Basketball, but points are scored by throwing the ball up through the hoop.
You can use your feet to manipulate the ball.
Points:
1 point if the ball comes back down and hits the rim or backboard.
2 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor within the free through rectangle.
3 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor outside of the free through rectangle and inside the 3-point line.
5 points if the ball falls back down and hits the floor outside of the 3-point line.
If any of those shots are made by bouncing the ball off the floor, then thought the bottom of the hoop, the point value is doubled for every landing zone.
If a player on the enemy team catches the ball after it has a been launched though the hoop, the shooting team gets only 1 point, as if the ball had hit the hoop or backboard.
If a player on the shooting team interferes with the ball's fall after being launched through the hoop, no point is scored.
On defense, any measure up to pushing is legal. Any defensive action that causes another player to fall is considered illegal, unless the referee can reasonably determine that the defensive action should not have been forceful enough to knock the player down. Lowering one's shoulder and charging another player is illegal.

The years in which a basketball player "ages". Like dog years but faster, as in a normal NBA player retires much earlier than normal jobs.

When you play basketball or any type of sport / activity then you don't wash your sweaty balls and ass. Effect is greatly intensified if you have especially hairy groin.
Ew, Rudy went to sleep with basketball crotch last night and now his leopard blanket smells like sweaty ass and balls.

A fast paced up style of play reminiscent of the show time Lakers of the 80's. Led by Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, this dynamic team is set to be remembered for ages. Laker fans should be afraid. Very afraid. Especially any Laker fan going by the name of "Black Mamba" or "Kris" as this is associated with a person long since past their prime. Much like that loser ball hog Kobe. Clipper basketball should only be enjoyed by people that like watching exciting players. People who root for crappy teams just because they once had Shaq, need not apply. Clipper basketball fans don't root for laundry. Their time is now!!!!!
Wow, what a game! Did you see that dunk by Blake?
No I was just watching Kobe flop on the ground for 40 minutes.
Oh, then you weren't watching Clipper basketball like me!

A basketball widow is a woman whose man is figuratively married to the beautiful game. He can't tear himself away from the box except in extenuating circumstances (not including grabbing a can of beer during breaks)
My friend complains that she's now a basketball widow; once the game is on, her husband has time for no one and nothing else but his TV and his mentor with whom he analyzes each game all season long.
