+Alpha Thelema Do you think that all 150 people who liked this comment are also grammatically incompetent, and you're some kind of genius? On the surface the comment may seem like a grammatical error, but he's actually using the phrase "attempted to dunk" like a single grammatical object. Like.. "The guy attempted to dunk" is fine, right? He's making an exclamation like "That 'attempted-to-dunk' was priceless." He should've used quotes or some other type of punctuation to make it more clear, I suppose, to prevent sanctimonious jerks from coming in and recommending grammar books.
You wish they had *fewer* political skits tho. Political skits are discrete, so you use "fewer". If it was a continuous quantity you were describing, then you could use "less". For example, I wish they had less atmospheric pressure in their skits.
Shoes squeak everywhere, not just wood floors. My shoes squeak on asphalt and concrete and tile. You haven't heard shoes squeak in the school hallways?
When I played in High School we used to play scrimmages in Concrete gyms and our shoes would squeak all the time. It just sounds a bit different but still squeaks. Fun fact we used to put sodas on the floor and step over them so our shoes would have more traction on the concrete floors lol.

@MUFC Daniel tosh “I get it; soccer’s the most popular sport on the planet. That’s because half the world can’t afford AC. And that’s about how long you have to run just to get tired enough to fall asleep in these godforsaken countries.”
I'm not even kidding. One time I was filming for a show and some extras had to play basketball and that was almost exactly what happened. It was hilarious😂😂
It didn't show that at all, and this is coming from a big Kenan fan. You're completely wrong because the material and purpose didn't afford him the chance to properly show his range, and I suspect Thompson would agree with me.
Yeet The doughnut I mean it was the same type of thing but the scenario was different. It's not really a ripoff because snl created both skits. They were both super original and funny, and I think that this wasn't a ripoff at all.
I like SNL, watch it every time it's on. But to be honest there aren't a lot of sketches where I literally lough out loud. This one was definitely one of the best!
I’m not one to watch a movie twice, or read a book over again, or see the same SNL clip a second time. But this one just never gets old for me. I laugh out loud every time.

I mean, you don't even watch old Chris Farley clips twice? Like ever? You have wounded me to death Lisette. I shan't recover, this is your fault and I hope you're happy.
@ - I mean, I don't watch them on purpose because I can't get over what a tragic loss this was to humanity (not even being dramatic -- at. all.) But I do catch them unintentionally like every time Adam Sandler cashes in on those clips for clout -- like the SNL retrospective. It feels like a dagger to the heart each time. I mean, I grew up quoting the man in the van down by the river. (Which is imho how he should have been honored for eternity, with a burial in a van down by the Hudson River.) 😢😢😢
"Please Don't Take Off Your Shoes" "GUYS STOP FIGHTING" "I took a sports movement class at Juliard" "I don't know what that is but stop it" "Yea. You guys are still fired" "I was in a stage production of Basketball Diaries" "Stop hugging"
My sister is in theater, and was completely losing it when she watched this. She was all like "That's how theater kids are when it comes to sports xD". My bro and I came downstairs to see what the big deal was, but it was already over. Thank god for RUclips.
so if you're out hiking and you're attacked by a bear, you'll start singing, or you're helping a friend move and when it's time to lift boxes, you'll start singing
the background characters are funny and all, but the cliche movie they're making about the troubled kid being helped by the wise basketball coach is also hilarious 😂
one of my favorite sketches from SNL but aside from the comedy, that camera and production work on the 'film' before the dialog kicks in is actually so good compared to a lot of movies lol. It's so under appreciated
I could not stop laughing while watching this. My mom came into my room and we watched this video again and were both laughing so hard that my dad had to watch it too. Its one of the funniest SNL skits! omg.
I played background as a semi pro baseball player for a Hallmark movie called Casa Vega. All of us were so bad that during the big game scene all the background audience was talking shit about us. Loudly. Very loudly.
Love it how their attempt at basketball authenticity with the repeated referring to the ball as "the rock" pairs with their actual basketball skills. This skit is too funny!
that attemped to dunk was priceless

hey check out book fucker over here correcting people's grammar
*jon butler* "book fucker" 😂💀
lmao looks like "book fucker" deleted his comment once he realized what a douche he was
"I took a sports movement class at Juilliard" 😂
And the director accepted it!!!!!
best part
Nick Williams can you please tell about this joke ? I could not get it....sorry
nushrah Juilliard is a performing arts school, so he was saying he learned how to play basketball by taking an acting class.
nushrah it's the best performing arts school in the world, with a less than 1% acceptable rate
The montage of the background guys screwing up... this is absolutely my new favorite SNL skit. Well done, SNL. Well done
David Johnson snl is back. wish they had less political skits tho
You wish they had *fewer* political skits tho. Political skits are discrete, so you use "fewer". If it was a continuous quantity you were describing, then you could use "less". For example, I wish they had less atmospheric pressure in their skits.
I can't help myself. I'm sorry. I need help.
you forgot tho. Also you is prounounced "u".
I agree, my tummy hurts :D
the way jimmy says "we popped the rock" so emphatically at 2:21
Them saying rock is the best part of this lol
I love how they gave the squeaky noises when they aren't even playing on wood lol
Shoes squeak everywhere, not just wood floors. My shoes squeak on asphalt and concrete and tile. You haven't heard shoes squeak in the school hallways?
@@actioninmyphannypack school hallways have squeaky floors tho, I've never head shoes squeak on concrete or asphalt
Shoes often squeak when playing basketball outdoors.
When I played in High School we used to play scrimmages in Concrete gyms and our shoes would squeak all the time. It just sounds a bit different but still squeaks. Fun fact we used to put sodas on the floor and step over them so our shoes would have more traction on the concrete floors lol.
Shoes squeak anywhere bud
The hidden gem is this line "We have to throw it this hard for it to bounce"
Wait when was this line
Umang Mehta 2:21 or like 2:22
I watched it again and I laughed so hard at that line that I literally had tears in my eyes. I don't think I've laughed that hard in ten years!
"We popped the rock." 😂
"We popped the rock"

George McClellan you’re fired
"I don't know what that is but stop"😂😂😂
lmao i was dying
the part where he says i don't know what that is but stop i WAS LIVING LAUGHING, NOT DYING BUT LIVING
I teach highschool, and I probably say this 20 times per day.
Another hidden gem:
1:24 Keenan: “But Robby you’re good”
*quick sideways look at these two idiots playing basketball*
Thanks for pointing this out. Hilarious subtlety 😂😂😂
DEADDDD
3:38 they look back at the same time
Nice one
Stephen Quintana you mean 2:38
This is honestly one of the funniest SNL sketches ever. I was literally dying of laughter throughout the whole thing😂
You must be easily amused. And apparently haven't seen any Saturday Night Live pre-2000.
when Fallon starts staring into the camera i almost died haha i had to hit rewind on this video like 5 times til it became unfunny lol

Ashley Silva lol same
I bout died
this was awesome.
Yeah, usually the last skit is pretty bad, but this had me rolling.
Same that was hilarious
sometimes the best kind of comedy is the kind that has nothing to do with anything
isnt that the "seinfeld" or better yet "larry david" formula?
I think Mikey Day and Alex Moffat wrote this. I love it whenever i see Moffat and Day on the same skit. It's always awesome.
EXACTLY! Hahaah they are great
What other skits have they been in together?
@@celecha The Don Jr and Eric Trump sketches on Weekend Update are hilarious. Mikey Day is always funny, his timing is perfect.
@@JessicaKennedy367 agree that Mikey Day is seriously so good
Best part of the whole skit for me:
“basketball diarAEYs”
that wadnt the best part at all
he suddenly became a Californian
we Popped tHe ROck
im glad someone said it!
I like how the director was so on their side after they made that shot. lmao
For 5 seconds.
"Yeah you guys are still fired"
He was pointing at them like he knew they had it in them all along 😂😂😂

BrittDawggg Arf Arf! Let her have it
Never said she was working on a block buster. I'd believe it.
i believe you, watching people that don't play basketball try to play basketball looks a lot like this. its true.
It's not so much that people don't play basketball, this is what people look like when they haven't WATCHED a minute of real basketball.
Pass the rock! Go get the rock! Rock! PASS THE ROCK! Get the rock! pass the rock. ROCK! Pass the rock! Rebound.
The rock popped we popped the the rock
Kenan showed he can be a serious drama actor as well. What a talent. Very very underrated
It didn't show that at all, and this is coming from a big Kenan fan. You're completely wrong because the material and purpose didn't afford him the chance to properly show his range, and I suspect Thompson would agree with me.
@@kevina3744 buddy said "I suspect Thompson would agree with me"
@@ethantownsend2543Yes, he would agree with me over the morons in the comments section who get everything wrong about this segment.
ok kevin
@@ElrondMcBong. I was going to agree that Kenan could potentially be a great dramatic actor, but Kevin made everything awkward in here.
"I took a sports movement class in juliard" 😂😂😂
this is the funniest thing i've seen in a long time lol
Mark Cooper agreed.
Mark Cooper this was just a ripoff of Andy samberg's I AM YOUR MOTHER skit
Yeet The doughnut I mean it was the same type of thing but the scenario was different. It's not really a ripoff because snl created both skits. They were both super original and funny, and I think that this wasn't a ripoff at all.

True, really the last one I laughed out loud at was Justin Timberlake with Kermit in 2003.
Yea there's way more misses than makes. So I guess this skit was a metaphor for the show tbh.
Yeah I was literally on the ground and I couldn't stop laughing. My roommates were tryna get new to shit the hell up lol.
You know stuff like this just proves that most of the time you don't need a deeper meaning with humor, you need a ball to the FACE!
Or a pie to the face also works.
Tflexxx02 Not as well tho...
yo mama
This guy is the world's most patient director.
“Yep, you guys are still fired”
One of the funniest skits they have done all season. "Can you guys stop fighting" 😂
Scott Sterling would be proud.
Thank god I was not the only one that thought of him XD
Red Bearon lol
THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND!
And he is?

Your life must fucking suck
More than your mo. Does

For real Mikey Day is in all the best sketches
I couldn't breathe starting with that very first under-the-hoop bounce. It just went off so hard.
"Please Don't Take Off Your Shoes"
"GUYS STOP FIGHTING"
"I took a sports movement class at Juliard"
"I don't know what that is but stop it"
"Yea. You guys are still fired"
"I was in a stage production of Basketball Diaries"
"Stop hugging"
"We popped the rock!!?"
“Don’t look into the camera pal!”
1:31 Pete Davidson trying not to laugh when he misses badly lol
I’ve seen this skit like 50 times and each time I’m rolling on the ground laughing by the end of it 😂😂😂
I LAUGHED SO HARD AT THIS LMAOOO JIMMY 😂
you guys r still fired , priceless! thats like my boss telling me i was fired before i hit the pavement when i fell off a ladder
At least the director finally canned those fucks.
sha11235 at least he didn't do it before the dunk attempt... 👍🏻
Jeez...
The attempted alli-oop at 2:04 and camera man falling at 2:33 had me crying, I was laughing so hard.
Bad Mama Jama camera man with a boom mic?
Ray Khan Right, that would be the sound guy. Laughing too hard, lol. Thanks for catching that...hahaha.
Bad Mama Jama I
Bad Mama Jama
Boom operator
The sound guy 😂😂😂
This is my favourite sketch, period.
Never fails to get me crying of laughter
The steps they did at 2:14...😂😂😂
I lost it when they threw their shoes to get the ball out of the ring..so relatable😂
this is legit one of the funniest sketches i’ve ever seen i have tears streaming down my face from laughing so hard

Where is she in theater?
Rymael Xynn that's me and my drama friends. we try to play sports but end up singing instead.
+sha11235 Just a Youth theater in our area.
so if you're out hiking and you're attacked by a bear, you'll start singing, or you're helping a friend move and when it's time to lift boxes, you'll start singing
What is your area? Just be general, what state?
I popped the rock!! 😂
the background characters are funny and all, but the cliche movie they're making about the troubled kid being helped by the wise basketball coach is also hilarious 😂
Lmfao "We popped the rock" Fallon looks so concerned about it
I pretty much cried throughout this whole video 😂😂😂
That CGI basketball at "2:22"
My favorite snl skit of all time. I watch this when I need a good laugh.
“I was in a state production of basketball diaries”
😂😂 that movie is barely about basketball 😂😂
It's always great when Jimmy gets to host SNL guys crazy talented gotta love the guy
"Don't look into the camera pal"
I'm cryin
I come back every so often. this one makes me cry.
Great skit, had me rolling. "You're still fired." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
2:03 falls flat on his face lmao had me dying
actual footage of me playing basketball
i feel like mikey day (the guy in the blue) has some real potential. i personally think he's really funny!
He really has done a great job on the show, from the David Pumpkins sketch to the Return Counter and also, "Pop that beanie back on," in Dry Fridays.
Pete is so under appreciated
+Gregor Barclay HHahahahhahahaahh
Yeah I feel like he would be good as a straight up actor. For comedy he has the nuisance down too.
julia kloss What're you talkin about?
rash b he is an actor
You mean over appreciated. He has no versatility.
not gonna lie i haven’t laughed this hard on an snl skit in so fuckin long
The Dead Poet's Society one is worth a look if you want more belly laughs. It's as good as this one.
I died when they hugged then i came back to life just to die when they did the basketball bouncing dance
I wasnt even paying attention to the conversation, just the basketball dudes
That's...the point
Potato Face pretty sure everyone was
Ya no shit dude
It was the whole joke
bro, me, too! lolz jk comments like these are fucking annoying and stupid

The is the only SNL skit where I've literally laughed out loud the entire time... it's been almost a decade for something this funny. More of this.
Nah, it's been funny but you've not a good sense of humor.
"I don’t know what that is but stop!" Is the funniest part to me😂😂😂
This is honestly one of the only RUclips videos that actually make me laugh out loud
2:15 "idk what that is but stop!"
OMGGGG I'm dead!
I didn’t even noticed the background player so when they mentioned it I had to go back
Honestlytheyshouldhavejustleftitatthat
Getting the ball stuck and then throwing shoes at it to unstick it seems pretty realistic to me. I'd have kept that take
The rebound into the face! Oooooh that's gotta hurt!🤣
That last shot and the qierd twirling thing was just 😋🤣🤣🤣
I haven't laughed this hard in a while holy shit. I didn't think I'd ever laugh until I couldn't breathe again.
This is honestly one of my new favorite SNL skits. I couldn't stop laughing
jimmy fallon: *we popped the rock* hahahahha
this was one of the funniest videos I ever seen
"I was in a stage production of basketball diaries" 😆 🤣 😂
It's funny because it's true. Physical humor always brings me to laughter so hard, people think I'm crying.
That's probably the nicest director ever
EXACTLY!
Mikey's air humping just made my day😂🤣
I can't get enough of this
😂🤣😂🤣😂you guys are still fired😂🤣😂🤣
2:56 Pete looking at the wrong hoop! LOL
When they threw their shoes I spat out a mouthful of food. Rewatched it and spat out another mouthful at the exact same spot lmao

Being that I've been an Extra on multiple occasions, this is so much funnier! Literally the "dont look at the camera" moment is SO real
