

      This just unlocked a memory of playing on the high school team and I had this teammate that would shove his fingers up your ass when you tried to post him up. He even did it in actual games to the other team.

        No he didn’t u/booty_sweat_juice. Someone does that, in practice or a game, and they’re getting their ass kicked. People don’t just let sexual assault slide.

        Weird fan-fic though.

      Didn’t Shane Battier use to throw punches (that never hit) at shooting players in an attempt to distract them?
