Turning up and playing at venice or Rucker
Hey Fellas,
I'm heading to the USA for a trip in Feb, just wondering can you just rock up and play a pick up game at venice and rucker off the street? I play a bit i'm 6'6 play hard. Or you gotta be a uncle drew semi pro to play there haha? just be good to get some experience playing alongside some good dudes at the famous streetball courts or is it not even like that...?

Re: Turning up and playing at venice or Rucker
I've never played at Rucker but I do live on the east coast and I never played much outside in February. There's snow on the court or it's too windy or too cold or anything like that. Everyone plays indoor at the Y or PAL or Boys Club or wherever there's a gym. Dunno about Venice. Been there but never balled there.

Why the **** would you want to play basketball during your vacation? What's wrong, are there no basketball rims over there in Australia?

Re: Turning up and playing at venice or Rucker
I played at Rucker this past April. Outside of summer it's kind of like any other random court. It wasn't actually in super condition at the time - one of the rims was slightly egg-shaped like a carnival.

I went to Venice beach this summer and saw like a group of pro looking dunkers. between the legs easy as fvck
Then i saw them shoot and dribble, now i know why they only dunk

Re: Turning up and playing at venice or Rucker
i went to LA a few summers ago and literally walked up and started playing. no fuss. Probably the same in NY.
Only reason you might not be able to play is if there is a tournament or something.
