Thread: Pick-Up basketball

    Pick-Up basketball

    Anyone know some goos spots on the weekend to play some pickup?

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    St Bernard Center(those guys play hard)
    Elwood Anytime Fitness Gym is the best IMO.
    Tulane is super fun.
    Dillard is pretty good.
    And UNO
    2013-1014 is the season the Pelicans fanbase grows!!!!

    I play at the courts behind Delgado, but I agree that it's better to play indoors at some place like UNO or Tulane.

    Yeah, the Peja Stojakovic one. It's only one half court that's regulation, but it's like two blocks away from my house. I'd be down a soon as y health insurance kicks back in around September 12

    Premeir fitness has an indoor court (on airline by cox building), but it cost money for a membership obviously, and the court is definitely not regulation, but it is nice for sure.

    Lakeshore usually has a lot of 17-20 somethings in there. It was a huge hot spot for a while, but it seems its dying down a bit. This is over by the lake/bonnabel area. As for the city, the places mentioned are probably the best. I cant really think of any others. I always favor indoor over outdoor. You'll mess your knees up playing on that concrete. :P

    Do you know where the Crescent City Gym is that they play their games? My friend hasn't told me where yet and the game is tomorrow.

    4-6 of my friends and I play in Mandeville. We're all 35yo and up. Shoot me a PM if anyone lives in Mandeville/Slidell and would like to come out.
    We could use another 2 guys to be come regulars. We play 9am on Sat or Sun depending on everyones schedules.
    It's a outdoor/covered court, but we play half court. Message me for details and questions. Thanks.
