A "brick" is a very bad shot that is usually way off target. It is like throwing a heavy brick instead of the basketball and often hits a part of the rim or backboard in such a way that is makes a loud noise like a brick or quickly bounces away like a brick.

A "BRICK" Is a missed shot, when the basketball draws contact with the rim and bounces off.

Brick is when Shaq shoots a free throw! really ugly missed shot... some people shoot so many bricks (Tim Duncan for example) that it looks like they're building a house up there on the rim!!!

A missed shot, hence the reason when the player is in the act of shooting, the opponent will yell 'brick' to throw the shooter off.

It means a missed shot where the basketball hits the backboard and nowhere near the net.

A "brick" is a common slang term in basketball for a shot that bounces off the rim.
Hope this helps!

When you shoot it short of the rim. Joker is right it's like throwing a brick because it doesn't go as far as usual and it hits absolutly nothing it is meant to
