As you can see, on the 7dii, 6400 ISO is IMHO is much more usable than the original 7D.
Also, not all ISO 6400 is the same noise wise for the same scene, it is more about the EV level.
IE: noise & grain on ISO 6400 f2.8 1/800 is much less than the same scene under lower lighting conditions needing ISO 6400 f2.8 1/50 ss. (you can see the second example has 4 less stops of light).
Anyway, in the gyms, if you properly expose, or ETTR (expose to the right), ISO 12800 is still usable at web size. I probably last year posted some boys basketball at 6400-16000 ISO if you want to search after May1, 2015.
As far as focal length, for the school aged boys, I typically sit 3 ft behind baseline under the net and use a 24-70 f2.8ii. I would find 85mm way to long, and f1.8 way to shallow for the under the backboard shots. The 70mm is decent out to the free throw line.

Your totally right! Once they get past the free throw line, i switch over to a 24-70 2.8 or a 35 1.4. The 85 is far too shallow which leads me to shoot between 2 and 2.4. Im planning on buying a rokinon 14 2.8 and im super excited to see what images that produces when used from behind the net and when paired with a PW!
