A term used to describe a type of basketball game that is usually played in prison. The name comes from the word "bing", which is slang for the word "prison". This is named as such because there are many people trying to play basketball at one time using a prison's limited facilites and short recreational time given to the inmates. The game is much more physical than regular basketball and is played on one side of the basketball court. So typically, there could be as many as 10 to 15 people playing at one time on one side of the court.
