People are talking about their best moments in other threads, why not talk about the worst too? My most embarrassing moment on the court was when I became Antoine Walker for a day. I shot either 1-6 or 1-7 from 3-point land, and 2 of them were airballs right in a row. This was in front of my AAU coach (it was for another league, but he came to my game). He was disgusted and he actually made me run 5 extra suicides at the end of our next AAU practice lol. That's what made it more embarrassing, because he made it a point to tell my whole AAU team about it haha. The coach was a funny guy, so I wasn't mad at him, we were all laughing. But he was standing on the 3-point line and he said "Dustin Walker was ice cold from downtown this weekend" or something, and he purposely missed about 5 three's in a row. Also, he was doing this while I was running my extra suicides. LMAO. Good times, good times.
I was playing on and 8 and a half foot rim and got facialized by one of my friends, but I got him back.
Well, two games ago, I airballed a free throw, and proceded to miss the other one too. I went 0-2 from the field, and I didnt score. Not much better last game. I got 2 points, missed another 2 free throws and went 1-3..I did get 4 rebounds playing guard though...Last year, I missed a wide open fast break lay up. I felt like hiding in a corner after that. Also, I let a pass slip through my hands, and out of bounds.
I airballed a free throw...and I air balled a jumper from a lil to the left of the free throw line.Not fun...
Hmmm....I am a small player, and 2 years ago I drove to basket and a guy swatted it into the 5th row of the bleachers....very embaressing lol.
I drove it in once and one of the defenders actually pulled my pants down to the point where you can see my ass crack. Wow, I was laughing my ass off. My Coach is a really outgoing guy so he was laughing his ass off too.
Well mine would be not catching passes, but ive masteres that now. I get embarassed when I lose confidence on the court which happens when I play against all the muscly (muscular) seniors. I tend to turn the ball over when I could just drive it...

I fell down and everything... Embarrassing... :cry2: </span>
During practice, We were doing a fast break drill where the guard dribbles down the middle of the court with two wings on each opposite side. It is sort of like the 3 man weave..without the weave(if that makes any sense) Anyway, I forgot to wear my basketball shoes that day and while running down the court at full speed, my shoe slipped off,because it apparently wasn't tight enough, and I slipped half way across the court. The whole team bursted out laughing and it was very embarrassing. What is even worse is I tweaked my wrist pretty bad(most likely a sprain) This was a few years ago but still embarrassing none the less.
In the morning of this day, I had to dig trenches all the way around a baseball field..I have no idea why, it was for one of my baseball teams, after a really rainey day..Well I was so god damn tired, I had no legs, or arm strength left at all..That night way my game, and I slept on the way to the game..During the game I mustve airballed 4-5 shots, since I'm the shooter on the team, I should be taking a good amount of shots each game..I airballed a free throw too, and I never ever miss free throws, so I was just like screw this sh*t I'm taking it to the hoop..I tossed up a floater and I airballed it; which was one of my 5 airballs..I passed the ball for the rest of the game..That was by far my most embarresing game ever..
during a game a few years ago, I got "pants'ed". someone went up for a rebound, and on the way down, some how their foot pulled down my shorts down to my ankles. thank god it wasn't a home game, hahaha.
My team was on defense during a JV home game. The other team put up a shot and I boxed out a guy. Another guy was in front of me. We both jumped for the rebound and I got it, he got my pants with his foot. When we came back down, so did my pants. I threw the outlet pass and we went on a break away, I got to the three point line before I noticed my pants were half way down my butt.I tied my shorts the rest of the season.
Not embarrasing for me but once when I was refereeing a game(a womens game) , this HOT chick who's body just about everyone wanted a piece of, ran down the court and her boobs fell out.... well not exactly her boobs but the tissues that she was using as boobs. Turns out she was flatter than a pool table.
We had a home game my senior year, and I interecepted a pass and took off down court, and attempted to dunk the ball. Instead I didn't even get the ball above the rim, I rim checked it on the very front of the rim, then fell backwards and landed on my back. All my friends saw that and laughed at me. It was my first and last time ever attempting to dunk during a game with people watching.

It didn't hurt that much, I came down leaning back, one of my feet hit then I slipped back. It could have hurt alot worse.
Haha, sorry valo, but that is one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time. ahahahahahahhahaha
I had a wide open 3 with 2 seconds left in teh semifinal games, and by mistake my hand slipped, and I completely airballed teh shot. It was leik 10 feet to teh right. I was so ashamed
