In basketball what is the consequence of an unsportsmanlike conduct foul?
This question is impossible to completely answer, thanks to FIFA's Law Five, which enumerates all authority to the referee. He can do what he wants, basically, so there's no way to simulate every referee's behavior in response to every action that merits a foul.
However, there are certain procedures to follow in certain cases. If the ball is kicked completely over the touch line (sideline, goal line, whatever you want to call it), the team that didn't kick it out is awarded a throw-in at that spot.
Fouls are a different matter, though. They are general violations of personal conduct on the field. They can include hand balls, pushing, shielding off the ball, punching, elbowing, etc. Based on the severity of the misdeed, either a direct or an indirect free kick is awarded to the team that did not commit the foul. An indirect kick is a free kick that requires a teammate's touch before it can be scored. Basically, a direct kick can be a shot on goal, whereas an indirect kick has to be a pass. If a foul is committed within the goal box, the other team is awarded a penalty kick, which is a direct kick taken twelve yards from the center of the opposing team's goal.
Also, if the foul is severe enough, the referee has the power to award yellow and red cards (bookings). A yellow card, usually awarded for somewhat severe foul, is known as a "caution," primarily because it doesn't do anything. Two yellows equal a red card, though, and a red results in automatic and permanent ejection from the match. Red cards can be given without having earned two yellows, though. This is called a straight red, and is generally awarded for exceptionally flagrant offenses.
The technicalities of bookings vary from league to league and tournament to tournament. For example, in the World Cup, a yellow card is merely a caution of a red card, and the only danger in racking up single yellows throughout the tournament is a predetermined number of yellows each player is allowed to accrue before he or she is suspended. However, in high school American games, the yellow card sends a player off the field until the team's next substitution.
Clearly, the specifics of bookings are rather ambiguous, but just remember that two yellows equal a red, and a red is an automatic and permanent ejection from the match.

What are the benefits of the NBA?
The NCAA was founded in 1906 to protect young people from the dangerous and exploitive athletics practices of the time.
The rugged nature of early-day football, typified by mass formations and gang tackling, resulted in numerous injuries and deaths and prompted many college and universities to discontinue the sport. In many places, college football was run by student groups that often hired players and allowed them to compete as non-students. Common sentiment among the public was that college football should be reformed or abolished.
President Theodore Roosevelt summoned college athletics leaders to two White House conferences to encourage reforms. In early December 1905, Chancellor Henry M. MacCracken of New York University convened a meeting of 13 institutions to initiate changes in football playing rules. At a subsequent meeting December 28 in New York City, 62 colleges and universities became charter members of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States (IAAUS).
The IAAUS officially was constituted March 31, 1906, and took its present name, the NCAA, in 1910. For several years, the NCAA was a discussion group and rules-making body, but in 1921 the first NCAA national championship was conducted: the National Collegiate Track and Field Championships. Gradually, more rules committees were formed and more championships were created, including a basketball championship in 1939.
A series of crises brought the NCAA to a crossroads after World War II. The "Sanity Code" − adopted to establish guidelines for recruiting and financial aid − failed to curb abuses. Postseason football games were multiplying with little control. Member institutions were increasingly concerned about how the new medium of television would affect football attendance.
The complexity of those problems and the growth in membership and championships demonstrated the need for full-time professional leadership. Walter Byers, previously a part-time executive assistant, was named executive director in 1951, and a national headquarters was established in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1952.
Byers wasted no time placing his stamp on the Association. A program to control live television of football games was approved, the annual Convention delegated enforcement powers to the Association's Council and legislation was adopted governing postseason bowl games.
As college athletics grew, the scope of the nation's athletics programs diverged, forcing the NCAA to create a structure that recognized varying levels of emphasis. In 1973, the Association's membership was divided into three legislative and competitive divisions − I, II and III . Five years later, Division I members voted to create subdivisions I-A and I-AA (renamed the Football Bowl Subdivision and the Football Championship Subdivision in 2007) in football.
The NCAA began administering women's athletics programs in 1980 when Divisions II and III established 10 championships for 1981-82. A year later, the historic 75th Convention adopted an extensive governance plan to include women's athletics programs, services and representation. The delegates expanded the women's championships program with the addition of 19 events, many of them Division I and National Collegiate (all division) championships.
The 1980s were tumultuous. The period was marked by many serious and high-profile cases involving rules violations. Questions about academic standards abounded, and the Association responded in 1983 with the adoption of Convention Proposal No. 48, which strengthened academic requirements for prospective student-athletes. In 1984, the NCAA lost control of regular-season football television rights when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against the Association in a landmark antitrust case.
As the complexity of the enterprise grew, college and university presidents became more involved in the governance of the Association. In 1984, the NCAA established the Presidents Commission, a group of presidents from the three divisions charged with setting an agenda for the Association.
