    Generally half court, but I prefer full. Fastbreaking is one of the most beautiful parts of basketball when it's done right, and you obviously don't get that with half court. Also if teams are unbalanced (by either talent or height) it's more obvious because it's "make it, take it". Plus I play basketball partly to stay in shape, and full court is much better for that.

    Blah blah blah, I'm rambling. I vote for full but I'm sure it'll be half. Either way I'm lighting up whoever is guarding me.

    usually it depends how many people show up, we usually play 3 on 3, but if there is enough for 5 on 5, we usually play full court for every two 3 on 3 game :)

    half court sounds good, i dont think i could run up and down the court all day!! so from the posts it sounds like clutchcityreturns, Kam, and yaozer are the best, am i right?

    I'm all for full court too. There's only one problem, my shoes are bald. I need to get new shoes before this Saturday if I can.. or else you'll see me skating around all over the place like the last 2 weeks. It really makes it hard to defend.

    If only that place gets some light after dark, it would be awesome.

    If I bring name tags, will you guys use them? I'm serious. I think it would make things easier, especially for people that have never been out there before.

    Oh and I'm the worst. Kam is definitely the best.

    Here he is throwin' one down. I'm sure he doesn't want me posting this but whatever.

    Kam is da schizniet and like Dave said, moes is a Dirk clone (also beware of the headband). Clutchcity got some hops so watch out for the teabag. Dave got the Marion shot with the no-look layup that he does. Also finals should not be left open outside the arc, that is all I'm gonna say.

    Me- I have never played before. This will be my 4th time ever playing basketball in my life.

    Oh and btw, be sure your shoes are bald like mine was I was skating all over the place last time. That clip by Clutchcity of Kam is dead on!

    I think we might have enough to tryout 5 on 5 full court game. I will try to bring a friend with me so we can run 5 on 5. It will be nice to play again like old days.

    it should be beautiful on Saturday, but real ugly for the rest of you. make sure you bring a chisel so you can scrape away the spalding i'm going to plant on your foreheads.

    Wow, I didn't think a fan of basketball could only play for the 4th time ever. How is that possible? No disrespect but I'm just curious, why is it only your 4th time ever?

    Iono.. I play mostly soccer growing up.. and ever since I got to college I've been doing ping pong and bowling a lot. Maybe you guys can teach me a thing or two. Maybe some cool moves or something.
