    See title, I want to hear from you basketball fans especially - I will start:

    My offense is absolutely alright being able to score jumpers from anywhere with pretty good rates as I got a clean "one-motion shot" and therefore range. I play a contact-avoiding, ground-bound, mid-range heavy game where I often opt for a stepback (jumper) or floaters. I sometimes can succeed in the post with fakes, dream shakes, fadeaways even though I am not too big and strong. Generally, my ability to generate space is very good and therefore allows me to score against basically any defense. I pass solidly as well being able to find the free man.

    However, my defense is absolute trash (besides steals) and I got problems with my weak, right hand, when pressured hard. Also, you could have figured it out above, I tend to demand the ball alot and continue to chuck up shots at times when it isn't falling. And when my jumper doesn't fall, I harm my team alot, because of my defense.

    EDIT: My skills are good enough for casual play, but not much more - mostly cause of my lack of leaping ability.

    I'm a very strong defender but can't really play offense I usually just support with pick and plays
    Note: I'm tall asf so I usually intimidate offenders into passing which can stop momentum since I'm always in the paint

    hundred percent sure you're garbage at playin ball aswell (without even reading).

    In anycase, I play the 'three point sniper' role.
    solid on defense.

    Probably good enough for the d league due to my long arms. Offense is ok, but I can easily block shots and slow someone down. I can touch the rim without running jumping.

    i usually only play like one a week, but i think my strengths are setting up the right plays with good ball movement, im a decent 3 point shooter, and i play hard on defense and hustle for rebounds. my ball handling skills are average at best and i can rarely drive well enough to finish.

    I have no stamina (im deadass) but I'm pretty good at defense and rebounding so I guess you can say I play Center when I'm with friends. No good on offense

    Basketball was never really my strongest sport, but enjoyed the hell out of it.
    Played all throughout high school.
    I would say I'm a strong finisher, and reliable shooter.
    Averaged about 14 points a game.

    Basketball doesn't play you too.
