Basketball Rules and Regulations

When the referee throws the ball up between two players to start a game, that is called a jump ball.

the block is the neutral zone, which is literally the 8"x12" block on the floor. it's the only marking on the entire floor that isn't 2" wide, so it's not hard to find. the point of this block is to separate the bottom 2 players from the other players during a free throw, so as to give them a slight advantage in getting the rebound, since the 2 players closest to the basket are always the opposing team (why the opposing team usually gets the rebound during a free throw). now, what you're talking about is when they say "he's on the block" or something like that; they are essentially talking about anywhere around that block, essentially anywhere close to the basket, but not directly in front of it.

There is no height limit to be in the NBA as long as you can play and match with the other players.

if it is a kick off then none but if it is a kick after a goal then 1

the kick off in football is only worth 1 point 2 The kickoff is designed to place the ball in play after a team scores points. The kickoff is worth no points.

It couls mean many things. You may be sick, have eaten something bad, or ate food that did not sit well with you. Also,some people get motion sickness in cars, planes, buses, trains, and roller coasters. Pregnant women may experience morning sickness.

1-2. Wether its a flagrant 1 or 2. if it's a flagrant 2 you will be ejected. If you get a flagrant 1 you will not be ejected but the opposing team will shoot free shows. It always depends on the severity of the foul.

no. no way

acctually it is perfectly leagal to do that. as long as your hands dont make contact with the player shooting, you can do it all game long. in fact it is a good stategy to use if you are contesting a shot from a taller player.

The first answer is correct. The second answer is incorrect. It is a technical foul to face guard a player at all levels through college. However, it is allowed to an extent in the NBA (eye guarding is allowed).

Usually this is a descretionary call. It should be a technical foul, but the ref will give ample time to correct the problem (3-5 Seconds). If play starts with more than 5 players, then it is an automatic technical foul.

It depends on where you are when you shoot it. If your feet are behind the three point line, then the jump shot is worth 3 points if your feet are on or in front of the three point line then the jump shot is worth 2 points.

7th graders should be shooting/playing on a hoop of standard height. Which is 10 feet.

A Basketball Backboard is 72 inches long.

If the foul was committed in the act of shooting the basket counts. If the foul occurred before the shot was taken the basket does not count.

He watches over every player on offense who could get the ball. Then, he assesses what might happen in the play. If he thinks that the quarterback will pass the ball, then he guards a wide receiver. If he thinks that the halfback or fullback will run the ball, then he prepares for the run. Essentially, he is the last line of defense on the defensive team.

Well, in the NBA during a game he will be "injected" from the game once he committed 2 technicals, meaning he cannot participate in the rest of the game, he can't even sit on the bench, he has to leave. And a person cannot get 8 technicals, because they'll get suspended once they get 7 technicals, this can happen during the finals and the season.

a layup is a shot made right beside the basket. It is usually a running shot that is quickly released and banked off the backboard. It is used because it is a high percentage shot and it is an easy way to score when running toward the goal without having to slow down and shoot.

There is no limit to the amount of players that can be on a college football roster during the regular season. However, during the off-season the NCAA regulates that a total of 105 players are allowed on the roster.

5 on a court and 5 the bench everyone gets one position so you can only shifft people in the same position

Offensive, defensive, technical, and flagrant. Offensive is when your team has the ball and is trying to score and someone on your team fouls a defensive player. Defensive is the opposite of offensive. Technical is when a player or is being unsportsmanlike to a player, coach, or ref. If you are T'd up (called for a technical foul) twice, you are ejected from the game and may receive fines or suspensions depending on how often you get technical fouls and the reason you got the technical foul. Flagrant is intentionally fouling a player very hard, typically resulting in injury/ies. Examples are stopping a layup by checking someone with your body (imagine Shaquille O'Neal colliding with Steve Nash and think of the impact). If the flagrant foul is bad enough, it can become a flagrant 2. If you get a flagrant 2 you are ejected immediately.

you put mustard, whipped cream,ketchup and everything else you want it to look like.shake it aroung in your mouth.make sure its really stirred up and then just open your mouth when your parents are watching and say you were feeling sick!its really easy.if you dont like that combination of food then just put diff foods together.like the food you ate that day.

== == == == In most elementary schools, the gyms have hoops as of 10 ft., the regulation height of a basketball hoop for the NBA. Outside on the blacktop, the hoops usually range from about 9ft. to the hoops that are too high at 11ft. Some of the hoops are put in awkwardly and end up being too tall or too short.

Generally in the school buildings the gyms have the hoops at 10 feet high which is the standard height of high school, college, and the NBA. However out on the playgrounds, you will see them at 8 or 9 feet high. Many times kids in 1st and 2nd grade will play games on a lower 8 foot hoop.

23 feet 9 inches from the center of the goal from behind the arc.

It should fit.

they get 2 shots from the freethrow line if they miss and 1 shot if they make it (:
