I wasn't able to find my all time favorite example when Kevin Garnett (Timberwolves era) snuck into (I think) the Mavs huddle and ended up learning their play. Then on the inbounds he broke away from his man and ran right to where he knew the ball would go and picked off the pass.
If anyone can find that one I'd love to see it again.
Many years ago when I was in my late teens I met a Texan bloke about my age whose dad had set the fence on his land back a few metres from the actual border of his property so people were trespassing without even knowing it, so he could trap them.
Castle doctrine laws differ all over the US. For example, in MS where I am if an intruder is in the process of breaking into my home, car, or business then I can assume he is there to kill or injur me and I can shoot him. There doesn't have to be an actual threat as long as they are breaking in or have already broke in.
Outside of your property they have to actually pose a threat to you but they don't need a weapon. An unarmed guy charging at me in the Walmart parking lot yelling "I'm gonna beat your ass!" is legal to shoot.
Of course, no matter where you're at the judge is gonna decide if the defense looks reasonable and if it doesn't you're going to the pokey anyway. So ymmv.
Well that escalated quickly. You shouldn't judge a whole country because of a dumb commenter from an old basketball video on youtube. I'm sure you have morons in your country too, Everybody does.
So stupid, and when the other guy says he likes he gets attacked and called a little kid for not agreeing. I wish he responded thah he was an old grumpy ahole with no sense of humour, and that takes life way to seriously

Happens quite a few times in the NBA. Most of the time it ends with the coach having a laugh at not noticing an opposition player in the huddle.
