If a usually consume around 3800 calories spread on 6 meals (plus milk, juice, whatever else i drink/eat...) throughout the day (in order to be at about 500 cals above maintaineance per day) but play basketball for 1 and a half hours and thus burn some 900 cals more I should eat about 3 more meals (of around 300 cals each) so I still have the same conditions to bulk up. However I find it very very very hard to eat 9 meals in one single day lol. But I guess eating caloric dense food would be a better option. So maybe anybody has the same "problem" and can suggest to me what type of meals I could eat so I get those 900 cals more?
weight lifting,other sports, nutrition?

I doubt you're burning THAT many calories by playing basketball for that amount of time. Atleast no one I know does 
Get a bit more olive oil/flax in there and have it with some tuna. Re-arrange your meals so you have a lot of carbs around basketball.
Try a getting a weight gainer sometime during the day too. Not ideal, but sometimes a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do, and all that.
Just make the meals slightly bigger.
