FBNYC 3-on-3 League	FBNYC, 7.2.08
Hey FBNYCers, Try this on for size... taking a cue from ZogSports, we're considering a 3-on-3 half court league. We all love the AsianHoops.com annual Summer 3-on-3, so why not run a league. Everybody gets burn, everybody gets touches and its easier to get 4-5 friends to commit than 10. I copied that almost verbatim from the ZogSports.com website. So here's how it would work... Every team will get (8) game days. On each game day, teams will play (3) games against the same opponent with 2:00 minute breaks in between. Each game will last 15:00 minutes and be officiated by an official referee. That's 24 total games!!! Every individual win/loss will be tallied in the league standings. Only the top 8 teams in the league will make the playoffs. Entry fees for each team will be determined upon the number of teams that participate but it will be no more than $400.00 for a maximum of 5 players.  We are considering three different leagues for varying skill levels and with various features: MEN'S OPEN DIVISION Most competitive division. Open to any skill level, each team is allowed (1) non-Asian player. Features: - All games will be officially scored and refereed. Stats and standings will be posted to the website. - Trophies for 1st and 2nd pl.  and t-shirts for Champions. - $500.00 GRAND PRIZE and free entry to next season (only with same roster). MEN'S REC. DIVISION For recreation league players looking to get a good run. All players in this league must be at least 1/4 Asian descent. - All games will be officially scored and refereed. Stats and standings will be posted to the website. - Trophies for 1st and 2nd pl. Champions receive t-shirts and free entry to next season (only with same roster). COED DIVISION This division is strictly for fun. (1) female player must be on the court at all times. This league is open to everyone. - All games will be officially scored and refereed. Stats and standings will be posted to the website. - Trophies for 1st and 2nd pl. Champions receive t-shirts and free entry to next season (only with same roster). BASIC RULES - These basic guidelines would apply to all leagues. - 3-on-3, substitutions can be made any deadball. - Each game lasts 15:00 minutes with stop clock in the final 2:00 minutes. - 24-sec. shot-clock by scorekeepers count --keeper will announce 5-secs left. - FGs are worth 2 pts, 3FGs are 3, FTs are 1, just like in full-court. - 2 FTs will be awarded for shooting fouls, 3 for 3FGs, 2 FTs bonus after 5 team fouls. - Ball changes possession after each basket and has to be "checked." - All changes in possession have to be taken behind the 3-pt line. All games would be played Wednesday nights from 7-10pm at MLK High School (65th Street & Amsterdam Ave.) unless otherwise notified. If this is something you're interested in, please contact Ren Hsieh (ren@fastbreaknyc.com) or post a comment below.
Bart Simpson Jul 4 2008 11:05 AM Holy shit... I didn't do it. re: UNCLE SAM LO Jul 4 2008 10:28 AM Why, so you can all die together? That's not even Sam... REAL funny jackass. All you numb-nuts pretending to be somebody else on the forum are real FUCKING geniuses, aren't you? So funny you must be laughing in your chair just thinking about what you're gonna write, little corn chips just falling out your mouth into your naked lap. We're all so glad you have time in your life to defecate such gems for us. THANK you. THANK you. We would not be complete without you. Happy 4th of July. UNCLE SAM LO Jul 4 2008 8:58 AM happy fourth of july kids. be safe and no drinking and driving, unless of course you're taking home a pack of wild laker girls to have a massive orgy with. then, and then only, will i allow drinking and driving. FBNYC Jul 3 2008 9:34 PM Rich Chang, Harris Chung, Chris Youn, Felipe Alfonso and James Choi are the first team to submit an entry to the Men's Open division. Anybody takers? question Jul 3 2008 5:44 PM is the league starting the 12th or pushed back to the 19th? I hope the league is pushed back to 19th! re:FBNYC Jul 3 2008 4:26 PM i say we wait till the 19th because it would be the best saturday of my life..fastbreak and the Dark Knight come out on the same day...oh boy!! and plus i think 2 more teams are going to join the league, making it 10 teams and 8 make the playoffs re:JL Jul 3 2008 3:46 PM well, who are u?? and why u wanna know? re:JL Jul 3 2008 3:28 PM all due respect, excuse me but who are you? FBNYC Jul 3 2008 2:26 PM This league could start as early as July 9th if there's enough teams and more could get tacked on as we go. If there's enough interest to wait until July 16th, we could do that. re: Dream Team Jul 3 2008 2:17 PM but why would he be mad?? re: Dream Team Jul 3 2008 2:14 PM You obviously have never seen YY mad... re: Dream Team Jul 3 2008 1:57 PM murder?? re: Dream Team Jul 3 2008 1:19 PM I think Young would murder the both of them by the end of the game. Dream Team Jul 3 2008 1:04 PM DQ Johny and Young when Jul 3 2008 12:13 PM might the league be projected to begin. This is definitely a cool idea. JL Jul 3 2008 11:37 AM 8 already?? when does it start?? woo woOOOO! Jul 3 2008 11:31 AM 8 confirmed teams. It's officially a league. JL Jul 3 2008 10:31 AM yessssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!! i am so in.
