"Pick-up" basketball? Like basketball played in pick-up trucks? Are the trucks playing on their own or are the drivers controlling them to hit the ball with their front bumper up into the hoop, Air Bud-style?
Shut up, idiot! We're talking about the kind of pick-up basketball you play with your friends or strangers in the park. And how it's great but can sometimes suck if the ingredients aren't juuuuuust right.
John Haskell is a super funny professional comedy man who is a lock-down wing defender with a dynamite mid-range jumper and who plays in a Saturday morning pick-up basketball game with Ben.
