yeah - you did nothing wrong. i am quite familiar with this situation.

i have shown up at the park before looking to play, and have encountered groups like yours. a bunch of guys who came together and prefer to play among themselves. they are usually kind of dorky and not very good and it's really not even worth approaching them. the other kid was clearly in the wrong. if he was an experienced street baller i'm surprised he even approached you at all.

and for all of the clowns talking about how 3 on 3 half court is standard or 4 on 4 full court (wtf), i'm just going to assume that you guys are dorky and not very good as well, because anyone who plays seriously plays 5 on 5 full. half court is only used when you are waiting for more people to show up - if this is not your standard then you are playing at the wrong courts.

i think he did nothing wrong. my friends and i used to do this all the time in college. we are not that good at basketball and didn't want to have to sit out games. we also liked to trash talk each other about our lack of skills.

they should find their own friends to play with. losers.
