Unwritten pickup basketball rules state that you only call fouls if you get bodied on the court. Anything less than blood and everyone will think you’re a p***y, basically. But the baller in black above (standing to the right of double-arm sleeves loser) doesn’t play by those rules, because he called the cops after an “aggressive screen” put him down.
It was an aggressive screen and dude fell lol

The full story from Twitter user @_togs:
Everyone at the gym and dude in the black with hands folded falls from a hard pick.

He gets up tells everyone he’s going to call the police and walks out leaving everyone in gym confused

We thought he was joking til we saw buddy at the front desk on the phone really calling the police 😭

An important note here: double arm sleeves loser is the guy who committed the foul:
Shooting Sleeves was NOT the one who called the police he was the screener not the “screenee”

Cop finally comes and brings them out the gym to talk like it was an elementary school fight. You could tell he was blown cause his time was wasted

Cop leaves and we are still left wondering why…

Because the Internet is still wonderful sometimes, there’s video of the incident that includes a quick interview with police who responded to the call:

There it is. Never call the police because of pickup basketball, or you will get relentlessly shamed.
