Good players don't have to foul to score. Don't get me wrong, it provides an advantage (shirt pulling, elbows, grabbing wrists), but the best ball players I've played with try not to do this.
You're playing at pretty public places, so everyone thinks they are Michael Jordan. If you want proper competitive play without the hassle of being fouled unfairly then join a competitive league of some sort with refs, etc.
That being said, there are PLENTY of good pick up games. If anything go with a crew of five and just play the other team. That way you can get the good fundamentals you deserve.
However, the race of a pickup game doesn't mean **** nowadays. Most people just front like they are hard: white, black, spanish, it doesn't matter. If anything stand up for yourself a few times and it won't happen anymore... or you'll get fucked up if you are really playing on a rough court, lol, but I doubt that's the case.
