Ep. 169 Premium - Hash out or Crash out! Basketball Edition [VIDEO]

taking the charge is cringe but blatantly charging your friends is a dick move

I wouldn't call a charge in pick up. Pick up is not an official match, so fouls do happen often especially because the level of gameplay varies tremendously. Calling fouls like a charge often needs a unbiased third party who's watching like a ref to be able to cleanly call a charging foul. If not it gets abused and ruins the fun of the game. However Aiden is right, if u are getting plowed through (hehe) u do gotta call it at some point. But in pick up basketball usually the defending player will just tell u straight up to chill out. The chain of events that happen if u don't chill out and continue to charge, the one who keeps charging will start to get fouled more by the whole team on purpose, and things tend to get messy. From personal experience it's better to have a play style that uses less contact, and more ankle braking. You're less likely to find yourself in conflicts with other people

colloquially, when you're playing non ranked. Quick play if you would. Pick up basketball at the park. Anything that isn't a blatant foul while you're shooting the ball or laying it up, is cringe. And you will be clowned for it by the neighborhood

Swastika cereal caught me off guard

Charge is cringe

This is the video proof I needed to know that Ludwig doesn’t know ball

ludwigs attitude this episode was unmatched. thank you for making me laugh

swasted flakes

Taking a charge in pickup basketball is usually cringe because it’s dangerous for the guy taking the charge. Usually you’re taking the pickup game too seriously if you’re trying to take a charge in pickup lol BUT if a guy keeps running into you and lowering his shoulder constantly, it’s based. In this case Aiden’s right, Ludwig’s wrong. Ludwig’s just brute forcing his way to the basket like a football player which, at the end of the day, shows a lack of finesse

Charge tuah, take on that thang

Drawing a charge and constantly lowering your shoulder are both super cringe in pick up basketball.

Slime is 100% right about the kickflip and I’ve commented this on the YouTube vids, the best thing to learn after Ollie is moving Ollie. The progression should go Ollie -> moving Ollie -> kickflip. Skipping the moving Ollie will make learning kickflip a million times harder. Also, hyped that nick is hitting the parks 🛹 he’s got the right idea - get comfortable riding on different terrain and the other shit will come

I voted based on both the yard poll and Ludwig’s insta story poll without knowing the context before hand, I still stand by it I think Aiden is kinda based taking that charge.

love that nick didn't know where the guy was either

I respect nick even more for that trickshot I love finding out when others were into trickshoting

Lud you’re doing a lot but like all other millionaires you ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH

Ludwig using Trump argument points just to defend himself because he sucks at basketball and uses bully tactics is fucking sad in a very pathetic way he doesnt seem to be congizant of. I hope he sees this comment, but I know the best I might get is someone who matters to him might show this to him in the “hopes” he will see the real message

"There's two virgins IN this question" was bars

i’m not gonna lie, when i saw the poll, i assumed when it said taking the charge, it thought it meant like being the in game leader and so i didn’t think that was lame so i said not cringe, taking a charge in pickup is lame

episode one hundred and 69 nice

Charge in pickup is cringe unless offensive player is playing like Ludwig and relying on running in shoulder down, that’s even more cringe

Luds crashing out for real on this ep

Love the pod but calling a charge in pickup is giga cringe lol

nick hitting a 720 wrist twist across derail in the latter half of 2024 broke my brain

As a fellow twink, taking that charge is the act of a hero for twinklings everywhere

Out of the two, the one charging is way more cringe and I say that as a guy who is 6’3 230lbs. You ain’t gonna just slam into people cause you can

aiden won taking a charge is putting your body on the line for the love of the sport especially to a 5’11 200 guy.

charge in pickup is bitchmade af

forget a league coach, ludwig needs a basketball coach; flight and yard collab when ?

Damn, I fw Aimens Shel Silverstein shirt

Taking a charge in pickup is cringe

As someone who played college basketball yes taking a charge in pickup is cringe lmao

Taking the charge from an ape in low elo based af + lud is dog at arguing lmao

I realized I know nothing about basketball haha. After having fully listened now, Aiden wins that one. Based af

Charges are cringe but not as cringe as a big ass uncoordinated guy just trying to bully ball people.

i never comment i’m just a yard lurker but hearing someone drop his shoulder in pick up basketball and then coming at someone for taking a charge is a bad look. lud needs to get some moves in his bag. taking a charge is never cringe. putting your body on the line in a very defenseless position is always sick. listening to two people just side with vibes guy is also tough. snoring during aimen talking is always funny unfortunately

if aimen didn't get so emotional i would have sided with him, emotions can never beat facts and logic i fear

Cringe on both sides your honor.

he did it to Ludwig? That's based as hell

ludwig talking basketball is probably the worst thing to listen too

nah i voted cringe on twitter but hearing ludwig talk and know he’s playing bully ball in pick up changes my opinion on the matter. playing bully ball in pickup is very cringe

Ludwig talking about basketball makes me irrationally angry. Especially when you actually watch him play

i need, NEED, that Nadeshot shirt.

Thoughts on Yung lean and bladee features on the brat remix album?

"cause Aiden's cringe, Aiden fucking cringe, he's smoking weed" yet I believe Aiden is the winner of this episode.

Shake Tuah, drizzle on that thang

Bully ball is very cringe calling charges slightly more cringe. Taking a charge against a guy who plays bully ball has not stopped bully ball once and is liable to start a fight on other less amicable courts

I listened to the whole hash or or crash out and still don’t understand wtf they’re talking about. Either way Nick wins

They can't keep letting ludwig get away with this

Y'all don't even know how long I've been waiting for the Slime League content

if you were to somehow do a 900 on flat you would ride out fakie but if you do it on a vert ramp, you’re riding back regular

Aiden is right. Ludwig is mad cuz bad.

I don't know if I buy Aiden's "cheese doesn't get applause" I think in games like melee that might be significantly more common, but think about cheese in games like Starcraft, If you ever sat in the old MLG crowds back in the beginning of SC2 or watched GSL for broodwar you know how much the crowd loves cheese

I still want perun episode. Think of the bars nick can put together off that convo

Haven't started the EP yet but seeing the timestamps go from a 2 min banter to a 28 minute Hash out or Crash Out makes my $5 worth it

As a lifelong sportsballer(seriously) charging is a great defensive play and sion utling is shit offensive play. Ludwigs is bsing because the rules were correctly used against him.

taking the charge is hype dude luds so wrong on this one

Aidens right. If you play all the time learn to go left or right for one step even instead of spamming one move people are just too small to stop

Aiden is the man from Tiananmen Square

Unreal of Lud to try and make a baseball reference (or even baseball adjacent) after last time.

aimen valid. lud gotta level up his game and get by him instead of running him over

Is d&d just a fun thing they do together or will it be content one day? Or is it just a running joke? Asking genuinely

Ludwig’s argument style would be perfect for a “college liberal destroyed” channel

why aiden wearing a shirt with serbian nadeshot on it

Thank you for pointing out that league is baby dota

Ludwig does not care. He never has and he never will.

Slime should be a dealer and advocate for a UAW union there — that would be based https://uaw.org/gaming/

Usually it is cringe in a pickup game but the context of Ludwig playing bully ball makes Aiden more right to me. Especially if he does it repeatedly relying on his body rather than dribbling skills.

Swastid Flakes

I was originally on the cringe side but the context I gotta agree with Aiden. Lud got too used to playing bully ball and doesn’t have the skill set yet to do anything else yet.

To be Chris the garden hose

the sponsor bit had me dead

im a big john lithgow fan love the 3rd rock from the sun shoutout

If Ludwig ever starts another Patreon smacking his fucking food like that again I’m unfollowing and dedicating my internet presence to telling everyone who will listen that you’re all pedophiles

Y'all hashed this out in premo 135 and the opinions were different across the boooooard.

Damn finished the whole pod now, Aidan is completely right about the charge dilemma.

lud don’t know ball

As a lifetime basketball player, (State champ, on the bench). its cringe to take a charge in a low elo game... but, if you are in a game where refs are PAID to be there, it instantly becomes based. There is no other reality.

aiden is right as hell but jesus christ ludwig is so funny

ludwig can't ball handle and complaining about charges is wee wee baby shit

It’s also just a foul to initiate contact with a lowered shoulder. So if what they said is true and he’d been doing that all game then he was fouling all game. It’s wack to play like that, gotta take a charge there.

ludwig dumb as bricks, aidens right

still thinking about what slime revealed last episode

With all the context, Aiden is right.

Adin rigme

Can’t find the secret bonus episode, help?

I play a lot of pickup and can say that under normal circumstances calling a charge is cringe, but if my opponent is running it down like Giannis Antetokounmpo taking the charge is fine tbh

I feel like in any level of basketball charges are cheese

Holy shit that commercial break was the hardest I've laughed in a while. Thank you Sline

let a fat guy hit

Trying to call a charge in pickup is fucking insane

aiden is based 100%%

i played basketball for 16 years, organized and pickup- typically not going to be calling pansy fouls in a pickup game but if your drive is just running people down like a linebacker (ludwig i saw that jasontheween game) youre asking for a charge. if you want to back people down in the post, you have to put your ass out and back it up like a truck. if you want to charge forward, you have to go around the defender

Taking a charge on asphalt is based.

Watching ludwig rage at the tyler1 AI live felt unethical

i was there when nick made that trickshot and it was soooo goated

I don’t watch or know basketball at all and thought Ludwig was charging people money or something to play basketball

In fact gym basketball notoriously sucks because body builders use their weight to shove people around.

Played basketball all my life. Taking a charge is cringe…. Unless it’s to send a message to a guy who’s using his body weight to shove people around.

All time miss from Ludwig this week

calling anything but an and one in pickup ball 😬

lud was crashing out imo

God, Aiden is so brave for against the woke mind virus this episode

Very cringe taking a charge in pick up.

The context Aiden provided was CRUCIAL. For that reason, I think we have to side with Mr. Calvin.

Nah if all you do is drive in a straight line it's like playing bowling with the rails on the gutters.

Guys its not the first time and it wont be the last time that the advice show didnt come in a month if were lucky we get one per 2 months if that

Man I hope the advice show doesn’t come back. It’s been a month

Is the advice show coming back? It’s been a month
