The guy was describing his basketball prowess like he had been inducted into the Jewish Basketball Hall of Fame for playing basketball for a while in school, and calling it an overachievement in life. He had about 2 other guys in the Jewish Basketball Hall of Fame with him, about the same number as you would find in the Irish or Italian basketball halls of fame, but still he didn't want to tone his bullshit down, because to him basketball was more than a stupid fucking game he played in school, it was as sacred as religion.

Something not everyone feels like watching/playing all summer long, during the most casual time of year there is. The way things were done before the pandemic, where the finals ended a month before late July was good enough, since it was good enough from the creation of the league roughly until the pandemic. There never needed to be an extra month of basketball, where a few people keep changing schedules and games until the team they want to see win finally does.
By late June, people have watched enough basketball, there's no good reason for it to continue a month longer. It doesn't create fatigue for anybody, it's aggravation at a casual time of year not meant for excessive levels of aggravation, and the aggravation is there no matter what team gets the championship. Late summer isn't basketball time because it never was.

Basketball, but points are scored by throwing the ball up through the hoop.
You can use your feet to manipulate the ball.
Points:
1 point if the ball comes back down and hits the rim or backboard.
2 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor within the free through rectangle.
3 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor outside of the free through rectangle and inside the 3-point line.
5 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor outside of the 3-point line.
If any of those shots are made by bouncing the ball off the floor, then thought the bottom of the hoop, the point value is doubled for every landing zone.
If a player on the enemy team catches the ball after it has a been launched though the hoop, the shooting team gets only 1 point, as if the ball had hit the hoop or backboard.
If a player on the shooting team interferes with the ball's fall after being launched through the hoop, no point is scored.
On defense, any measure up to pushing is legal. Any defensive action that causes another player to fall is considered illegal, unless the referee can reasonably determine that the defensive action should not have been forceful enough to knock the player down. Lowering one's shoulder and charging another player is illegal.

A in-house league where everyone is fucking disabled and they don’t know how to coach. It is in a church where it is so dirty that the court turned dark brown.

A fast paced up style of play reminiscent of the show time Lakers of the 80's. Led by Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, this dynamic team is set to be remembered for ages. Laker fans should be afraid. Very afraid. Especially any Laker fan going by the name of "Black Mamba" or "Kris" as this is associated with a person long since past their prime. Much like that loser ball hog Kobe. Clipper basketball should only be enjoyed by people that like watching exciting players. People who root for crappy teams just because they once had Shaq, need not apply. Clipper basketball fans don't root for laundry. Their time is now!!!!!
Wow, what a game! Did you see that dunk by Blake?
No I was just watching Kobe flop on the ground for 40 minutes.
Oh, then you weren't watching Clipper basketball like me!
