=Basketball = = Basketball is a physical game where there a 10 players on the court at once (5 players from each team) trying to score points by either shooting or laying up the ball into the hoop which is 2 points. But if a player shoots the ball from outside the 3 pointers line it counts as 3 points. Each game lasts for 48 minutes with 12 minute quarters. = = The rules in the game are very basic: Never take more than 2 steps if you stop bouncing the ball because the ref will call it as a travel, don't start bouncing the ball agian if you bounced it and stopped or it will be called as double dribble, you're not allowed to pass back to your own side once you pass the half way line or the ref will call it a cross court and the ball will go to the opposing team. For offence, you're not allowed to stay in the key for longer than 3 seconds, not allowed to foul the players (touching them physially with your hands) and players are not allowed to push the defending players roughly or it'd be considered as a charge. = = My favourite team would be L.A Lakers because their team has had many greats including Magic Johnson, Shaquille O'Neill, Kobe Bryant, WIlt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. A memorable game was when Kobe Bryant scored 81 points againt the Toronto Raptors in 2006 on January 22nd. But this was only the 2nd most score in the NBA hisory. The 1. scorer was WIlt chamerlain averaging approximately 50 points in a season and at the peak of his game scored 100 points. =
