what's the game of basketball

what's the game of basketball:


Basketball is a team sport between two teams of five players on the field that is played by hand
The goal is to score more points than the opposing team by scoring baskets, that is to say by passing the ball through a ring placed above the ground.

STORY:

-Basketball was invented in 1891 by James Naismith, a Canadian physical education teacher at Springfield College in Massachusetts (United States). He tried to take his students between football seasons and baseball during the winter, during which the sport outside was difficult. Naismith also wanted them to find an activity where physical contact is restricted to avoid the risk of injury.

One day, he took the idea of an ancient Mayan ball game and put two fishing crates on the ramps of the gym. The purpose of his students was to enter a ball into the wooden crates to score a goal. The boxes are in height, that's why this game needed as much skill than brute force. Naismith quickly established 13 rules [2] to make this feasible set.

This sport was baptized basketball, which literally means in English: "balloon basket." The first match history took place December 21, 1891 and ended with the score of 1-0.



 THE FIELD:
 
28 m long, 15 m wide; the three circles are used for in-between and the implementation of free throws; Cart is advanced 1.20 m in the ground, it is placed at 3.05 m high, has a diameter of 45 cm.

GAME:
There are two referees, a brand of table; each half lasts 2 quarter time 10 minutes, or 40 minutes total for a meeting. Opposed two teams of 5 players. Each basket is worth 2, except free throws 1 point, and baskets that are launched from behind the 3-point line.

Fouls:

The referee signals that a foul has been committed.
Main articles: Personal foul (basketball) and Technical foul
An attempt to unfairly disadvantage an opponent through certain types physical contact is illegal and is called a personal foul. These are most commonly committed by defensive players; however, they can be committed by offensive players as well. Players who are fouled either receive the ball to pass inbounds again, or receive one or more free throws if they are fouled in the act of shooting, depending on whether the shot was successful. One point is awarded for making a free throw, which is attempted from a line 15 feet (4.6 m) from the basket.
The referee is responsible for judging whether contact is illegal, sometimes resulting in controversy. The calling of fouls can vary between games, leagues and referees.
There is a second category of fouls called technical fouls, which may be charged for various rules violations including failure to properly record a player in the scorebook, or for unsportsmanlike conduct. These infractions result in one or two free throws, which may be taken by any of the five players on the court at the time. Repeated incidents can result in disqualification. A blatant foul involving physical contact that is either excessive or unnecessary is called an intentional foul (flagrant foul in the NBA). In FIBA, a foul resulting in ejection is called a disqualifying foul, while in leagues other than the NBA, such a foul is referred to as flagrant.
If a team exceeds a certain limit of team fouls in a given period (quarter or half) – four for NBA and international games – the opposing team is awarded one or two free throws on all subsequent non-shooting fouls for that period, the number depending on the league. In the US college and high school games, if a team reaches 7 fouls in a half, the opposing team is awarded one free throw, along with a second shot if the first is made. This is called shooting "one-and-one". If a team exceeds 10 fouls in the half, the opposing team is awarded two free throws on all subsequent fouls for the half.
When a team shoots foul shots, the opponents may not interfere with the shooter, nor may they try to regain possession until the last or potentially last free throw is in the air.
After a team has committed a specified number of fouls, the other team said to be "in the bonus". On scoreboards, this is usually signified with an indicator light reading "Bonus" or "Penalty" with an illuminated directional arrow or dot indicating that team is to receive free throws when fouled by the opposing team. (Some scoreboards also indicate the number of fouls committed.)
If a team misses the first shot of a two-shot situation, the opposing team must wait for the completion of the second shot before attempting to reclaim possession of the ball and continuing play.
If a player is fouled while attempting a shot and the shot is unsuccessful, the player is awarded a number of free throws equal to the value of the attempted shot. A player fouled while attempting a regular two-point shot, then, receives two shots. A player fouled while attempting a three-point shot, on the other hand, receives three shots.
If a player is fouled while attempting a shot and the shot is successful, typically the player will be awarded one additional free throw for one point. In combination with a regular shot, this is called a "three-point play" or "four-point play" (or more colloquially, an "and one") because of the basket made at the time of the foul (2 or 3 points) and the additional free throw (1 point).
