21/Crunch/Roughhouse


Recommended Posts

I know this is a popular basketball game played by many with the name changing from region to region as well as the rules. So I was curious as to how some of you guys play 21 (my friends and I call it either 21 or crunch). This is how we play it:

 

Usually between 3 different people, sometimes 5

Someone starts the game at the top of the key shooting a 3, if they make it, it's 3 points

Play by 1s and 2s

You get 3 free throws (gotta make them to get more) if you make a shot

One handed tip ins only

If you get tipped, you go back to 0

If you get OVER 11, you're safe. So if you have 15 points and you get tipped, you go back to 11. Though if you're at 11 and you get tipped, back to 0.

Don't play out of bounds or fouls (unless you get mugged or raped)

Tips count as 1 point unless the shot is taken from 2

If player A tries to tip the shot of player B and misses, if player C (or B) tips in the missed tip, Player A goes back to 0, not player B. Whoever touches the ball last while it's in the air, they lose their points.

 

I think that's about it, here are other variations from Wiki...

 

Let me know how you guys play the game, I find it interesting.
