“Ball is life”

“Ball is life” is a saying that has been printed on many posters. The saying “ball is life” is a reverse of the older saying, “life is a ball.” The “ball” usually refers to basketball, and excelling at basketball is “life.”
   
“Ballislife” was trademarked with a first use on May 22, 2005, and a first use in commerce on October 22, 2007. There is a Ballislife.com website and Twitter account.

Urban Dictionary
Ball is Life
A term used by fake ballers, whom think of themselves as the next Lebron, wear elite socks, and generally play basketball often. However it is overused often and taken out of context.
